摘要
A sample size justification is often a key component in securing funding to conduct a clinical trial. Sample size computations typically require supplying values of parameters that are unknown and subject to misspecification. As an alternative, we advocate a power analysis approach based on a range of reasonable values for such parameters. We illustrate this approach in the context of a secondary stroke prevention trial.
