Preamble
Let us know your thoughts. We would love to hear from you.
At Patients First, we aim to improve understanding of difficult topics in cardiology and medicine in general. Easy enough for the layman, but detailed enough for someone who wants to know more about their condition or that of a loved one. This first episode introduces the topic of outcomes based research and evidence based medicine. It also discusses the important concept of NNT: Number Needed to Treat ie we have to treat 50 people for 2 years to avoid 1 event as an important indicator of efficacy of therapy. These concepts will be referred to in future podcasts
