identify an aggregate-level problem that needs epidemiologic investigation. Propose a rough draft study design to research this problem. the aggregate-level problem that I chose was
• CVA’s that occur after admission
o Typically the signs are there, but they are written off as symptoms of the admitting diagnosis leading them to be missed.
o They have had a lot of patients come in for chest pain or pneumonia and end up in ICU or CCU because they have had a stoke or heart attack since being admitted.

Background:
Cerebrovascular Accident is the primary neurological problem and the third leading cause of death. Stroke patients need self -assessment in activities of daily living. Increasing age, high blood pressure increases the risk of stroke. Scoring system will be followed immediately after admission for early detection and prevention of stroke. The cutoff score will predict the outcomes of stroke patients in the hospital. The symptoms should be classified based on the area of tissue damage in the brain and the need for long term care. Parameters should be set to predict the individual outcomes.
Review of Literature:
The review of the literature related to knowledge of CVA and its occurrence should be reviewed entirely. Etiological factors should be revealed out based on the patient's demographic factors. Risk factors should be identified. Risk assessment and stress management should be included in the study.
Methods:
A descriptive longitudinal Hospital-based study should be conducted in assessing neurological symptoms. Headache, seizure, Glasgow coma scale should be analyzed in this study. A longitudinal study should also be conducted to rule out the level self-care abilities of the patient and the needed assistance. The data can be collected using observations and structured questionnaire method. Ethical considerations, variables, limitations should be taken into account.
Results:
Results were concluded based on the client's response to the Glasgow scale, symptoms, self-care impairment and prevalence. The data should be analyzed using descriptive statistics. The results should show in the form of percentage distribution.

Use the answer sheet provided for the project to identify which (if any) of the events or sitautions described happened in each cases. Use our report template to create a report for the medical staff review committee. Under conclusion discuss one process change that can be implemented to reduce risk exposure and provide at least two ways in which change can be managed smoothly when implementing the new process.
