Abstract

Textbook of Clinical Trials highlights the varied ways that clinical trials – particularly randomised controlled trials – have influenced the practice of medicine in many therapeutic areas. It describes the challenges posed by those conducting clinical trials over a range of medical specialities and allied fields and blends the development of clinical trial statistical methodology into this process. Uniquely this Textbook addresses issues as they impact on patients with diseases in the following specific areas: - Cancer - Cardiovascular disease - Complementary medicine - Respiratory disease - Dermatology - Dental disease and disorders - Mental health - Alzheimer’s Disease - Reproductive health - Gynaecology In addition, chapters deal with special issues in children and older patients. This is an essential reference for all involved with clinical trials. It will be of particular relevance to clinical trialists, whether with administrative, data management and quality, scientific or statistical roles, workers in the pharmaceutical industry, those who sit on ethics committees, work in regulatory departments or grant awarding bodies and doctors taking part in the conduct of clinical trials. - Pragmatic and readable Draws together critical information in one key text.

Abstract

As a new member of WHO Family of International Classifications, ICF describes how people live with their health condition. ICF is a classification of health and health related domains that describe body functions and structures, activities and participation. The domains are classified from body, individual and societal perspectives. Since an individual's functioning and disability occurs in a context, ICF also includes a list of environmental factors.ICF is useful to understand and measure health outcomes. It can be used in clinical settings, health services or surveys at the individual or population level. Thus ICF complements ICD-10 , The International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems and therefore is looking beyond mortality and disease.
