That is correct, the higher the cutoff, the more likely you are to miss a diseased patient, hence the lower the sensitivity. R.

>>The higher the cutoff the lower the sensitivity and the higher the PPV<< First of all, Dr. Ramirez' name is EFRAIN not EFRAIM. Sensitivity is the probability that a diseased patient (i.e, gestational diabetes) has an abnormal test (i.e, glucose tolerance test). Now, does this agree with your above captioned statement??

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
