Evaluating policy and service interventions: framework to guide selection and interpretation of study end points
Abstract
The effect of many cost effective policy and service interventions cannot be detected at the level of the patient. This new framework could help improve the design (especially choice of primary end point) and interpretation of evaluative studies

“However, as the signal (change in outcome due to intervention) diminishes in relation to the noise (changes in outcome due to uncontrolled sources of variation), a study based on process measurement will become more cost effective. Such was the case in Landrigan’s study of the effects of fatigue on the quality of care…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
