While randomized controlled trials (RCTs) remain the gold standard for evaluation of the safety and efficacy of most medical interventions, they are particularly difficult to implement successfully in the context of surgery. As a result, recruitment rates are often extremely low, crossover from non-operative to operative is common, and patients randomly allocated to surgery often simply decline to have the procedure. All of these challenges call into question the recent generalizability and fundamental quality of traditional surgical RCTs. As such, this book explores advanced alternative trial design methods and describes the current regulatory environment around the world. Designed as a practical guide, it is a valuable tool for surgeons, epidemiologist and biostatisticians involved in this challenging field.Surgical trialsSurgeryResearchSurgeryResearchMoral and ethical aspectsOrthopedicsEpidemiologySurgeryBiometryBioinformaticsGeneral Surgerymethods(DNLM)D013502Q000379Clinical Trials as Topic(DNLM)D002986Research Design(DNLM)D012107Biostatistics(DNLM)D056808Computational Biology(DNLM)D019295Epidemiologic Research Design(DNLM)D015340Orthopedic Proceduresmethods(DNLM)D019637Q000379Epidemiology(DNLM)D004813Orthopedics(DNLM)D009985SurgeryResearch.SurgeryResearchMoral and ethical aspects.Orthopedics.Epidemiology.Surgery.Biometry.Bioinformatics.General SurgerymethodsClinical Trials as TopicResearch DesignBiostatisticsComputational BiologyEpidemiologic Research DesignOrthopedic ProceduresmethodsEpidemiology.Orthopedics616.7Lyman Stephen1970-Ayeni Olufemi R.Koh JasonNakamura NorimasaKarlsson JonInternational Society of Arthroscopy, Knee Surgery, and Orthopaedic Sports Medicine,MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910983345103321Introduction to surgical trials4547355UNINA
