Interrupted time-series analysis: studying trends in neurosurgery [PDF]
OBJECT Neurosurgery studies traditionally have evaluated the effects of interventions on health care outcomes by studying overall changes in measured outcomes over time. Yet, this type of linear analysis is limited due to lack of consideration of the trend’s effects both pre- and postintervention and the ...

The data from such studies are particularly amenable to visual display and, when clearly depicted, can readily show the short‐ and long‐term impact of an interruption. Further, well‐constructed graphs allow data to
