CTM supports assessment of care transitions in older adults; leaves open prospective outcome validation before routine use.
Effect estimate: Spearman correlations 0.388-0.594
The Care Transition Measure (CTM) was developed and validated as a patient-centered tool to assess the quality of care transitions for older adults.
Coleman et al. (2002) studied Care transitions (n=109). Care Transition Measure (CTM) was evaluated on Construct validity (Spearman correlations 0.388-0.594). The Care Transition Measure (CTM) was developed and demonstrated content and construct validity (inter-item Spearman correlations 0.388-0.594) with no significant floor or ceiling effects.
