Estimated variance components were calculated for both the global rating and checklist scores.
This difference in ICC scores for global rating and checklist might lie in the fact that a measurement error in global rating scale ranging from 1 to 5 has a larger impact on reliability measures than a measurement error in the total checklist score ranging from 0 to 440.
The VAP rate for checklist items 1 4 was 25.9 per 1000 mechanical ventilator days (8.9 when all 5 items were present).
Many studies have reported low adherence rate to checklists by medical workers.
Table 4 compares i) sum of global rating scale plus checklist scores, ii) global rating scale scores, and iii) checklist scores between the two groups.
The following data were collected: overall rating of the checklist, the time it took to fill in the checklist, relevance of the questions, logistics of the filling in of the checklist, and questions that were felt to be lacking.
Structured performance ratings also include checklists, rating scales, and inventories but are completed by a trained evaluator to provide objective evidence of performance.
We also validated a global rating scale and checklist designed specifically for endourological tasks.
Depending on the station and the exercise, scoring was done by using either a global rating or a checklist rating [ 16].
Global rating scores and checklist scores from the three groups were compared in pairs using the Mann–Whitney rank sum test.
