Magnesium Sulfate is administered for preeclampsia as a 4-5 g infusion followed by a 1-2 g/hr continuous infusion. Magnesium Sulfate Injection, USP comes as a 50% solution of magnesium sulfate (mol wt 120.366) in a 2mL vial. You receive an order for 5 grams of Mag Sulfate added to running 500mL D5LR IV bag. How many mL of Magnesium Sulfate, USP should be used?

Part 1:

In 2-4 sentences, explain when would be appropriate to choose the following tests? [Hint: type of variables involved, information the test provides] (2 pts each)

  1. Chi-squared test

  1. Kaplan-Meier Survival Curve

  1. Correlation Analysis

4. Logistic Regression

  1. Tukey’s HSD with ANOVA

Part 2:

Information: A hypothesis of clinical interest was that vitamin C prevents the common cold. A study is organized to test this hypothesis using 20 participants. In the study, 10 were randomly allocated to receive vitamin C capsules and 10 were randomly allocated to receive placebo capsules. The number of colds over a 12-month period for each participant is recorded. The samples were randomly selected, and the populations are approximately normally distributed. Population variances are unknown but assumed to be approximately equal.

In the problems below, you will answer the following question: Is the mean number of colds different between those who take vitamin C and those who do not take vitamin C? (use an α of 0.05)

The average number of colds

Standard deviation

Vitamin C group:

3.3

1.57

Placebo group:

5.7

1.34

Question 4: Jar Game Consider the following game: Players: 2 - We designate player #1 to be the one that starts with the jar. Actions: - Each round at the same time both players deposit between 1 to 4 pennies into the jar. - Then both players are able to count the pennies in the jar. - If there are 21 or more pennies, the person with the jar is the winner. - If there are 20 or less pennies, the jar is passed to the other person and another round begins. Do you want to be the first or second player? What is the winning strategy?
