“…Data interpretation may involve subjective judgments and interpretations, particularly in cases where measurement results are ambiguous or open to interpretation. Standardizing data interpretation practices and minimizing subjectivity is essential for ensuring consistency and reliability in metrological analyses (Karaböce, 2020).…”

Precision metrology plays a pivotal role in modern manufacturing processes by ensuring the attainment of high-quality standards and the optimization of production efficiency. This comprehensive review delves into the significance of precision metrology in enhancing manufacturing quality across diverse industries. The review encompasses an examination of advanced metrological techniques, their applications, challenges, and future prospects. The review begins by elucidating the fundamental principles of precision metrology, emphasizing its critical role in quantifying dimensional accuracy, surface finish, and other crucial parameters in manufacturing. It explores the evolution of metrology from conventional methods to state-of-the-art technologies such as coordinate measuring machines (CMMs), optical metrology, and 3D scanning systems. The integration of these techniques into modern manufacturing environments has revolutionized quality control processes, enabling real-time monitoring and rapid feedback mechanisms. Furthermore, the review highlights the multifaceted applications of precision metrology across various industries, including automotive, aerospace, electronics, and medical devices. It elucidates how metrological advancements have facilitated the production of intricate components with tight tolerances, thereby enhancing product performance, reliability, and safety. Additionally, the review examines the role of metrology in ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and certifications, crucial for industries with stringent quality requirements. Despite its numerous benefits, precision metrology also poses challenges, such as measurement uncertainties, calibration complexities, and data interpretation issues. The review discusses these challenges in detail and explores emerging strategies and technologies aimed at mitigating them. Furthermore, it addresses the need for standardized metrological practices and international collaboration to foster interoperability and harmonization in global manufacturing ecosystems. Looking ahead, the review outlines future directions and opportunities in precision metrology, including advancements in artificial intelligence, machine learning, and Internet of Things (IoT) integration for predictive maintenance and autonomous quality control systems. It underscores the importance of continued research and innovation in metrology to address evolving manufacturing demands and ensure sustained improvements in product quality and competitiveness. In conclusion, this comprehensive review underscores the indispensable role of precision metrology in enhancing manufacturing quality, driving innovation, and shaping the future of modern industry.

“…The temporal component of physiological measurements is important, and therefore should also be considered when assessing the impact of measurement errors (40), yet this process has been constrained by the fact that medicine has been relatively slow to embrace a robust approach to the measurement of time (41)(42)(43). To address this problem, we need to establish a formal and principled discipline around identification of timing errors and quantification of temporal uncertainty (44)(45)(46).…”

A firm concept of time is essential for establishing causality in a clinical setting. Review of critical incidents and generation of study hypotheses require a robust understanding of the sequence of events but conducting such work can be problematic when timestamps are recorded by independent and unsynchronized clocks. Most clinical models implicitly assume that timestamps have been measured accurately and precisely, but this custom will need to be re-evaluated if our algorithms and models are to make meaningful use of higher frequency physiological data sources. In this narrative review we explore factors that can result in timestamps being erroneously recorded in a clinical setting, with particular focus on systems that may be present in a critical care unit. We discuss how clocks, medical devices, data storage systems, algorithmic effects, human factors, and other external systems may affect the accuracy and precision of recorded timestamps. The concept of temporal uncertainty is introduced, and a holistic approach to timing accuracy, precision, and uncertainty is proposed. This quantitative approach to modeling temporal uncertainty provides a basis to achieve enhanced model generalizability and improved analytical outcomes.

“…Studenti studijního programu "měření a zkušebnictví" se v laboratoři naučí principy medicínské metrologie, od kalibrací/ověřování jednotlivých přístrojů ve zdravotnictví až po jejich vysledovatelnost a spolehlivost s klíčovým pohledem na metrologickou návaznost. [10] K medicínské metrologii a jejím principům se v rámci vzdělávání přidává také tematická legislativní oblast "MDR (Medical Device Regulation)", která definuje tvrdé požadavky na nezávislost a nestrannost při uvádění výrobků na trh a pro jejich využívání v praxi. Dále i oblast legální metrologie každého státu vytváří prostřednictvím ověřování stanovených měřidel ve zdravotnictví [11] důležitý předpoklad pro zabezpečení kvalitní medicínské metrologie, která je klíčová při kritickém rozhodování v klinické praxi.…”
