3. The physician evaluates a 68-year-old new patient who was admitted to Observation status earlier today. According to the family, the patient complained about headaches and blurred vision last week and then became confused and disoriented two days ago. The physician performed a comprehensive history and exam, at which time he noted decreased response to light in one eye and BP of 220/100, but the family denied any previously known or treated hypertension. Suspicious for increased intracranial pressure, medical decision making is listed as high complexity. The patient had a CAT scan of the brain without contrast which was positive for brain lesions. An A-scan bilateral ophthalmology biometry was then performed, and patient was sent to the radiology department for simple therapeutic radiology treatment planning.

Hi i need comment on my homework or something to add. *argue for and against quantitative and qualitative techniques respectively. which ones would you lean towards when conducting an investigation and why?   quantitative techniques, usually presented through surveys, are more practical, take less time, and can design samples in which any person or household of the target audience has the same probability of participating. however, the questionnaires must be carefully written by highly trained professionals, in such a way that they do not contain ambiguous or biased questions, that they are easily understandable by any member of the sample, and that they contemplate all the objectives of the research. besides that they do not allow to deepen in the reason of the facts. qualitative techniques, on the other hand, are based on the observation of natural behaviors, discourses, open responses for the subsequent interpretation of meanings. studying reality in its natural context can be extremely useful to learn more about the phenomenon studied. however, more specialization is required, they are not applicable to statistics, so it is not possible to make measurements, it entails a higher cost per studied population (which is also reduced), whose results do not necessarily represent the general population. i believe that knowing the situation of the general population, through statistics is essential. in addition, because of the possibility of studying a much larger population in less time and with less amount of economic resources, i would lean towards quantitative research.
