Outcomes assessment using small area analysis
would be appropriate to determine... - answer
Small area analysis is appropriate to look at data in
a prescribed "small" area, such as determining
rates of hospital utilization at individual hospitals
rather than compiling that information into one
statistical average, because there may be
pronounced statistical differences that have been
overlooked. Small area analysis is most often
applied to epidemiologic data and rates of hospital
utilization.
Outcomes assessment using large area analysis
would be appropriate to determine... - answer
Outcomes assessment of large areas, such as
, counties or states, merges data so that the results
often reflect averages that don't accurately reflect
the reality in small areas.
According to systems theory (von Bertalanffy), the
element of a system that comprises actions that
take place in order to transform input is - answer
throughput
The five elements in a system include: - answer •
Input: This is what goes into a system in terms of
energy or materials.
• Throughput: These are the actions that take
place in order to transform input.
• Output: This is the result of the interrelationship
between input and processes.
• Evaluation: This is the process of monitoring
success or failure.
• Feedback: This is information that results from
the process and can be used to evaluate the end
result.
Input (Systems Theory) - answer This is what goes
into a system in terms of energy or materials.
