To implement the summary measure in a time-to-event equation, it must
be applied to the reference equation because the measure itself does not
carry sufcient information to derive the intervention quantile function sep-
arately. This involves converting the summary measure into a form that can
be applied to the reference quantile function. The required steps depend on
the specics of the reference equation (see Chapter 6).
For DES that check at xed time steps to determine whether an event hap-
pened, summary information regarding risk or proportion achieving a result
can be applied directly in the simulation by using it to adjust ...
