As well as having utility in routine clinical practice, outcome measurement using validated tools is crucial to inform education, compare service models, monitor the development of palliative care, enhance its quality through clinical audit, and to ensure equity of access to good quality care [ 6].
Therefore, measurements of outcome using validated tools are preferred.
For BP measurements, using a validated 907 automated digital oscillometric sphygmomanometer (Omron Healthcare Europe B.V., Hoofddorp, Netherlands), participants sat on chairs with a back support.
Results demonstrate that, for this typical aggregate population, MFI measurements using appropriately validated instruments and an optimized test protocol can provide high repeatability and accuracy.
The Italian CMT study group performed a multicentre, multidimensional, longitudinal 2-year follow-up study using validated measurements of neurological impairment, disability and quality of life.
The data association matrix is evaluated for all tracks using validated measurements obtained by phased array radar for four different cases applying four data association methods (JPDA, FCM, Fuzzy-PSO, and Fuzzy-GA).
Participants have been examined under standardised conditions by trained research nurses using validated measurement techniques to examine a comprehensive range of physical capability measures.
To learn in a self-directed manner, it is necessary to develop an awareness of one's ability to self-learn and then to implement appropriate and effective strategies; progress must be assessed using validated measurement tools.
Resource usage data should be collected using validated measurement methods so as to produce robust study findings.
● Dietary AGE consumption will be estimated from an open-source food AGE database, containing AGE values obtained using validated measurement techniques.
