Two-sided test and significance level

Reference no: EM13102591

We want to design a new placebo-controlled trial to evaluate an experimental medication to increase lung capacity. The primary outcome is peak expiratory flow rate, a continuous variable measured in liters per minute. The primary outcome will be measured after 6 months on treatment. The expected peak expiratory flow rate in adults is 300 with a standard deviation of 50. how many subjects should be enrolled to ensure 80% power to detect a difference of 15 liters per minute with a two-sided test and significance level of 0.05?
