4* Doody's Review!
Ideal for veterinary students, residents and clinicians, the fourth edition of this bestselling textbook has been fully updated in line with developments in research and teaching. The logical chapter progression reflects the stages in a clinical case work-up and how epidemiological concepts and methods contribute. This new edition
  • provides guidelines for improving patient and population health outcomes, and detecting emerging diseases through systematic evaluation of patient encounters and electronic medical records
  • incorporates new methodologies and concepts drawn from the recent veterinary practice literature
  • updates chapter content including expanded coverage of risk, statistical and economic analyses, and surveillance for emerging diseases
  • more than 60 examples of clinical research drawn from the international veterinary practice literature presented as structured abstracts; follow-up questions invite the reader to participate in the analysis of results
  • online links to full text versions of more than half of structured abstracts and more than 40% of the book’s 174 literature citations
  • updates the listing and review of public and private online resources, including guidelines for online literature searching and critical evaluation of clinical reports.
Today’s veterinary curricula places greater emphasis on experiential/problem-based learning versus discipline-oriented instruction. This fourth edition is ideally suited to introduce epidemiologic concepts and methodologies to veterinary students in the context of the patient encounter, and should be of use at any point in the veterinary curriculum.

Recenzii

In this fourth edition, Ron Smith has compiled the foundational information needed to assess literature and think as a clinician and clinician scientist. Using recent literature examples, foundational concepts relating to the diagnosis and management of individual patients and populations are clearly explained. Without getting lost in the math, the rationale for clinical test selection and design, selecting prognostic indicators, and assessment of treatment protocols for individuals and populations are outlined. Through this work, the author provides a solid foundation for an evidence-based approach to generating and consuming clinically relevant information.
- Dr Paul D. Pion, DVM, DipACVIM (Cardiology), president and co-founder of the Veterinary Information Network (VIN)
 
Ronald Smith’s clear and direct style is easy to read for students, and his layout by epidemiological concept provides a good framework for teaching veterinary students.
- Professor Scott Wells, Professor of Veterinary Population Medicine, University of Minnesota
 
 With its relatively short length and well-organized table of contents, this is a great reference for practicing veterinarians or veterinary students.
