German term or phrase: Endpunkete
The is the title of a section (toward the end of the study report):
I have it translated in one version as "Evaluation points"...

I am not sure this is the correct translation:

here is the context:


**Studien-endpunkte: Primärer Endpunkt: **
o Langzeitergebnisse am Zeitpunkt 36 Monate nach dem chirurgischen Eingriff des Anteils der Patienten, bei denen eine Hernien-Reoperation erforderlich ist oder eine Rezidivhernie auftritt.

disagree  Cetacea: Even if one of the terms was correct, it could only be one or the other. Criteria and conclusions definitely do not mean the same thing.

Endpunkte
endpoints


Explanation:
primary endpoint
the specific event that the study is designed to assess the effect of the drugs upon
...
secondary endpoints
these are additional events of interest, but which the study is not specifically powered to assess
http://www.gpnotebook.co.uk/simplepage.cfm?ID=x2005110913213...



“Primary” and “Secondary”.
Primary Endpoints.
These endpoints define the disease in the sense that an experimental drug that does not show superiority over placebo for all these endpoints is not a viable treatment for the disease under study.
Secondary endpoints
These endpoints, although not considered primary, are considered important to prescribing physicians in helping to identify the ideal treatment for each of their patients.
