WORKSHEET
Citation : The Validity of the Rapidly Diagnostic Tests for Early Detection of Urinary Tract Infection
Are the results of diagnostic study valid?
Was there an independent, blind comparison with a reference (gold) standard of diagnosis? Was the diagnostics test evaluated in an appropriate spectrum of patients (like those in whom it would be used in practice)? Was the reference standard applied regardless of the diagnostic test result? Was the test( or cluster of tests) validated in a second, independent group of patients?
