Because the staff was provided with an interpretation and recommendation of action in cases of moderate and high risk, we also determined the test accuracy for a composite endpoint combining the primary outcome (attack) and the secondary outcome (intense preventive measures).
Through the use of decision analytic modeling, we were able to translate the number of people affected by a hypothetical bioterrorist attack to relevant outcomes and incorporate these outcomes into the evaluation metric.
