Analytical techniques appropriate for cluster randomized trials that utilize a repeated cross-sectional design have not been extensively evaluated. This paper compares methods that can be used to evaluate the impact of an intervention on dichotomous outcomes. The methods are applied to data from a s
The summary measures approach to analysing repeated measures is described. The circumstances under which it can be advantageous to use such measures are considered. Strategies for baseline adjustment where there are multiple baselines are examined, as is the choice of appropriate summary statistic.
The outcome-based selection model of Diggle and Kenward for repeated measurements with non-random dropout is applied to a very simple example concerning the occurrence of mastitis in dairy cows, in which the occurrence of mastitis can be modelled as a dropout process. It is shown through sensitivity
