Their findings indicated that discrepancies around urgency classifications and acceptable timeframes for treatment can cause variability in the assignment of urgency for patients with similar conditions.
We received 524 of the 546 responses expected within an acceptable timeframe (40 days for test #1, and 28 days for test #2).
The key challenge of the BWA project was to deliver a program within an acceptable timeframe that was safe, secure and easy for healthcare professionals to use.
With the improvement of NGS technology, it is possible to have a comprehensive molecular profile for a patient available within a clinically acceptable timeframe and cost.
"That's a perfectly acceptable timeframe," he said.
It also needed to be performed within a clinically acceptable timeframe, which directly related to realistic expectations of patient tolerance.
Thus, overall, BRAF status was evaluated in an acceptable timeframe in 520 of 546 (95.2%) samples.
Some participants in this study decided to 'risk' randomization to the training alone intervention as a first line of approach, but felt that surgery remained an option for them if training did not confer the desired results in an acceptable timeframe.
