Sample size calculation in multi-centre clinical trials [PDF]
Background Multi-centre randomized controlled clinical trials play an important role in modern evidence-based medicine. Advantages of collecting data from more than one site are numerous, including accelerated recruitment and increased generalisability ...

Power and sample size calculation for stepped-wedge designs with discrete outcomes [PDF]
Background Stepped-wedge designs (SWD) are increasingly used to evaluate the impact of changes to the process of care within health care systems. However, to generate definitive evidence, a correct sample size calculation is crucial to ensure such ...

The research protocol V: The calculation of sample size
Sample size refers to the number of participants to be included in a research study. If the calculation is carried out properly, not only conclusions will be established with statistical support and the potential risks to the subjects included in the ...

A practical approach to sample size calculation for fixed populations [PDF]
Researchers routinely compute desired sample sizes of clinical trials to control type-i and type-ii errors. While for many experimental designs sample size calculations are well-known, it remains an active area of research.

Sample Size Calculations [PDF]
The sample size is the number of patients or other experimental units that need to be included in a study to answer the research question. Pre-study calculation of the sample size is important; if a sample size is too small, one will not be able to detect an effect, while a sample that is too large may be a waste of time and money.
