Although quantifying the scale of, and trends in, sources of under- and overestimation is challenging, it is essential that data collection systems are in place to provide best estimates.
Thus, an effective and robust Quality Assurance (QA) program is essential for standardized data collection across sites and for monitoring and ensuring the precision and accuracy of the data collected.
After identifying the essential data needed for collection, the focus turned to the practical aspects of collecting data over a protracted period, including optimising form design.
A framework is needed for prioritizing essential investments in data collection based on the policy priorities of each country.
Further consensus is needed to establish essential criteria for data collection and to establish a core group of health systems assessment experts to be deployed during future emergencies.
This is an excellent entry level opportunity for anyone who enjoys managing large sets of data and/or files, working with colleagues across an organization, preserving essential data and library collections, and learning new technical skills.
23 Interobserver reliability is essential for standardised manual data collection.
This paper forms the baseline for a series of articles on specific conditions in critical care, providing essential background on the data collection, data validation and overall case mix, outcome and activity for all critical care admissions to set those for specific conditions in context.
Since the selection of an appropriate instrument for a particular aim/goal is essential for planning any data collection, it is particularly interesting to examine the content of different PROs and to compare the concepts covered for a well-founded choice of instruments [ 10, 14].
