Abstract:

The propensity score matching method has been widely used in epidemiology. Recently the Greedy 1:1 matching algorithm was applied to drug eluting stent trials to assess the clinical outcome with balanced baseline characteristics for two stent treatments. We will use the approach to assess the matching for three stent groups to compare clinical outcomes in drug eluting stent trials. The drug eluting stent trial data will be used to demonstrate the difference of the two-way and three-way approaches.
