Terluin, B. (author), Eekhout, I. (author), Terwee, C.B. (author)Objectives. Patients have their individual minimal important changes (iMICs) as their personal benchmarks to determine whether a perceived health-related quality of life (HRQOL) change constitutes a (minimally) important change for them. We denote the mean iMIC in a group of patients as the “genuine MIC” (gMIC). The aims of this paper are to...article 2017
