Opis

In an age when electronic health records (EHRs) are an increasingly important source of population data, this is the essential textbook for any researcher using EHRs to conduct research and analysis.

Split into three parts, the book covers the whole research journey, beginning with the planning a research project, accessing and organizing EHR data, and the issues to be mindful of. The second part looks at the core research process, including sampling and analysis, measures of validity and statistical Inference. The final part introduces the presentation of a piece of research, its publication, and also includes a range of case studies.

Supported by examples and insights throughout, and applicable across a range of research software programs (R, SPSS and SAS), this is the ideal text for students and researchers engaging with EHR across epidemiological and clinical research.
