minimal clinically significant differences, and anchor versus distribution methods  

Définition

  • When measuring quality of life, patient preferences, health status, or other types of patient reported outcomes (PROs), the term minimal clinically significant difference (MCSD) indicates the smallest amount of meaningful change or difference that can be assessed by a PRO measure. The term meaningful change, in this context, refers to the smallest difference that is perceived by patients (or other stakeholders) as beneficial or harmful and that would lead to a change in treatment.
