MEDICAL CASE STUDY

To analyze the case study given we have applied a T Test and an Anova Test to arrive at results:

T Test- The T Test compares the significance of group differences between groups in this case we
compare the means between parameters such as Group and SBP , Heart rate and other vital stats.
If there is a significance difference in the means then we conduct an ANOVA test to find the
significance of group differences between two or more groups .

groups
