Low, G., Molzahn, A. E., Kalfoss, M.
The aim of this study was to examine the validity and reliability of the WHOQOL–BREF, a generic quality of life scale, among older people in Canada and Norway. Very similar data from the Canadian and Norwegian Field Trial data (Canada n = 192; Norway, n = 469) were analyzed and compared. Higher...

Tooth length measurement accuracy and reliability with cone-beam CT and panoramic radiography
DownloadSpring 2010
This study assessed the accuracy and reliability of tooth length measurements through axial, coronal and sagittal serial slices of CBCT volumes; conventional panoramic radiographs; and CBCT panoramic reconstructions to that of a digital caliper gold standard. Samples consisted of maxillary...

Using the Ottawa Surgical Competency Operative Room Evaluation (O-SCORE) in a Canadian Plastic Surgery Program
DownloadFall 2016
Competency-based medical education has overtaken the traditional apprenticeship model of medical education. This shift toward competence-based training demands a higher number of assessments per trainee. Current assessment methods in Plastic Surgery have not been well studied. Numerous assessment...

Within- and between-day reliability of spinal stiffness measurements obtained using a computer controlled mechanical indenter in individuals with and without low back pain
2013-03-25
Wong, Arnold Y. Parent, Eric C. Kawchuk, Gregory N. Prasad, Narasimha.
Instrumented spinal stiffness measurements have shown high testeretest reliability. However, factors that may affect reliability have yet to be investigated. The objective of this study was to compare the: 1) within- and between-day reliability of a mechanical indentation device (MID) in...
