The ACES questions and composite measures achieve physician-level reliability exceeding 0.70 with samples of 45 patients per physician [ 28, 29].
However, this particular analysis is useful in highlighting which groups of causes of death produce more difficulties in achieving physician consensus.
The secondary efficacy outcome was the proportion of participants achieving Physician's Global Assessment clear or minimal (PGA 0/1) at month 6.
When compared to available national physician workforce data [ 4], the achieved physician sample would appear to be broadly representative; however, the potential for response bias in our sample remains.
The proportion of patients achieving physician-assessed first-line CR was much higher in LTS than in STS (70.9% vs 0.3%, respectively), and as a consequence, the proportion of patients achieving PR/SD was lower in LTS than in STS (28.7% vs 68.7%, respectively) (see Table 3).
The computer planning software then creates a series of modulation patterns at each beam angle that strive to achieve the physician's dose prescription goals.
Time intervals from arrival to completion of assessment and commencement of treatment for febrile neutropenia need improvement, and to achieve this, physician and nursing protocols to standardise and streamline clinical care pathways for the whole network are under consideration.
Patients who achieve a physician's global assessment (PGA) score of "clear" or "almost clear" do not, in general, require further anti-psoriasis treatment for 10 months following a course of alefacept.
To achieve this, physicians found it important that it was physicians, who formulated the medical demands in the requirement specification.
To achieve this, physicians, nurses and patients should obey the rules of segregation and sterilization strictly and pay attention to bacteria contamination and the rational use of antibiotics.
To achieve this physicians are encouraged, and in some countries are required, to maintain a high level of competence through continuing education.
