June 1, 2017''Big data and Real World Evidence''
- Data: May 16, 2017
- Presenter: Augusto Afonso Guerra Jr., from the Federal University of Minas Gerais Brazil
- Issue: The objective of this webinar was to explore the importance of the origin of two data on the validation of technologies in health. The seminar discussed the difference between randomized clinical trials and real-world evidence of the use of administrative and epidemiological data banks to measure effectiveness data. However, the data from the real world may be very complex, providing a view that is difficult to achieve through randomized clinical trials. This real-world evidence can serve to ensure that health systems are achieving the expected results with the incorporation of technologies into health systems.
