On rank ordering medical treatments
Patient global assessment measured in clinical trials, that is, patient’s opinion of success, is used herein to rank order medical treatment effectiveness. Virtually all clinical trials evaluate patient global assessment, and the objective of medical treatment is patient satisfaction. Comparing medical treatments with each other using other measurements is complicated because there is no one commonly acceptable measurement that represents each rheumatic disease, and rheumatic disease laboratory tests are nonspecific.
Side effects
Pharmacists provide a side effect list for each prescription medication upon request.
