Drug Therapy Trial for Lowering Heart Rate
We will examine the results from a new innovative drug to help lower a patient’s heart
rate. We will first exam the raw numbers form each patient group. Then we will use a statistical
software to produce a t-test analysis. Finally, we will describe all of the results of the analysis.
We will determine whether or not the new innovative drug was effective or not.
The process for this is fairly simple. The first thing you do is collect all of your data. Next,
you will run a T-Test, and write the report. The next step is to summarize the research scenario
and then to justify the reason for running a t-test. At this point you would identify your
hypothesis. Here you interpret the t-test results. Finally, you would provide recommendation.
Our patient groups are broken up into two different groups of twenty-three. The first
group, which is Group 1 was assigned a placebo. The second group, which is Group 2 was
given the new innovative drug. See the table below for the raw data for each patient’s heart rate
after they received their dose of medication.
