ABSTRACT

Most prescribing indications in homoeopathy are derived from clinical experience. There is a need to revise and update them. A new method known as systematic outcome correlation, which correlates outcome as measured by a standard clinical assessment, with prescription, is described. The method uses information technology and the Read clinical classification. Preliminary results in rheumathoid arthritis are presented. The method and results are critically examined with recommendations for future developments
