A method for reducing misclassification in the extended Glasgow Outcome Score.
The eight-point extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) is commonly used as the primary outcome measure in traumatic brain injury (TBI) clinical trials. The outcome is conventionally collected through a structured interview with the patient alone or together with a caretaker. Despite the fact that using the structured interview questionnaires helps reach agreement in GOSE assessment between rater...
متن کاملDoes the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale add value to the conventional Glasgow Outcome Scale?
The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is firmly established as the primary outcome measure for use in Phase III trials of interventions in traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, the GOS has been criticized for its lack of sensitivity to detect small but clinically relevant changes in outcome. The Glasgow Outcome Scale-Extended (GOSE) potentially addresses this criticism, and in this study we estimate...
متن کاملStructured interviews for the Glasgow Outcome Scale and the extended Glasgow Outcome Scale: guidelines for their use.
The Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) is the most widely used outcome measure after traumatic brain injury, but it is increasingly recognized to have important limitations. It is proposed that shortcomings of the GOS can be addressed by adopting a standard format for the interview used to assign outcome. A set of guidelines are outlined that are directed at the main problems encountered in applying t...
متن کاملPredicting outcome in acute organophosphorus poisoning with a poison severity score or the Glasgow coma scale.
BACKGROUND Organophosphorus (OP) pesticide poisoning kills around 200,000 people each year, principally due to self-poisoning in the Asia-Pacific region. AIM We wished to assess whether patients at high risk of death could be identified accurately using clinical parameters soon after hospital admission. DESIGN We evaluated the usefulness of the International Program on Chemical Safety Poiso...
متن کاملReducing Misclassification Costs
We explore algorithms for learning classification procedures that attempt to minimize the cost of misclassifying examples. First, we consider inductive learning of classification rules. The Reduced Cost Ordering algorithm, a new method for creating a decision list (i.e., an ordered set of rules) is described and compared to a variety of inductive learning approaches. Next, we describe approache...
