Providing a framework for practicing evidence-based medicine, this easy-to-use exam-oriented text covers the key aspects of critical appraisal. Using simple explanations and memorable clinical examples, the book discusses all aspects of study design and clinical audit to give a clear framework for critical reading. Coverage includes prospective, retrospective, randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews. The book includes a glossary of epidemiological and statistical terms and definitions and a section that explores statistical concepts in detail. Students will learn how to understand medical research publications, read them critically, and decide whether the content is clinically useful in the care of patients.
It is a great summary for those with some epidemiology and statistical background. Good for those in the research field!
A very good book for critical appraisal. Easy to read with loads of funny examples. A few typo's with one or two graphics but on the whole, well worth it.
