Hi diego, 

here are some useful links to software that does sample size analysis for mixed models:

Betreff: st: repeated measures analysis: random mixed models, GEE and power analysis

Dear Statalisters, 

I am writing a grant proposal (time is an issue here) 
and by study design I will  have to analyze serial measurements 
in three predefined groups of patients (the outcome variable is continous). 
The time between each measure should be uniform in all the patients. 
I should have no problems to enroll more than 40 patients per group.

Here are the questions: 

1) What should I choose between Univariate ANOVA for repeated measures, MANOVA, random mixed models and general estimating equations, and why ? 

Personally, I am fascinated by GEE, but I am not sure this is the easiest/most efficient way to perform a  serial measurements analysis. 

2) What are the differences between random mixed models and GEE, if any ? 

3) I will have to perform a sample-size analysis as well: what I have is baseline mean and SD of the outcome (by previous study) and I should be able to 
get mean and SD at the second assessment (by previous pilot study), might you drive me on how to perform a power analysis in this setting ? 

Thank you always, 

Diego
