However, data should be sent at regular intervals, with the exception of event monitoring where data is transmitted only if an event has been positively identified.
Results are communicated to participants only when their readings are outside the normal range towards levels considered adverse to health, with the exception of pregnancy monitoring in VAEDA, whose results will be imparted at the end of the study.
Ethnographic observations and interviews, however, suggested that staff at the sharp end of medical wards generally had only a vague idea of the intervention, and that, with the exception of patient monitoring, few had direct experience of most of its components.
In order to detect exceptions effectively, exception monitoring requires proper understanding of the possible exceptions.
With the exception of self-monitoring of blood glucose and the start of oral hypoglycaemic agent therapy when diet alone is insufficient, all recommendations were fulfilled by a greater proportion of patients in the good control group than in the suboptimal control group.
With the exception of the glucose monitoring subscale and the medication adherence question, significant negative correlations were found between the PAID single factor solution and other SDSCA subscales.
However, patients admitted to the ICU who did not have persistent shock received the same medications and interventions as similar patients admitted to the floor, with the exception of more intense monitoring in the ICU.
In scenarios 3 and 4 in our analysis, where the proportions of patients receiving high dose HD at home and PD were increased, we noted that savings were to be made across all cost components with the exception of treatment and monitoring costs.
Monitors were located in the centers of the communities, with the exception of the rural monitors in Payerne and Montana.
However these regional averages still tended to outperform model data with the possible exception of the 1 monitor per 25 km × 25 km grid square scenario for rural NO2 where monitor and model findings were comparable.
