Medical Writing
by redsaf
Medical is the science of healing, and it is practiced by physicians, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, allied health professionals and lay people. Medical includes many clinical subspecialties such as dermatology, endocrinology, gastroenterology, hematology, oncology, obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, renal medicine and pathology. It also includes many laboratory disciplines such as chemistry, immunology, microbiology and pharmacology.
The practice of medicine, as a scientific and social science, is governed by ethical principles. These are meant to ensure that the integrity of medical research and the safety of the patients involved in it are not compromised by financial gain, career advancement or any other personal consideration. A code of conduct for physicians is regulated by the licensing authority in each country and may include standards such as professional ethics, integrity, informed consent, patient confidentiality, reporting biases and conflicts of interest.
Historically, the field of medicine has been subject to rapid and dramatic change. The transition to modern scientific biomedical research (where results are testable and reproducible) began with the development of a smallpox vaccine by Edward Jenner in the 18th century, and continued through advances such as those by Robert Koch in the 19th century, which led to the development of antibiotics.
In addition to specialized treatment, the medical field has a number of other areas of focus including medical education, public health and healthcare policy. It is a highly diverse field and its practitioners must be well trained across a range of clinical specialties to be competent in their chosen area.
Medical writing is one of the fastest-growing segments of the written word. It is used to convey information about diseases, illnesses, injuries, and treatments in a way that is understandable by non-specialist readers. It is often written for a variety of purposes, from academic research to marketing materials for pharmaceutical products. The tone and style of medical writing must be unbiased, informative, and accurate.
The clarity of medical writing is a critical factor in the success of any article. This means that writers must avoid using technical terminology that will alienate non-specialists and should use clear explanations and examples to facilitate understanding. The layout and organization of an article is important as well; a poorly structured article will be difficult to read and may confuse the reader. Finally, medical writers should always consider whether their writing could be perceived as being biased or offensive. Articles that contain controversial topics or insult anyone can quickly lose credibility and readership. Attempting to use humor in medical writing should be avoided unless it is extremely skillful, as it generally fails to communicate the intended message and is generally misinterpreted by readers. It is also best to stick with a factual and neutral tone, especially when discussing sensitive issues such as the effects of smoking or terrorism. This will help maintain the integrity of the article and increase its usefulness. It will also reduce the risk of lawsuits resulting from unintentional or unconscious biases by the author.
