Abstract:

Often, the interaction between physician-scientists and biostatisticians regarding the analysis of a medical research project is less than optimally efficient. Extreme consulting is a method of analysis in which both the physician and biostatistician jointly analyze a dataset in real time to avoid delays and communication problems. Our experience with this method has been positive.
