Feasibility outcomes
| Feasibility criteria | Result | Feasibility assessment |
| Primary outcomes | ||
| 80% or more of eligible patients consent to data collection and follow-up (patients approached to participate in trial: n=186) | 176/186 (94.6%) | Green |
| 90% use of the model during intervention period (n=76 in intervention period) | Model used in 73 cases (96.1%) | Green |
| Secondary outcomes | ||
| 95% or more of clinicians working within the participating ED agree to take part in the trial | 100% | Green |
| Follow-up data for patient secondary outcomes can be collected for 80% or more of patients (n=176) | Clinical data: 176 (100%) SF-12: 128 (72.7%) CSRI data available: 137 (78.8%) | Green Amber Amber |
| All clinicians involved in the trial receive formal training in the use of the model | 100% | Green |
| Patient secondary outcome measures reported in the intervention period are equal to, or better than, those reported during the conventional management period | See table 3 below | Amber |
| Mean quality of life reported in intervention arm is not less than 80% of that reported in control arm | See table 4 below | Green |
Number of cases (percentages). Feasibility criteria traffic light system: green, feasibility criteria achieved; amber, feasibility criteria not achieved but progression is possible with some minor protocol modifications.
