Medical chart: reference standard
CaseNon-case
OSCOUR database
CaseTrue positive (TP)False positive (FP)PPV=TP/(TP+FP)
Non-caseFalse negative (FN)True negative (TN)NPV=TN/(TN+FN)
Sensitivity=TP/(TP+FN)Specificity=TN/(TN+FP)
  • mTBI, mild traumatic brain injury; NPV, negative predictive value; PPV, positive predictive value.
