See how simulation modeling reveals the paths and pitfalls of new medical technology.
This book uses PTCA as a case study to show how computer-based models help decision-makers understand how a technology might develop and spread, and how policy choices may shape its use.
Guided by a clear framework, it shows how the medical community and government interact as a technology moves from testing to real-world use. You’ll learn how a well-built model translates complex practice dynamics into scenarios that inform safer, smarter policy decisions."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a unique modeling approach towards assessing the development and dissemination of newly emerging medical technologies like PTCA, an innovative procedure for treating coronary heart disease. By contrasting it with an unsuccessful pattern, the book illustrates how varying critical assumptions about the procedure's potential for development and other factors can lead to opposite patterns of use over time. The author's insights into the processes driving the development and dissemination of medical technologies can aid policymakers to minimize the risks of inappropriate usage while fostering the potential for positive impact. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781331208709_0
