precision in improved as _____. _____increased
how is prcision estimated in stats terms
sample size
tighter CI’s
2 standard deviation
by statistical dogma should you compare baseline charateristics in an RCT by p value
No, bc of some bullshit about source derivation
3 factors that go into making a balanced trial
How do determine noninferiority statistically
The upper 95% CI cannto include the noniferiority boundary. Setting these boundaries are controveral.
False positive rate pneumonic
False negative trial
alpha error (FAST) - Fasle Alpha statisitcal test - alpha is first so this is type one error.
False negative trial –> beta error…(type II error the other one is the other one)
alpha error
false positive test (FAST)
type I error =
What is it preset as in trials
How do you thing of it?
alpha error - False positive staisitical test
0.05 althought it looks like the p value it is a different concept, it is the probablity before the trial starts that the result would be a false positive
If you repeated the trial 100 x then 95% of the time or more the result would be the same
Beta error what is it
false negative rate (probablity of a false negative trial). This is also type II error.
power is what
1-Beta error aka ture postive rate
True postive rate
1-Beta error or Power
Power is the abillty to show a difference when one exists.
RR calc
(control relative risk - exper RR)/ CRR
SIHD major updates.
change in GL on aspiration thrombectomy and embol
GL changes non infacrt artery at time of STEMI
now pci should not be performed in seeting of shock
Can perform in STEMI as long as not as in shock (hasnt made guidleins)
AUC NSTEMI/US what constitute high risk features for nonfateal MI or death
TIMI/GRACE risk score
accelerating sx
age
character of pain
ecg change
bio markers
What does fred welt do regarding pt with lysis and 50% reduction in stemi and imrpvoed paoin
he calls in the team and waits the 3 -12 hours post (he’s lying).
CCS class in most trecent gl
now lumped together.
determing Stress test risk category high risk (5
High risk
CAC > 400
CAC score impt high risk
400
400
CAC score high risk
to be fully appropriate for p lad in SCIHD with pLAD + another vessel need what for PCI
basically need to have high risk stress or DM and need to be sx or ffr +
LM disease PCI for boards
generally for ostial or midvessel -otherwwise be conservative
