The impact of varying cluster size in cross-sectional stepped-wedge cluster randomised trials
BACKGROUND: Cluster randomised trials with unequal sized clusters often have lower precision than with clusters of equal size. To allow for this, sample sizes are inflated by a modified version of the design effect for clustering. These inflation factors are valid under the assumption that randomisa...
