Saúde Baseada em Evidências (Coursera)

Offered by Universidade Estadual de Campinas - UNICAMP,

Por que as informações na área da saúde são tão conflitantes? Existe algum lugar em que a informação sobre saúde é confiável? O que devo considerar ao deparar com alguma novidade que parece mágica? Como o sistema de saúde é afetado por essas questões? Essas e outras perguntas nortearam o curso Saúde Baseada em Evidências. Além dessas reflexões, são apontados aspectos sobre o desenvolvimento de pesquisas médicas que fornecem subsídios para uma interpretação mais apurada dos fatos.

Statistics & Data Analysis Data Science

Predictive analytics has a longstanding tradition in medicine. Developing better prediction models is a critical step in the pursuit of improved health care: we need these tools to guide our decision-making on preventive measures, and individualized treatments. In order to effectively use and develop these models, we must understand them better. In this course, you will learn how to make accurate prediction tools, and how to assess their validity. First, we will discuss the role of predictive analytics for prevention, diagnosis, and effectiveness. Then, we look at key concepts such as study design, sample size and overfitting.

Health & Society Medicine & Pharmacology

Clinical trials are experiments designed to evaluate new interventions to prevent or treat disease in humans. The interventions evaluated can be drugs, devices (e.g., hearing aid), surgeries, behavioral interventions (e.g., smoking cessation program), community health programs (e.g. cancer screening programs) or health delivery systems (e.g., special care units for hospital admissions). We consider clinical trials experiments because the investigators rather the patients or their doctors select the treatment the patients receive.
