Given the relative simplicity of this assessment and the far-reaching implications for treatment and function, we propose that this assessment should be adopted as standard practice for acute cervical SCI.
Iodine number often reported in mg/g is a good technique that is often used to determine the adsorption capacity and the quality of activated carbon because of its simplicity and rapid assessment (Tounsadi et al. 2016).
Simplicity: ease of assessment, ease of recording, and ease of sharing with medical and comedical staff.
While the requirement for only uni-dimensional measurement has improved the simplicity of response assessment, changes in lesion size are relatively slow to occur, particularly when cancer lesions contain a pre-existing fibrotic or necrotic component.
Currently, there is no perfect coma scale, and requirements for a better scale include: Simplicity: ease of assessment, ease of recording, and ease of sharing with medical and comedical staff.
Given the context of the Dutch culture favouring outcome metrics, and the search for simplicity in research assessment, the methodology presented here builds on metrics first, while acknowledging that qualitative procedures need to be added in order to eventually reach an intelligent and advanced combined system of health research evaluation.
Finally, we assume a constant environment for simplicity but true assessments of population growth must incorporate environmental (and demographic) stochasticity.
Though the result requires critical assessment, the simplicity of the approach is appealing.
One possible explanation for this result involves the simplicity of the concept assessment question.
Existing systems like Global Medical Device Nomenclature [ 30] do not meet the simplicity requirements of rapid assessment.
Psychological evidence casts doubt on the second part of the claim; see, for instance, Lombrozo 2007, on the role of simplicity in people's assessments of explanatory goodness and Koslowski et al. 2008, on the role of coherence with background knowledge in those assessments).
