About Auxiliary Measures

An auxiliary measure specifies a baseline or goal value to be compared with the measure value. They are intended to provide context for the measure.

You can specify an auxiliary measure in the Measure block of the factory configuration file, or in Workbench 7.1(20) and later, you can specify an auxiliary measure in the Measure Factory Editor.

aux-measure"Variance % threshold" `(measure("Acute ALOS")-measure("Acute ALOS Target threshold"))*100/measure("Acute ALOS Target threshold")`
