Speaking of Evidence-Based Treatment
"Unlike jurors, clinicians frequently must make decisions without the luxury of the totality of evidence. When we speak of evidence-based medicine, it is important to remember that available data may be incomplete, outdated, and of questionable relevance to particular patients, especially those excluded from randomized trials."Joseph P. Carrozza, Jr. MD.
"As we grow in learning, we more justly appreciate our dependence upon each other. The sum-total of medical knowledge is now so great and wide-spreading that it would be futile for one man to attempt to acquire, or for one man to assume that he has, even a good working knowledge of any large part of the whole. The very necessities of the case are driving practitioners into cooperation. The best interest of the patient is the only interest to be considered, and in order that the sick may benefit of advancing knowledge, union of forces is necessary."
