Details

This data set is a derived data set. The inputs are the treatment and randomization data sets. The code to calculate the induction delay is given in scripts/create_inductDelay_20210729.R. The treatment arm is also included in this data set because the induction delay depends on the type of treatment. For example, inpatient treatment arms may have different protocols than outpatient treatment arms for determining how many days the subject must wait after randomization before treatment.
