Essential concepts in clinical epidemiology for pediatric practice.

M M Phillips1, J M Pascoe.   

Abstract

Providing the best possible health care requires the integration of individual clinical experience with external clinical information, often derived from published research papers. This article reviews several important concepts in clinical epidemiology that should help the pediatric clinician become a more active and critical reader. Among the basic concepts reviewed are measurement of disease occurrence, relative risk, and screening within the context of the pediatric practice.
