sep.rb.bin: Binomial risk-based population sensitivity

In RSurveillance: Design and Analysis of Disease Surveillance Activities

Description

Calculates risk-based population sensitivity with a single risk factor, using binomial method (assumes a large population), allows for unit sensitivity to vary among risk strata

Usage

sep.rb.bin(pstar, rr, ppr, n, se)

Arguments

pstar	design prevalence (scalar)
rr	relative risk values (vector of values corresponding to the number of risk strata)
ppr	population proportions corresponding to rr values (vector of equal length to rr)
n	sample size per risk category (vector same length as rr and ppr)
se	unit sensitivity, can vary among risk strata (fixed value or vector same length as rr, ppr, n)

Value

list of 3 elements, a scalar of population-level sensitivity a vector of EPI values and a vector of corresponding adjusted risks
