ceiano 3. A sluay was conducted to assess physiological responses to an early passive exercise protocol to prevent muscle weakness in adults receiving mechanical ventilation. After 72 hours of intubation, patients had 20 minutes of leg movement delivered by a continuous passive motion machine. The Behavioral Pain Scale was used to measure patients' comfort at several time points: baseline, 5 minutes after the start of the intervention, 10 minutes after the start, 20 minutes after the start, and 60 minutes after the completion of the intervention. The researchers wish to test if there is a difference in pain scores over time. SPSS output for the analysis is provided below. Use it to answer the following questions. a. Identify the independent and dependent variables for this study. (2 pts.) Independent: The independent variable is passive exercise. Dependent: The dependent variable is muscle weakness. b. Why is a repeated measures ANOVA the appropriate analysis for this data? (2 pts-)

Explanation / Answer

Yes.

Independent variable = passive exercise

Dependent variable = muscle weakness
