Power and Sample Size for the Design of Epidemiological Studies II

1 Credit.

Introduces power and sample size (PSS) calculations for the design of more complicated studies, including survival or time-to-event outcomes, cluster randomized trials, studies with correlated outcomes, and non-inferiority trials. Introduces the use of simulation to conduct PSS calculations for the design of special situations where existing PSS tools do not directly apply. Showcases the design and conceptualization processes of real-world examples and how PSS statistical calculations serve as an integral component of the processes.
