Fig 3 Point estimates and 95% CIs for minimum clinically significant differences for the BOOMER calculated from development and validation datasets. Data presented are point estimate and 95% CI of the mean difference between groups. *Discharge BOOMER – admission BOOMER (within subjects), for inpatients discharged to the community. †Admission BOOMER for subjects for whom improving standing balance was a fourth- or lower-ranked treatment goal – admission BOOMER for subjects who had improving standing balance as 1 of their top 3 treatment goals (between subjects). ‡Admission BOOMER for outpatient or domiciliary patients – admission BOOMER for inpatients (between subjects). §Discharge BOOMER for patients whose living status at discharge was the community – discharge BOOMER for patients whose living status at discharge was not the community (eg, nursing home, hospital) (between subjects). ∥Change in BOOMER (discharge – admission) for people whose improvement in FIM motor score was 10 points or more – change in BOOMER (discharge – admission) for people whose improvement in FIM motor score was less than 10 points (between subjects).
