2.Involves and incorporates: inter-disciplinary experts, those most familiar with a situation,

What electrolyte abnormality do you see with metabolic alkalosis? - Answer>>> Hypokalemia
Levels of Evidence Hierarchy (highest to lowest) - Answer>>> 1. Meta analysis

What is null hypothesis?
What if the null hypothesis is rejected? - Answer>>> -There is no significant relation between

, -Results are due to chance and are not significant in terms of supporting the idea being

happen
-It means the results of the study are not due to chance
What is p-value? - Answer>>> -Number describing how likely it is that your data would have
occurred by random chance (i.e. that the null hypothesis is true).
-0.05 as the standard level of significance
-The smaller the p-value, the stronger the evidence that you should reject the null hypothesis
if P<0.05 it? - Answer>>> -Rejects null hypothesis
-Statistically significant
-A significant result and this would have only arose 5/100 times through chance
-Experimental and control groups are considered to be significantly different
if p>0.05? - Answer>>> -Fail to reject the null hypothesis
-Not statistically significant and indicates strong evidence for the null hypothesis
What is treatment for VAP? - Answer>>> Cover MRSA+ Double antipseudomonal coverage

-Gram neg with antipseudomonal coverage: beta lactam-based agents = Zosyn or
cefepime/ceftazidine or imipenem/meropenem or aztreonam
