  • Title: Therapeutic perspective.
    Author: SCHOLTZ JR, WILLIAMSON C.
    Journal: Calif Med; 1951 Mar; 74(3):193-4. PubMed ID: 14812355.
    Abstract:
    Unless proper perspective is maintained in medical therapeutics, a physician in his earnest desire to cure disease may often use measures which may ultimately cause more damage than the disease being treated.In order to avoid loss of perspective, it is necessary to balance the known consequences of the disease against the expected benefits of the treatment minus the known hazards of the treatment.
