Quantum theory is inherently statistical. This entails repetition of experiments over a number of identically prepared quantum objects, if one wants to know the "true state" or the "true value" of the parameter that specifies the quantum state. In applications, one needs to design the estimation procedure in such a way that the estimated value of the parameter should be close to the true value (consistency), and that the uncertainty of the estimated value should be as small as possible (efficiency).
