A Simple And Robust Alternative To Bland-Altman Method Of Assessing Clinical Agreement, Abhaya Indrayan Prof
A Simple And Robust Alternative To Bland-Altman Method Of Assessing Clinical Agreement, Abhaya Indrayan Prof
COBRA Preprint Series
Clinical agreement between two quantitative measurements on a group of subjects is generally assessed with the help of the Bland-Altman (B-A) limits. These limits only describe the dispersion of disagreements in 95% cases and do not measure the degree of agreement. The interpretation regarding the presence or absence of agreement by this method is based on whether B-A limits are within the pre-specified externally determined clinical tolerance limits. Thus, clinical tolerance limits are necessary for this method. We argue in this communication that the direct use of clinical tolerance limits for assessing agreement without the B-A limits is more effective …

The goals of this study were to utilize citizen scientists in groundwater research in a coastal community where groundwater plays a large role in sustainable water resources management, and assess the extent of groundwater and marine inundation in response to future sea-level rise scenarios. A total of 7 citizen scientists participated in the study by measuring water levels from 15 groundwater monitoring wells using water level meters once a week over a 10-week period. Automated water level loggers were deployed in three of the same wells to assess the quality of the data collected by the citizen scientists. Additional water …
