Data have been collected and analyzed (see attached SPSS.sav and .spv files) for the following clinical question:
Will implementation of a preeclampsia risk factor screening tool for women at 20-36 weeks gestation identify high risk patients and prompt home blood pressure monitoring and disease education by the provider?
The student collected data over a 4-week period after a risk assessment tool was instituted at a busy OB-GYN practice. The student collected data from 99 women eligible for the project at 20-36 weeks gestation (4 in the preintervention group with a diagnosis of preeclampsia, 95 in the postintervention group).
Data were manually extracted from the outpatient medical record and recorded in an excel workbook with two tabs (one tab with the actual data and another for the data definitions). From this point, the data were moved into SPSS using the data collection tab in excel. Using labels from the coding tab in the excel file, value labels and variable labels were entered.
Demographics included maternal age and race/ethnicity were collected.
Outcome variables included whether or not a risk assessment was performed, and the risk assessment level (low, medium, or high). For high-risk patients, identify the extent to which high risk patients compiled with the patient education plan was another data element in the file.
Summarize the data in narrative form and using a table and a figure in an APA7th edition compliant document. See Assignment and Rubric for more detail. Data and SPSS output are attached.
