Interrater reliability: completing the methods description in medical records review studies.
In medical records review studies, information on the interrater reliability (IRR) of the data is seldom reported. This study assesses the IRR of data collected for a complex medical records review study. Elements selected for determining IRR included "demographic" data that require copying explicit information (e.g., gender, birth date), "free-text" data that require identifying and copying (e...
متن کاملConvergent validity and interrater reliability of estimating the ABCD2 score from medical records.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The ABCD(2) score is increasingly used for risk stratification of transient ischemic attack patients. We sought to determine the reliability and convergent validity of retrospective ABCD(2) score estimation from medical records. METHODS We compared ABCD(2) scores that were prospectively determined by a vascular neurology attending to scores determined retrospectively fr...
متن کاملMeasuring data reliability for preventive services in electronic medical records
BACKGROUND Improvements in the quality of health care services are often measured using data present in medical records. Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) contain potentially valuable new sources of health data. However, data quality in EMRs may not be optimal and should be assessed. Data reliability (are the same data elements being measured over time?) is a prerequisite for data validity (are...
متن کاملExperience in software reliability: From data collection to quantitative evaluation
This paper describes the different steps in software failure data processing in order to monitor the software development and to quantify the operational reliability. Processing consists in (a) filtering the raw data in order to keep only those corresponding to software failures without duplicate, (b) partitioning of data into sub-sets according for instance to failure severity or fault locatio...
متن کاملReliability of Data Collection Methods in Social Media Research
In this paper we argue for the systematic assessment and reporting of the reliability of data collection methods that rely on the automated collection of data from third party social media sites, where the researcher does not have direct access to meaning or control over data quality. Building on a long tradition of reliability assessment in the sciences and specifically in social science, we p...
