DIGdata: DIG NHLBI Teaching Dataset

Description

A clinical trial focused dataset was developed using the Digitalis Investigation Group (DIG). This dataset was designed to replicate the results found in the February 1997 New England Journal of Medicine article. Note that statistical processes such as permutations within treatment groups were used to completely anonymize the data; therefore, inferences derived from the teaching dataset may not be valid. The DIG Trial was a randomized, double-blind, multicenter trial with more than 300 centers in the United States and Canada participating. The purpose of the trial was to examine the safety and efficacy of Digoxin in treating patients with congestive heart failure in sinus rhythm. Data on 5281 male and 1519 female collected.
