Question

Please assist with the following health information managment questions

You take the information from 2015 and compile this Chi square.

	Maternal Death	No Maternal Death	Total
Vaginal Delivery	1	368	369
C-Section Delivery	4	151	155
Total	5	519	524

5. If our null hypothesis is that there is no correlation between delivery method and maternal death, and the result of our Chi square is ​p
​ = 0.013, what interpretation do you give the chief of obstetrics

Answer 1

Solution:-

State the hypotheses. The first step is to state the null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis.

H₀: Delivery method and maternal death are independent(No correlation).
H_a: Delivery method and maternal death are not independent(Correlation).

P value = 0.013

Interpret results. Since the P-value (0.013) is less than the significance level (0.05), we cannot accept the null hypothesis.

Thus, we conclude that there is a correlation between Delivery method and maternal death.
