Class 'rsi'

This transforms a vector to a new class rsi, which is an ordered factor with levels S < I < R. Invalid antimicrobial interpretations will be translated as NA with a warning.

as.rsi(x)

is.rsi(x)

is.rsi.eligible(x)

Arguments

x	vector

Value

Ordered factor with new class rsi

Details

The function is.rsi.eligible returns TRUE when a columns contains only valid antimicrobial interpretations (S and/or I and/or R), and FALSE otherwise.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
rsi_data <- as.rsi(c(rep("S", 474), rep("I", 36), rep("R", 370)))
rsi_data <- as.rsi(c(rep("S", 474), rep("I", 36), rep("R", 370), "A", "B", "C"))
is.rsi(rsi_data)

# this can also coerce combined MIC/RSI values:
as.rsi("<= 0.002; S") # will return S

plot(rsi_data)    # for percentages
barplot(rsi_data) # for frequencies
freq(rsi_data)    # frequency table with informative header

# using dplyr's mutate
library(dplyr)
septic_patients %>%
  mutate_at(vars(peni:rifa), as.rsi)

# fastest way to transform all columns with already valid AB results to class `rsi`:
septic_patients %>%
  mutate_if(is.rsi.eligible,
            as.rsi)
# }
