BMC Geriatrics

Table 3 Reasons for non-attempt

Reasons	Nr. of measurements	% of measurements	Nr. of participants
Patient felt physically unwell	99	41	48
Patient was otherwise engaged	96	40	52
Technological problems	2	1	2
Other/unknown	42	18	25

Percentages are given relative to the 239 planned but not attempted measurements (GS, FR and GW) in the group scheduled to be measured twice daily (RM group). Participants had multiple measurements planned and can therefore end up in multiple rows. Total number of participants with non-attempted tests was 87
