Table 2.

2 × 2 contingency table for all participants

    Leak (determined by quantitative fit test)  
    QnFT fail (leak present)   n QnFT pass (leak absent)   n Row total
Bedside screening test (fogging) Positive (fogging present) True-positive a = 25 False-positive (Type I error) c = 19 a + c = 44
  Negative (fogging absent) False-negative (Type II error) b = 10 True-negative d = 16 b + d = 26
  Column total   a + b = 35   c + d = 35  

Formulas: Sensitivity = a/(a + c), specificity = d/(c + d), positive likelihood ratio = sensitivity/(1 − specificity), negative likelihood ratio = (1 − sensitivity)/specificity
