A prudent operator will do something along the following lines ..

(a) generate a generic OEI miss procedure which includes consideration of reconfiguration performance/distance and acceleration segment similar to the takeoff case ... and determine the effective net obstacle profile which such a procedure can overlay

(b) assess all runways within the area of operations to determine if each runway can tolerate the generic procedure

(c) run specific runway miss analyses for those runways which can't fit within (a)

.. if a pilot, operating without such support, has to do the sums him/herself, then a more pragmatic approach is to raise the minimum altitude to suit a grossly simplified miss .. lower than that and you are committed to the landing. The more time/data available, considering pilot knowledge and performance competence, the smaller the margin of conservatism might be.
