Beschreibung:
Mitchell Maltenfort lurched into academic life as a computational neurobiologist before drifting into the less recherché field of biostatistics. He knows just enough to make a complete hash out of things and is creative enough to salvage them afterwards. In his brutish culture, this tradition is known as "larnin'." For tax purposes, he is employed as a biostatistician at CHOP, where he has generated risk scores for hospitalization, analyzed diagnostic variations among clinics, compared international trends in childhood mortality, and evaluated patient-reported outcome scores.
This is a concise book that explains ideas of statistical reasoning for an audience of practising surgeons. It covers topics of specific interest to surgeons, notably concerning patient outcomes after surgery. It uses concrete real examples to illustrate the usefulness of statistical methods.
