Comparative effectiveness research (CER) is the generation and
synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms of
alternative methods to prevent, diagnose, treat, and monitor a
clinical condition or to improve the delivery of care (IOM 2009).
CER is conducted to develop evidence that will aid patients,
clinicians, purchasers, and health policy makers in making informed
decisions at both the individual and population levels. CER
encompasses a very broad range of types of studies-experimental,
observational, prospective, retrospective, and research synthesis.
This volume covers the main areas of quantitative methodology for
the design and analysis of CER studies. The volume has four major
sections-causal inference; clinical trials; research synthesis; and
specialized topics. The audience includes CER methodologists,
quantitative-trained researchers interested in CER, and graduate
students in statistics, epidemiology, and health services and
outcomes research. The book assumes a masters-level course in
regression analysis and familiarity with clinical research.
