running-in period Explanation: According to Babylon: running-in period תקופת הרצה (תקופה ראשונית של בדיקת העניין) תקופת הרצה running-in period, breaking-in period -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 6 mins (2008-11-07 21:13:45 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- there's also a "breaking-in period", but it's much less common -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 20 mins (2008-11-07 21:27:40 GMT) Post-grading -------------------------------------------------- Examples: http://www.healthwatch-uk.org/prize 2008.pdf Following recruitment, the women will have a two-months running-in period, documenting their experience of PMS symptoms, to provide a baseline record. Thereafter, women will be randomised to saffron or identical looking placebo on a 1:1 ratio, using a computer generated code. Women will be seen pre trial, at the end of the two-months running-in period, and at 2, 4 and 6 months after the start of medication. http://www.bsped.org.uk/professional/projects/sga/NESGAS pro... All children receive prescribed Growth hormone 67 µg/kg bodyweight/day. Non-responders (∆HV SDS<+1) will be excluded after 1 year of treatment on this fixed dose (67 µg/kg/day), and treatment will be stopped. This year can be considered a running-in period, followed by stratification of patients to treatment arms. Non-responders will be followed in parallel with the responders, and evaluated according to the protocol. Reference: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct... |
