Hi Masato! Correct – this PASS has a fairly high specificity, which tells us the true negative rate. If the patient had a negative result (meaning he scored less than 12.5 on the PASS), we would have high confidence that he would not be independently ambulatory at discharge due to the PASS’s 83.7% specificity. 🙂
