Research is an integral part of medicine. Health research aims at generating evidence for development of new medicines, procedures and tools, all of which are directed at improved patient care. Research also aims at incorporating this evidence into clinical practice by developing clinical practice guidelines and developing robust health systems including governmental policies and systems. Health research not only allows doctors to decide how to best treat patients but also empowers patients to take active role in their health.
研究是医学的一个组成部分。卫生研究旨在为新药、新程序和新工具的开发提供证据,所有这些都旨在改善患者的护理。研究还旨在通过制定临床实践指南和建立健全的卫生系统,包括政府政策和系统,将这一证据纳入临床实践。卫生研究不仅使医生能够决定如何最好地治疗患者,而且使患者能够积极参与自己的健康。
