Recent reports and news stories have, however, documented disturbing examples of relationships and practices that put at risk the integrity of medical research, the objectivity of professional education, the quality of patient care, the soundness of clinical practice guidelines, and the public's trust in medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eConflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education, and Practice\u003c\/em\u003e provides a comprehensive look at conflict of interest in medicine. It offers principles to inform the design of policies to identify, limit, and manage conflicts of interest without damaging constructive collaboration with industry. It calls for both short-term actions and long-term commitments by institutions and individuals, including leaders of academic medical centers, professional societies, patient advocacy groups, government agencies, and drug, device, and pharmaceutical companies. Failure of the medical community to take convincing action on conflicts of interest invites additional legislative or regulatory measures that may be overly broad or unduly burdensome.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eConflict of Interest in Medical Research, Education, and Practice\u003c\/em\u003e makes several recommendations for strengthening conflict of interest policies and curbing relationships that create risks with little benefit. The book will serve as an invaluable resource for individuals and organizations committed to high ethical standards in all realms of medicine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Institute of Medicine, Board on Health Sciences Policy, Committee on Conflict of Interest in Med\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 030913188X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780309131889\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e National Academies Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/01\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 436\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.34w x 1.12d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 04\/01\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eScitech Book News\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2009 pg. 76","brand":"Institute of Medicine","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43913631269119,"sku":"9780309131889","price":54.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_9b01bdeb-d6fe-4db5-8699-167030f5e7a2.jpg?v=1680621466","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/conflict-of-interest-in-medical-institute-of-medicine-9780309131889","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
