Abstract:
|
Propensity score method is a useful tool to adjust the selection bias and accurately estimate treatment effects. While it is used widely in all kinds of clinical trials, there is no general rule about how the subgroup (quintiles) should be combined. We will discuss how this is applied in a case study in medical device clinical trials, including missing value imputation, score calculation, subgroup analysis, and the combination method.
