Clinician's pocket guide to basic data analysis with Python coding

by Maxwell Flitton

As the presence of data in healthcare is ever growing more advanced methods of data sorting and processing is needed. However, doctors and nurses are busy with long shifts and traditional professional development. The Author of this book has over 5 years emergency medicine combined with a physics degree and experience in coding in multiple languages. The Author has also spoken at multiple events including the Royal Society of Medicine about teaching, and utilising code for doctors and nurses. In just 64 pages (18,500 words) this book teaches clinicians who have no coding experience at all how to develop a basic mathematical model, code a DVT risk score calculator and sort/analyse data from data files. By the end of the book, you will be able to code your own data processing functions, and pass them though to any data projects you have when you need them making data processing quick. If you want to supercharge your audits or have a real practical edge when applying for academic training positions this is the book for you.
