Abstract

The UCEIS and its components show satisfactory intrainvestigator and interinvestigator reliability. Among investigators, the UCEIS accounted for a median of 86% of the variability in evaluation of overall severity on the VAS when assessing the endoscopic severity of UC and was unaffected by knowledge of clinical details.
