Bacterial contamination of surgical patients can occur from bacteria that contaminate the scrub suits worn by surgical personnel. A hospital administrator wanted to know if the mean bacterial content on scrub suits increased throughout the day. In order to determine this, he randomly sampled 19 doctors and measured the bacterial content on the shoulder of their scrubs at four times during the day: start of shift, immediately before lunch, immediately after lunch, and at the end of the shift.
