Discuss the diagnostic and laboratory findings for client’s with pneumonia.

The focus of Week 1 has been on the theory-practice-research cycle, quantitative and qualitative research, the levels-of-evidence pyramid and the research question.
Quantitative Research Question
Write a quantitative research question using the PICO(T) model about a health or safety issue observed in the Ironridge or Summerville communities. 
Conduct a search of the literature for the quantitative research question.
Describe the literature search strategies (search terms, databases, filters, search results).
How many randomized, controlled trials (RCTs) did you find compared to other types of studies? What level of evidence does an RCT represent? 
Provide a brief, two to three sentence, summary of one quantitative research study.

Qualitative Research Question
Using the same issue, how would you write a qualitative research question using the P (population), I (abstract concept) from the PICO(T) model. What qualitative research method (Phenomenology, Grounded Theory, Ethnography) would you select? The abstract concept and research method must support each other.

Cite at least ONE SCHOLARLY research reference to support your statements in your initial post and at least ONE SCHOLARLY research reference in your response/s to peers. The scholarly research reference requirement supports the focus of this course–advanced research methods and evidence-based practice and assists in extending your and your peer’s research knowledge.
