Assessment of clinical technologies. Importance for provision and use
Abstract:
The author contends that the diffusion and use of modern medical technologies has had a profound impact on the hospital environment, the doctor-patient relationship, and the humanity of the patient. On these grounds the author argues for a rigorous, comprehensive, and ongoing assessment of diagnostic and therapeutic technologies. He stresses the importance of developing standards by which to judge the human and economic impact of particular technologies. These studies would decrease the inappropriate use of medical technology and would provide guidelines to improve current use.
