Healthcare Triage Explains Absolute Risk Reduction and Number Needed to Treat, and What That Means for Therapeutic Benefit

"Number Needed to Treat: Treatments Don't Work Like You Think They Work"

by Healthcare Triage

And also, follow this link for the continuation of the conversation about the "Number Needed to Harm: Treatments Can Hurt You," also by Healthcare Triage. Again, I apologize, I tried to embed the second video but Blogspot couldn't comprehend the URL.

Mission Statement

We are the Spring 2015 RN completion class at HPVC, and we hope this blog will become a resource for current students in both the LPN and RN program. We will cover subjects from basic algebra to critical care, study tips, test prep tips, and licensing information. There is no particular order to the posts, as they mostly cover discussions over questions and concepts that we don't understand in class. This blog is driven by your questions, so it is important that you ask them either in a comment, or an e-mail (see below). Most of all, we hope you'll participate in building this blog as a gift to yourselves and to classes to come.
