hfaction: A dataset from the HF-ACTION trial
In rmt: Restricted Mean Time in Favor of Treatment

Description Usage Format References

Over two thousand heart failure patients across the USA, Canada, and France participated in the Heart Failure: A Controlled Trial Investigating Outcomes of Exercise Training (HF-ACTION) between 2003–2007 (O'Connor et al., 2009). The primary objective of the trial was to evaluate the effect of adding exercise training to the usual patient care on the composite endpoint of all-cause hospitalization and death. The dataset here contains a subgroup of 426 non-ischemic patients with baseline cardio-pulmonary exercise test less than or equal to nine minutes.

status: Event type; 1 = hospitalization, 2 = death.
trt_ab: 1 = exercise training, 0 = usual care.
