For Questions 12-17: A researcher is interested in reducing the rate of inpatient falls in acute care hospitals. He conducted a multi-site study and enrolled 100 hospitals. Hospitals were randomly assigned a new intervention to implement with all patients who scored as a fall risk:
Unit 1 – Patients scored as a fall risk wore yellow non-slip socks
Unit 2 – Patients scored as a fall risk had bed alarms installed that notified staff when patient was attempting to get out of bed
Unit 3 – Patients scored as a fall risk had telesitters placed in the room and a staff member watched the monitors and could
communicate with the patient if they began rising from bed
The researcher evaluated the success of the interventions by measuring the fall rate of the hospitals 1 year after implementation of the interventions (falls per 1,000 patient days). The researcher tested the assumptions of normality and homogeneity of variances and both assumptions were met. Here is the SPSS output:
