Caregiver Diary Complete Interval Share Tool

Calculate caregiver diary complete interval share from explicit caller-supplied inputs.

Description

Return recordedMinutes, completeOfRecorded=complete/recorded, and completeOfPlanned=complete/(recorded+unobserved).

Pediatric research records use chronological age, visit windows, measurement resolution, task observations, and caregiver reports. Missing observation differs from noncompletion, and a completeness share depends on its denominator. Arithmetic on supplied records is separate from a developmental or clinical assessment.

Return recordedMinutes, completeOfRecorded=complete/recorded, and completeOfPlanned=complete/(recorded+unobserved).

When to use this tool

Use Caregiver Diary Complete Interval Share when you need this age, observation, visit, measurement, or record-completeness calculation with supplied inputs.

How to use the tool and how it works

  1. Enter completeMinutes, incompleteMinutes, unobservedMinutes. Use the units and conventions below.
  2. Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
  3. Read recordedMinutes, completeOfRecorded, completeOfPlanned. Use the output convention below.

For nonnegative completeMinutes, incompleteMinutes, and unobservedMinutes require positive complete+incomplete. Return recordedMinutes, completeOfRecorded=complete/recorded, and completeOfPlanned=complete/(recorded+unobserved).1

Limitations and assumptions

  • All terms use minutes and the categories are supplied. Different denominators answer different completeness questions; neither share establishes diary accuracy, caregiving quality, or a clinical assessment.
  • Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
  • Numeric calculations use binary floating point unless exact decimal-integer arithmetic is explicitly stated. No hidden measurement tolerance or decimal rounding is added; nonfinite or out-of-contract results are rejected. Signed zero is exported as zero.

Alternative or Complementary methods

Use verified dates, measurement protocols, and observation definitions for the intended research question. A clinical interpretation needs the relevant age-specific assessment and context beyond the arithmetic record check.
