This book is about how to evaluate the reliability and clinical usefulness of clinical trials. Written for physicians and other health care professionals, this book is written in easy-to-understand terms that even the layperson can understand and put to use.

In a few hours, you can learn basic critical appraisal skills to help you evaluate clinical trials and other medical research studies of therapeutic interventions. And here's why you need toâ€”

The shocking truth is that most scientific research that informs most doctors' medical decisions is unreliable or is of uncertain reliability. And many doctors and other health care professionals do not realize this.

Every day patients are harmed by unfortunate health care choicesâ€”and some of them die because of it. Too often this happens because of problems with the information provided to the patientâ€”or its lackâ€”where different information could have resulted in a very different choiceâ€”and a very different outcome.

The good news is that you only need to know a few, easy-to-understand statistics, and you need a few basic concepts to help you understand bias and chance.

Based on our popular simplified and tool-based approach, this Short How-to Guide Book in our Evidence-based Practice Series will provide you with the basic skills for evaluating much of the medical literature.

You will learn that the primary key to understanding the reliability of studies is largely about study design, execution and study performance outcomes.

This book will help your patients better avoid what has happened to millions of patientsâ€”insufficient or misleading information leading to unfortunate choices that resulted in bad outcomes.
