Description
Create Self-Controlled Risk Interval (SCRI) era data
Usage
createScriIntervalData(studyPopulation, sccsData, createScriIntervalDataArgs)
Arguments

An object created using the |
sccsData |
An object of type SccsData as created using the getDbSccsData function. |
createScriIntervalDataArgs |

Details
This function creates interval data according to the elf-Controlled Risk Interval (SCRI) design.
Unlike the generic SCCS design, where all patient time is used to establish a background rate,
in the SCRI design a specific control interval (relative to the exposure) needs to be defined.
The final model will only include time that is either part of the risk interval (defined using
the eraCovariateSettings
argument, or the control interval (defined using controlIntervalSettings
).
Value
An object of type SccsIntervalData.
