Record 3 2011-09-16

English

Subject field(s)
  • Scientific Research
  • General Medicine, Hygiene and Health
DEF

Medical experiments performed on human beings.

CONT

Human experimentation is an important part of medical research, and many people volunteer for clinical trials of medical treatments.

OBS

There is always uncertainty about moving from animal to human experimentation or therapy. But in the usual case, what justifies the assumption of this added unknown risk is that the experimental subject is a likely beneficiary of the research, either directly or indirectly.

French

  • Recherche scientifique
  • Médecine générale, hygiène et santé
CONT

L'expérimentation humaine [permet] d'évaluer l'utilité thérapeutique réelle d'une méthode mise au point chez l'animal.

DEF

Investigaciones y ensayos médicos sobre hombres y mujeres a fin de prevenir, diagnosticar y tratar las enfermedades.

CONT

El avance en Medicina está fundado en la investigación y por ello no puede prescindir, en muchos casos, de la experimentación sobre seres humanos [...]. El médico está obligado a mantener una clara distinción entre los procedimientos en fase de ensayo y los que ya han sido aceptados como válidos para la práctica concreta de la medicina del momento. El ensayo clínico de nuevos procedimientos no privará al paciente de recibir un tratamiento válido.

DEF

Describes an experiment or clinical trial in which animal or human subjects are assigned by chance to separate groups that compare different treatments.

CONT

[A] randomized clinical trial [is] a study in which the participants are assigned by chance to separate groups that compare different treatments; neither the researchers nor the participants can choose which group. Using chance to assign people to groups means that the groups will be similar and that the treatments they receive can be compared objectively. At the time of the trial, it is not known which treatment is best. It is the patient's choice to be in a randomized trial.
