  5. SSc diagnosis SSc classification

  6. ACR Preliminary Classification Criteria for Systemic Sclerosis Major criterion * Proximal scleroderma Minor criteria * Sclerodactyly * Digital pitting or scars or loss of substance from finger pad * Bibasilar pulmonary fibrosis Major criterion or 2 minor criteria Arthritis Rheum 1980; 23:581-90

  7. ACR Preliminary Classification Criteria for Systemic Sclerosis Sensitivity 97% of definite SSc cases Specificity 98% the comparison patients 1 major criterion or ≥ 2 minor criteria Arthritis Rheum 1980; 23:581-90

  9. Limitations of ACR classificationcriteriaforSSc • LimitedcutaneousSSc • EarlySSc Miss subsets New knowledge Nailfold capillaries SSc- specific antibodies 20% SSc classification SSc diagnosis .

  10. Collaboration between experts and clinical epidemiologists Balance of expert based and data driven methods Avoid circularity of reasoning Evaluate psychometric properties of candidate criteria

  12. Item Generation (Delphi panel) N = 168 Item Reduction (Delphi panel followed by Nominal Group Technique) N = 23 Consensus Method Evaluate validity of items in SSc and SSc mimickers Item reduction, weighting & scaling Data-Driven Method Collect prospective data in SSc and SSc mimickers Evaluate operating characteristics of SSc criteria
