Critical appraisal and evidence-based medicine are essential for good medical practice throughout your career.

This book has been specifically designed to help GP trainees pass the compulsory AKT examination. Each topic has been skilfully refined to correlate directly with primary care and the RCGP curriculum, revealing how and why critical appraisal and evidence-based medicine are essential for good medical practice throughout a career as an independent, knowledgeable, caring and thoughtful general practitioner.

It includes invaluable preparation suggestions and an overall outline of the AKT, an introduction to statistics and qualitative methods, quantitative methods, epidemiology, common research methods and outcomes, useful tests used in epidemiological studies, research ethics, measures of mortality and economic analyses. Each chapter features unique, topic specific questions to reinforce comprehension, with an entire final chapter devoted to sample questions, comprehensively testing expertise and developing confidence.

Ideal for revision and self-examination, RCGP AKT: Research, Epidemiology and Statistics gives GP trainees a vital edge when preparing for the AKT. 'This book, written with verve and clarity, is both a primer for the AKT and a guide to good practice. It will travel with you through your first decades in general practice as an aide-memoire and a source of wisdom. It contains truths that will be your talismans and guides. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have.' From the Foreword by Professor Mike Pringle
