Editorial Commentary: Hip Arthroscopy in a Military Population: Are the Results Comparable to an Athletic Population?
Abstract:
Hip pain is common in the military population and has led to an increase in hip arthroscopy as a means of therapeutic treatment. Return to duty (RTD) is the measure by which military surgeons tend to judge their outcomes; could the servicemember "get back in the fight?" Return to play (RTP) is a common metric in sports medicine for assessing the effectiveness of a surgical intervention. The results of prior studies of RTD hip arthroscopy in the US military population have been underwhelming when compared with RTP in athletic cohorts. This discrepancy in outcomes likely has more to do with the differences in RTD and RTP as outcome measures than any surgeon, pathology, or demographic factors.

Testing a Claim about Mean: Known Population SD
Estimating a population mean requires the samples to be distributed normally. The data should be collected from the randomly selected samples having no sampling bias. The sample size needed to be higher than 30, and most importantly, the population standard deviation should be already known.
In most realistic situations, the population standard deviation is often unknown, but in rare circumstances, when it...
