People who have a brush with death occasionally report experiencing a near-death experience, which includes the sensation
Question:
People who have a brush with death occasionally report experiencing a near-death experience, which includes the sensation of seeing a bright light or feeling separated from one’s body or sensing time speeding up or slowing down. Researchers interviewed 1595 people admitted to a hospital cardiac care unit during a recent 30-month period. Patients were classified as cardiac arrest patients (in which the heart briefly stops after beating unusually quickly) or patients suffering other serious heart problems (such as heart attacks). The study found that 27 individuals reported having had a near-death experience, including 11 of the 116 cardiac arrest patients. Make a two-way table of these data. Compute the appropriate percentages to compare the rate of near-death experiences between the two groups. Describe the results.
