Research direction

Start by locating Figure 16.1 and read the surrounding section on the complication-rate setting. Review how the figure currently presents one-sided tests, p-values, and confidence intervals, then update the discussion to reflect the issue's concern and verify that the figure and accompanying text remain consistent.

Description

v3

Figure 16.1 - For this type of setting a confidence interval for their true complication rate seems most appropriate. I can't really imagine calculating a p-value here and would not want to do it one-sided (what if she was worse than the underlying rate)?
