How to Read and Understand Clinical Trials with Dr C. Michael Gibson
Let us know your thoughts. We would love to hear from you.
Dr Nero and Dr Gibson discuss how to understand the information when looking at clinical trial data. Is it meaningful for a patient? Did the trail population match the patient's risks and medical problems? The also discuss the importance of Shared Decision Making and the use of Absolute Risk Reduction and Number Needed To Treat when interpreting the results. Yes, this is about statistics, but it isn't boring and it is important for your health.
