We reviewed the literature on instruments for single-encounter work-based clinical assessment, like the mini-CEX.
In a literature review of instruments for single-encounter work-based assessment, including the mini-CEX, Pelgrim et al. (2011) found eight studies reporting reliability results, showing mostly acceptable (>0.8) reliability with a feasible sample size of ten encounters.
This paper relates the development of a multiple use hand instrument for single port access surgery by re- using and enhancing the design of single-use devices with the proposed simulation-based methodology.
We also developed a robotic magnetic beads handling instrument for single cell-based cDNA synthesis to amplify immunoglobulin variable genes by rapid amplification of 5' cDNA ends PCR.
To evaluate the second generation of single-site instruments for robotic laparoendoscopic single-site surgery (R-LESS) for kidney procedures in a cadaver model.
The study is conducted using a pendulum type repeated impact apparatus specially designed and instrumented for determining single and repeated impact strengths.
Under the parameters specified previously, a SNR of up to 260 was recorded for the QCL instrument for a single scan while imaging each tissue core in a tissue microarray (TMA) in approximately 2 min; in comparison, the FPA FT-IR spectrometer achieved a calculated SNR of 727 (16 coadditions, 2.5 h/core), and the LA-equipped system reached an even higher SNR of 1034 (2 coadditions, 1 h/core).
He also composed chamber music and music for single instruments in both microtonal and non-microtonal idioms and wrote a number of articles and books.
I, II and VIII), virtuosic outpourings for single instruments performed by members of the International Contemporary Ensemble, a k a ICE, artists in residence at Mostly Mozart.
For example, developmental changes during childhood make it difficult for single instruments to be valid from infancy through adolescence.
