AB  - Two  components  of  a  measurable  goal  are  the  target  value  and  the  expected  time  frame  for  meeting  the  target  value.  We  learned  in  previous  chapters  that  the  target  value  can  be  written  in  terms  of  a  change  score  or  as  an  absolute  value  for  the  outcome  of  interest.  Having  found  prognostic  evidence  regarding  your  patient's  condition,  the  trick  now  is  to  place  a  time  estimate  on  when  you  think  the  patient  might  expect  to  experience  an  appreciable  change  in  his  or  her  condition.  Our  take  is  that  there  is  less  evidence  to  guide  decisions  regarding  temporal  elements  of  goals  than  even  the  goals  themselves.  We  have  come  up  with  two  approaches  that  may  help  you  in  deciding  on  the  optimal  time  frames  for  reevaluating  your  patients  to  assess  for  progression  toward  goal  attainment.
