| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Adherence to the clinical rules. In particular adherence will be calculated in the following ways: 1. We will calculate the pass rates for each rule. The pass rate of a rule is the proportion of times that a rule was followed when it was triggered; 2. We will calculate the pass rate without distinction to specific rules (the proportion of times any rules was followed when it was triggered); We will compare our results with the results of our baseline measurements. | — |
