We decided to test the soft callus on the seventh day as this time point has been shown to be the peak timeframe of response to local trauma.
7. The timeframe of the maximal response to treatment can be predicted by pharmacological and experimental evidence, so that the primary outcome is measured as a single endpoint.

Timeframes for responses will depend on individual councils.
Although study participants were selected indifferently according to their availability during the given timeframe of the study, their responses might not reflect the opinions of all of the staff members of the health center in this study.
Nevertheless, since the image evaluation techniques were performed according to local practices, there could have been a delay in the evaluation timeline of responses in comparison with the fixed timeframe executed in the pivotal trial.
Similarly, in terms of timeframes, international responses separate funding streams and participant organisations into two distinct phases: emergency response and longer term recovery development (Pain and Levine 2012).
In an attempt to estimate antibody response over the whole timeframe of the study, while acknowledging the variation in the responses over time, AUCs standardised over time were evaluated.
While this may have increased recall of responses to questionnaire items, in the interest of limiting measurement differences due to actual HRQoL changes, we chose to undertake data collection within this timeframe.
