At the same time, instruments have evolved in complexity, computational capability has similarly advanced so that it has been possible to develop and employ increasing complex and computationally intensive methods.
As a consequence, HRQL instruments have evolved in order to assess the impact of disease, effect of treatment and other variables affecting people's lives.
Some instruments have evolved from the SSI, for example the Modified scale for suicidal ideation (MSSI) [ 18] that was designed to suit paraprofessionals and the Beck scale for suicidal ideation (BSS) [ 19] that is a self-report scale.
Because biological data are instrument-dependent and because technology has evolved over the last two decades, the published capillary blood reference values for blood gases, lactate, ionized calcium (iCa) and glucose may not reflect the present day situation.
The design of the instrument, a new laboratory-scale Fast Centrifugal Partition Extractor (FCPE300®), has evolved from centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) columns, but with less cells of larger volume.
Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive technique, traditionally used by orthopaedic surgeons, which has evolved as a research instrument in rheumatology to permit retrieval of SM during the past 20 years.
"A cappella" literally means "in chapel style," but has evolved to denote any singing unaccompanied by musical instruments.
Currently, decision making regarding risk assessment in forensic psychiatry has evolved to the use of structured professional judgment instruments.
The ionosonde has evolved from the early analog film-recording depictor of the ionosphere, into a precision diagnositic instrument.
The tree taxonomy has evolved from the original 4 main branches and 33 final codes used in the ESMS instrument to an ontology-driven comprehensive taxonomy of MTCs.
