What type of experiment is it when only the subject does not know it they are receiving the real treatment of the placebo?
If the experimenters know but the subject does not, it's called a "single blind" study. If the placebo is randomized and neither the subject nor the experimenters know which is the placebo, it's called a "double blind" study.
What type of experiment is it when only the subject does not know if they are receiving the real treatment or the placebo?
This type of experiment is known as a single-blind study. In a single-blind study, the participants are unaware of whether they are receiving the actual treatment or a placebo, which helps to minimize bias in their responses. However, the researchers conducting the study know which participants are receiving the treatment and which are receiving the placebo. This design helps to ensure that any observed effects can be attributed to the treatment itself rather than participants' expectations.
Who knows which patients are being given the placebo?
In a double-blind study, neither the patients nor the researchers know who is receiving the placebo to eliminate bias. This helps ensure that the results are not influenced by expectations or preconceived notions.

When scientists study how well medicines work one group of patients receives the medicine while the second group does not why?
It's the only way to discover if the medicine is any good or not. The tests have to be randomised so that each patient does not know whether he is receiving the medicine or just a placebo, and the person administering the dose to that patient must not know if it's the medicine or a placebo.

What does a double blind study mean?
A double-blind study is a research design where neither the participants nor the researchers know who is receiving the treatment and who is receiving a placebo. This helps to reduce bias in the study results by preventing expectations from influencing the outcomes.
Hospitals in Oahu Hawaii are using Vancomycin routinely as a prophylaxis antibiotic for prevention of infection without informing the patient Is this ethical or a violation of patient rights?
Patients have the right to know in advance what treatments they will be receiving, so I'd say that this is a violation of the patient's rights. Especially since there are possible side effects.

What is a double blind drug?
A double-blind study means that neither the test subject (human) or the researcher administering the study knows whether the test subject is receiving the experimental treatment or the control treatment. Often in human drug tests, the control treatment will be a placebo. This ensures that neither party can make any expectations as to whether they should or shouldn't be seeing results. This is important because sometimes researchers will botch their results to coincide with their hypothesis. This also ensures that both control and experimental groups experience the "placebo effect" more or less equally
I need Very interesting and informative topic for presentation?
Here's one: the placebo paradox. We know now that most alternative therapies work because the patient believes in the treatment and the therapist. This is known to be true of real drugs too. It's a very powerful effect. But once you know that, when you are a cynic who understands the placebo effect, how do you get good treatment. In other words how do you get the benefits of belief when you know it just belief? That's the paradox.
