D 2. For geriatric patients requiring hospitalization, being able to walk Without assistance (known as ambulation) is important for recovery. _A team of medical researchers have developed a new ambulation program intended to increase the chances that geriatric patients achieve ambulation before being discharged from the hospital. The researchers conduct an initial test of the program at two hospitals. At each location, some patients are randomly selected to participate in the program, while the remaining patients do not participate in the program. They are hoprng for a successful test, so that they can apply for further 7 research funding to administer the program at more hospitals. The researchers obtain the following data about the initial test of their program: Participate in program? Achieve ambulation before discharge? No Yes No (# of patients) 5,95 0 9'005 Yes (it of patients) 5,050 1.095 Total (1% of patients) 11.000 10.100 The researchers are extremely discouraged, as these initial results suggest the program doesn't work. If anything, it appears the program is actually making it l_es_s likely that a patient achieves ambulation before discharge. To better understand the results, the researchers take a closer look at the data and observe the following: Hospital A Hospital B Participate in program'.' Participate in prcgram'? Achieve ambulation before discharge? No Yes No Yes N o ( it of patients) 950 9,001) 5 ,000 3' Yes (if of patients) 50 1,000 5,000 9.5 Total (# ofpatients) 1.000 [0.000 [0,000 100 The researchers are puzzled now it appears the program does improve the chances ofachieving ambulati-on before discharge. Required: Why are the researchers coming to different interpretations based on how they analyze the data. 7
