A multivariate approach for interpreting treadmill exercise tests in coronary artery disease.
To determine the value of a multivariate approach for the analysis of the treadmill exercise tolerance test (ETT), 237 patients referred for evaluation of chest pain who underwent a standard Bruce protocol ETT and coronary arteriography were studied. Predictive value of a positive ETT was 0.78 (43/55) using 1.0--1.9 mm ST segment depression criterion, 0.97 (59/61) using greater than or equal to...

متن کاملInterpreting Diagnostic Tests Using Probability
These notes detail my 40-minute lecture given 11 June 1995 as part of the Seventh Annual Intensive Review of Internal Medicine, a symposium conducted by the Cleveland Clinic. I was asked to review how probability is used with diagnostic testing. Our main question is: How can diagnostic results and other information about a patient be used to estimate the chance that he/she has a particular “dis...
متن کاملIntroducing a Non-Dichotomous Method for Scoring Selected-Response Tests
The main purpose of this study was to introduce a new non-dichotomous scoring procedure for the multiple-choice test method, called Parledge. The research also aimed to determine Parledge characteristics through a psychometric study comparing it with the “Number Correct” and “Correction for Guessing” scoring methods. There were 35 students participating in the study who were given a vocabulary ...
