Pease give a two to three sentence response for each statement below. for example, You can agree or disagree with the statements & why or why not?

You can add to the statements or ask questions. these statements are about statistics and how its used in healthcare.

A) Nurses use statistics to determine if nursing interventions are effective for patient care. Nurse can use the data to recognize trends that could affect the patients. Some examples of how nurses can use statistics would be with medication side effects and vital signs. I think statistics are a vital part in nursing because it allow us to make the best decision for the care of the patient

B)I can not imagine today's professional environment without accountability, control, and a clear picture of what is going on at every moment in any business. In the medical world, the aspect of statistics becomes even more important. As medical professionals we don't have room for error, we have human lives in our hands. It is important to know exactly how any medication will affect a patient and also have to be aware of the time factor of that effect when providing critical care to the patients. Following protocols established by the doctors is essential in the positive outcome for many of our patients. Statistics serve as a vital tool in understanding and delivering those protocols in our daily routine. I believe that understanding, knowledge, and application of statistics is essential for nurses. The nurses' job is to know exactly how to read the chart, gather and analyze the data, and also apply appropriate protocols in administering specific medicines to patients. Knowledge of statistics is important because a wrong combination of medicines could be dangerous or even result in a patient's death.
