  <dc:title>Stepped-Wedge Clinical Trial Analysis and Power Simulation</dc:title>
  <dc:title>R package stepwedgepower version 0.1.3</dc:title>
  <dc:description>Provides reusable functions for aggregated cluster-period data,
    mixed-effects analysis, and simulation-based power and type I error
    evaluation in stepped-wedge cluster randomized trials. The design and
    mixed-effects analysis follow Hussey and Hughes (2007)
    &lt;doi:10.1016/j.cct.2006.05.007&gt;. Intraclass correlations for binary
    outcomes are converted to logistic-normal random-intercept standard
    deviations following Eldridge, Ukoumunne and Carlin (2009)
    &lt;doi:10.1111/j.1751-5823.2009.00092.x&gt;. Monte Carlo uncertainty in
    estimated power is summarized using the exact binomial interval of
    Clopper and Pearson (1934) &lt;doi:10.1093/biomet/26.4.404&gt;. The simulation
    engine supports sequence-specific baseline risks, cluster random effects,
    direct intraclass-correlation specification, Monte Carlo uncertainty
    intervals, and model-fitting diagnostics. Applied physician and specialty
    helpers are retained for backward compatibility and for an example
    health-services workflow.</dc:description>
