Synopsis

As the evidence-based medicine movement gathers momentum, it is becoming apparent that valuable information can be derived from individual case studies, provided that the information is structured correctly from the outset. Good clinical reports and case studies must link together several elements of clinical epidemiology, clinimetrics, qualitative research principles and methods for gathering information on individual clinical situations. The first edition of 'Clinical Case Reporting in Evidence-Based Medicine' was timely in its explanations of the theory and practice of choosing and reporting clinical cases: this new edition provides additional coverage on routine case reports in medicine, surgery and psychiatry, case reporting in occupational medicine and in tort litigation at courts of law.



This remains an essentially practical book which is a vital companion to any medical professional contributing to research through individual case reports.

About this title

Review

This slim volume is probably the only book devoted to the art and place of clinical case reports in modern medicine. This volume is to be highly recommended. I believe that Jenicek is right when he asks us to take case reports seriously.
