Through evidence appraisal and synthesis, I discovered a lot about my team’s topic of amount of exercise related to depression symptoms in college-aged people. Although our topic was specific to an age group I was surprised with the number of articles and appraisal there were for it. The literature appraisal and synthesis did not change my assumptions on this topic. Most of the appraisals showed that with exercise depression symptoms decreased, which was my original assumption. These findings will impact my future nursing practice because I will incorporate exercise into almost every care plan I create. Before reading these articles, I knew exercise was important to maintain proper mental and physical health. However, I know have numerous articles that helped me understand why exercise was so important. I plan to incorporate these finding a lot in my future nursing practice. My team members and I all had similar assumptions about this topic, so we all arrived at very similar conclusions about the findings. Although we came to the same conclusions and there were no challenges to our collaboration, if there were we would make sure to all meet up and talk though these challenges.
