"relevant patients" is a correct and commonly used phrase in written English.
It is typically used in a medical or healthcare context to refer to a specific group of patients who are important or applicable to a particular situation or study. Example: The study focused on 100 relevant patients with a history of heart disease, all of whom had been enrolled in the hospital's cardiac rehabilitation program.
The purpose of these interviews is to test the applicability, comprehension, relevance and comprehensiveness of the new scales with relevant patients.
With reliable, rapid-diagnostic techniques, companies will be able to recruit only the relevant patients and do smaller, cheaper trials.
We also found 'high-quality' evidence that paracetamol increases the risk of having an abnormal result on liver function tests by nearly four-fold, although the impact of this on clinically relevant patients is unclear," they say.
This excludes a significant number of clinically relevant patients undergoing greater lengthening procedures and is important.
It is interesting to note that these recommendations have been slightly modified in the past 40 years, although the relevant patients population has changed; the average age of patients, in particular, has tremendously increased and concomitantly the proportion of patients with impaired renal function [26].
Adjusting for relevant patients' characteristics (SAPS 3 score, admission diagnosis, chronic health status, comorbidities, MV use), case-volume and type of ICU, average graduate nurse/bed ratio during shifts (OR = 0.254 (95%CI, 0.068-0.945)) and the number of other implemented protocols (OR = 0.932 (0.862-1.008)) were associated with lower mortality.
However, we required the proportion of relevant patients to be at least 80% per study population if no stratification had been performed.
If the proportion of relevant patients was less than 80% and the results were not presented separately for patients with other diseases and other inventions, then we excluded the studies.
Relevant patients' characteristics are summarized in Table 1.
Support from the relevant patients' support groups is crucial.
Another limiting factor is that the rate of inclusion of relevant patients is unknown.
