These functions can be used for generating random MIC values and disk diffusion diameters, for AMR data analysis practice. By providing a microorganism and antimicrobial drug, the generated results will reflect reality as much as possible.
Usage
random_mic(size = NULL, mo = NULL, ab = NULL, ...)
random_disk(size = NULL, mo = NULL, ab = NULL, ...)
random_sir(size = NULL, prob_SIR = c(0.33, 0.33, 0.33), ...)
Arguments
- size
desired size of the returned vector. If used in a data.frame call or
dplyr
verb, will get the current (group) size if left blank.- mo
any character that can be coerced to a valid microorganism code with
as.mo()
- ab
any character that can be coerced to a valid antimicrobial drug code with
as.ab()
- ...
ignored, only in place to allow future extensions
- prob_SIR
a vector of length 3: the probabilities for "S" (1st value), "I" (2nd value) and "R" (3rd value)
Details
The base R function sample()
is used for generating values.
Generated values are based on the EUCAST 2024 guideline as implemented in the clinical_breakpoints data set. To create specific generated values per bug or drug, set the mo
and/or ab
argument.
