Descriptive Statistics Overview

Purpose:

The purpose of this assignment is to review the statistics presented in the articles you reviewed in relation to your clinical topic. You will provide a brief overview of statistics in the studies.  The PICOT question the reflects the clinical areas of interest is;

: For the emergency department (ED) patients (P), does implementing an emergency department information system (EDIS) (I), compared to the day-to-day manual approach (C), reduce ED wait time, and overcrowing (O), within three months.

Directions:

  1. Define the clinical key question of interest.
  2. Identify the studies of the database search that represent the highest levels of evidence found Identify the statistics discussed in the study as it relates to confidence intervals or statistical description.
  3. Discuss the statistical results of the studies identified.
  4. Write a 3- to 5-page paper reviewing the evidence as it relates to confidence.
  5. Follow APA 7th edition format.

Scenario

As the director of the Quality Improvement department for a large trauma center, I believe that purchasing a full-scale simulation room would be a valuable investment in reducing reinfection rates. The simulation room would be equipped with the latest tools and simulations for wound management, sterile surgical processes, infection control, and line placements.

Financial analysis

To determine the feasibility of purchasing the simulation room, we need to conduct a cost-benefit analysis. This analysis will involve calculating the costs of purchasing and maintaining the simulation room versus the potential cost savings from reducing reinfection rates.

If you think the value of an investment will be worth 10% of what it will be in 5 years, you can use these formulas to figure out how much money you will have to save each month to have enough money when the investment is actually worth.

FV = PV × ( 1+1 )n

= 500,000 × ( 1.1 )5

=805,255

The return on investment may be calculated over 5 years with an interest rate of 10% will be.

If you take cash out of a bank account over time, sometimes the money will come back as a negative number because it’s worth less now than when you took it out. But this isn’t always the case. Sometimes the cash comes back as a positive number because it’s worth more now than when you took it out.

If we look at the calculation results, we can see that it would be better to reject the project because the estimated interest for the current values would be paid if we invested it differently, at a rate of 10% over the next 5 years. This is higher than the net present value of the project investment.

Stakeholders:

To ensure the success of this project, we need to involve key stakeholders, including patients, doctors, administrators, infectious control team, quality team, and supplies. It is important to get their input and buy-in to the project to ensure that it meets their needs and expectations.(Huang X, 2018).

Implementation plan:

To succeed in getting the simulation room purchased, we need to develop a comprehensive process that includes a business plan, approval purchase, building the simulation room, and staffing it with trained personnel. The business plan should outline the financial and operational benefits of the simulation room and how it aligns with the trauma center’s goals and objectives. The approval purchase process should involve presenting the business plan to the relevant decision-makers and obtaining their approval. Once the purchase is approved, we can move forward with building the simulation room and staffing it with trained personnel. We should also develop an implementation plan that includes training programs for staff and regular evaluations to ensure that the simulation room is being used effectively.(Huang X, 2018).

This is was question

You are a director of the quality improvement department for a large trauma center. For your department, you feel there is a need to purchase a full-scale simulation room. This simulation room would be outfitted with the latest tools and simulations for wound management, sterile surgical process, infection control, and line placements. The overall goal would be to decrease reinfection rates. The capital need for the simulation center is $500,000, producing a decrease in cost for reinfection rates of $120,000 per year.

Data Collection

Teams can use any dataset for their final project. Following are two sources of data –

Data Analysis: Teams can use any software (e.g., MS Excel, R, Python, IBM SPSS, etc.) to analyze their data. Any analysis method (e.g., regression, classification, time–series analysis, etc.) that is appropriate for the dataset and the problem is acceptable.

Final Project Report: Each team will submit a report that discusses the aspects mentioned below.

Report page size should be Letter (8.5” X 11”) with 1” margins all around; font should be Times New Roman 12 pt. single spaced; and maximum page limit for the report is 8 pages. Tables, graphs, and visualizations should be numbered and near the text that describes them. Following are some of the aspects each team needs to include in the report –

I. Introduction to the problem: A brief discussion on the specific real–world problem the team is trying to solve.

II. Introduction to the dataset: A brief description of the data source and the data collection process. An explanation of how the dataset relates to the real–world problem. Explanation of any steps taken to prepare the data for analysis.

III. Explanation of the variables: Definitions and discussions on each variable in the dataset.

IV.Analysis method: Description of the method used to analyze the data. Justification of the method used to analyze the data (i.e., how the chosen method solves the real–world problem).
