ev: Event objects for simulating PK and other interventions

Description

An event object specifies dosing or other interventions that get implemented during simulation. Event objects do similar things as data_set, but simpler and quicker.

Usage

ev(x, ...)
# S4 method for mrgmod
ev(x, object = NULL, ...)
# S4 method for missing
ev(time = 0, amt, evid = 1, cmt = 1,
  ID = numeric(0), replicate = TRUE, until = NULL, tinf = NULL,
  realize_addl = FALSE, ...)
# S4 method for ev
ev(x, realize_addl = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

x

a model object

...

other items to be incorporated into the event object; see details

object

passed to show

time

event time

amt

dose amount

evid

event ID

cmt

compartment

ID

subject ID

replicate

logical; if TRUE, events will be replicated for each individual in ID

until

the expected maximum observation time for this regimen

tinf

infusion time; if greater than zero, then the rate item will be derived as amt/tinf

realize_addl

if FALSE (default), no change to addl doses. If TRUE, addl doses are made explicit with realize_addl

Value

events object

Details

• Required items in events objects include time, amt, evid and cmt.

• If not supplied, evid is assumed to be 1.

• If not supplied, cmt is assumed to be 1.

• If not supplied, time is assumed to be 0.

• If amt is not supplied, an error will be generated.

• If total is supplied, then addl will be set to total - 1.

• Other items can include ii, ss, and addl (see data_set for details on all of these items).

• ID may be specified as a vector.

• If replicate is TRUE (default), then the events regimen is replicated for each ID; otherwise, the number of event rows must match the number of IDs entered

Examples

# NOT RUN {
mod <- mrgsolve:::house()

mod <- mod %>% ev(amt=1000, time=0, cmt=1)

loading <- ev(time=0, cmt=1, amt=1000)

maint <- ev(time=12, cmt=1, amt=500, ii=12, addl=10)

loading + maint
