Table 3.

Reliability of real-time and video-recorded assessment for Unesp-Botucatu cattle pain scale (UCAPS) and need for rescue analgesia.

Variable Method Coefficient Estimate CI P value
UCAPS Real-time ICC 0.90 0.85–0.94  < 0.0001
UCAPS Video-recorded ICC 0.81 0.71–0.87  < 0.0001
Rescue Analgesia Real-time Weighted Kappa 0.70 0.53–0.84 NA
Rescue Analgesia Video-recorded Weighted Kappa 0.48 0.28–0.66 NA

ICC intraclass correlation coefficient, CI 95% confidence interval. The interpretation of ICC or weighted kappa was ‘very good’ 0.81–1.0; ‘good’ 0.61–0.80; ‘moderate’ 0.41–0.60; ‘reasonable’ 0.21–0.4; and ‘poor’ < 0.238.
