"Like the prom: that was a lot of money.
"They deserve the same, a prom that is on par with a school prom".
"They have a big red carpet and the whole town usually comes and watches as we come in," said Stephanie, describing the prom that would be held at her school two months hence.
The tremendous horn section of the Philharmonia did not disappoint when their moment came, closing a dazzling performance of this darkly bucolic, sylvan symphony and a Prom that had run from total desolation to glorious hope.
For disgruntled parents this is mystifying, because proms are pure Americana –certainly the only one prom that impacted on my cultural landscape involved Carrie and a bucket of blood.
Therefore, we decided to develop a new PROM that covers the topics that patients and clinicians find relevant to discuss with regard to apnea-related quality of life, and which is also suitable for outcome measurement.
There were several items in the PROM that were confusing to all or most of the interviewed patients, or that they understood in a way that was not intended, which were subsequently adjusted or removed.
Objective: This study was performed to evaluate a protocol for treatment of previable premature rupture of membranes (PROM) that includes the administration of gelatin sponge to retard the loss of fluid from the amniotic cavity.
The aim of this article is to describe the development of the Patient-Reported Apnea Questionnaire (PRAQ), a patient-reported outcome measure (PROM) that is designed for use in clinical practice on an individual patient level, as well as subsequent outcome measurement on an aggregate level.
In developing pMOR methods for fast UQ of nanoelectronic, electro-thermal models with random variables or stochastic processes, we applied pMOR techniques to a Power-MOS device (Figure 14), provided by MAG, and obtained a parametric reduced order model (pROM) that is of high accuracy over a very large parameter range.
When developing a PROM that can be used both on an individual patient level in daily clinical practice and as an outcome measure for quality, it is important to find a balance between the wishes of patients and the requirements for creating a feasible outcome measure.
