7. improvement vs improvement: aim for improvement in care, real world observation with before/
research studies after comparison, accept consistent bias, sample size just enough data (small
sequential samples), hypothesis is flexible & changes as testing takes place, several
sequential test, run charts, data used only by those involved in improvement
research: aim for new knowledge, trial is blinded or controlled, designed to elim-
inate bias, enough data to demonstrate statistical significance, fixed hypothesis,
one large test, hypothesis testing and statistical analysis, reattach subjects identity
is protected
8. therapy PICO is this intervention more effective than another? = use randomized controlled trial
question (RCT)
9. diagnostic test how accurate is this diagnostic test?= use prospective, blinded controlled test
PICO question compared to gold standard test

question study> case-control> case series
