Applying Measurement Tools to a Practice Problem

Question 1: What were the challenges in obtaining the data?

Answer: It has been identified in many types of research that there are considerable problems in the obtaining of the data in the health care sector. For example, in the health care sector, the data has no proper source, it remains ambiguous whether this data has served anywhere before in a result- oriented study or not. Since the health care sector involves a direct collaboration among many people in a certain environment, therefore Spath mentions in the chapter Measuring Performance that “Some uncertain problems might arise in gathering and the evaluations of the data ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"1IxNHnHh","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Nettina, Msn, and Nettina 2013)","plainCitation":"(Nettina, Msn, and Nettina 2013)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":118,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/FSR4EHEU"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/FSR4EHEU"],"itemData":{"id":118,"type":"book","title":"Lippincott manual of nursing practice","publisher":"Lippincott Williams & Wilkins","source":"Google Scholar","author":[{"family":"Nettina","given":"Sandra M."},{"family":"Msn","given":"Anp-BC"},{"family":"Nettina","given":"Sandra M."}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2013"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Spath, 2013)”.

Question 2: How the quality indicator was measured in the literature?

Answer: The quality indicators measured in the health care research studies include

Research Methodology: The research methodologies applied in the research in health care includes various research methodologies, Social Science research tool being the primary in all. Each research, therefore, must include multiple functional domains of research to be result oriented.

Findings: There are many aspects of conducting research in the health care sector. The Findings of each research normally presents the aspects which are different from the existing researches. If the findings of any new research do not qualify with the standard of the research in health care, it will not be categorized as authentic.

Originality: Konstevedt mentions that the originality of the work in health care is always linked to the real-time collection of data by applying standard methods of research ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"DaWgG9Hb","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Kongstvedt 2013)","plainCitation":"(Kongstvedt 2013)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":120,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/X5QM3WW9"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/X5QM3WW9"],"itemData":{"id":120,"type":"book","title":"Essentials of managed health care","publisher":"Jones & Bartlett Publishers","source":"Google Scholar","author":[{"family":"Kongstvedt","given":"Peter Reid"}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2013"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Kongstvedt, 2013). Such works then result in new findings and are categorized as the Original Study.

Question 3: What are the gaps in the data?

Answer: The gaps identified in the data relevant to the Health care research includes

Gaps in Patient Engagement techniques

Gaps in data measurement

Gaps in the exact usage of research tools during the research

Gaps in the cultural appropriate usage of tools ADDIN ZOTERO_ITEM CSL_CITATION {"citationID":"kijLdJAM","properties":{"formattedCitation":"(Nettina, Msn, and Nettina 2013)","plainCitation":"(Nettina, Msn, and Nettina 2013)","noteIndex":0},"citationItems":[{"id":118,"uris":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/FSR4EHEU"],"uri":["http://zotero.org/users/local/s8f0QVnP/items/FSR4EHEU"],"itemData":{"id":118,"type":"book","title":"Lippincott manual of nursing practice","publisher":"Lippincott Williams & Wilkins","source":"Google Scholar","author":[{"family":"Nettina","given":"Sandra M."},{"family":"Msn","given":"Anp-BC"},{"family":"Nettina","given":"Sandra M."}],"issued":{"date-parts":[["2013"]]}}}],"schema":"https://github.com/citation-style-language/schema/raw/master/csl-citation.json"} (Nettina, Msn, and Nettina 2013).

Question 4: What are the essential additional sources needed to obtain the data?

Answer: Essential additional sources for gathering the data in the health care sector includes

Data extracted from the patient’s laboratory tests reports

The health records of the consumer

Medicines manufacturing companies and the distributions

From centralized commands in the hospitals
