DEVELOPMENT OF INFORMATION
- Today we can hardly imagine how painful the introduction of theoretical and experimental methods into medical practice was
- The empirics believed, that observation was the only acceptable basis of medical practice
- It is painful to hear the argument of today’s empirics that medicine is an „art“ that doesn’t need formalization
- Today it is not the use of experiments that is targeted, today’s battle is directed against people that are introducing formal theoretical methods of regulation into the healthcare system (clinical audit, KPI, outcome measures, EBM)
