Abstract

The interobserver variation among two expe¬rienced endoscopists in the assessment endoscopic acti¬vity index was investigated in 48 patients with ulcerati¬ve colitis. Results were analyzed with kappa statistics. According to kappa values, agreement on the endoscopic assessment of vascular pattern, granularity and mucosa were good to fair (Kappa values: 0.559, 0.530, 0.564 respectively). In the assessment of fragility, agreement among the endoscopists was excellent (Kappa: 0.757 ). This study showed that interobserver variation on the parameters of endoscopic activity index is acceptable.

Özet

48 Ülseratif kolitli hastada endoskopik aktivite indeksi değerlendirmesindeki güzlemci farklılığı araştı¬rıldı. Sonuçlar kappa istatistiği kullanılarak değerlen¬dirildi. Kappa değerlerine göre damarağı, granularity ve mukozanın değerlendirilmesinde iyi lorta derecede uyum Saptanırken (sırasıyla kappa değerleri: 0.559, 0.530, 0.564), frajilitenin değerlendirilmesinde mükem¬mel uyum güzlendi (Kappa:0.757). Çalışmamız endos¬kopik aktivasyon indeksini oluşturan parametrelerdeki gözlemci farklılığının kabul edilebilir düzeyde olduğu¬nu ortaya koymaktadır.
