Inaccuracies in the Second Season of the Medical Drama, House, MDMcIndoo, Julie, Mehta, Pooja, Murthy, Manasa January 2010 (has links)
Class of 2010 Abstract / OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this project was to analyze the accuracy of season two, episodes 13-‐24 of the popular medical drama, House, MD.
METHODS: This study was a descriptive retrospective analysis of the second half of season two of House, MD. The accuracy of the presenting signs and symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment in each episode was rated on a scale of one to four. A rating of one described a correct and usual representation. A rating of two described a correct but somewhat unusual representation. A rating of three described a correct but extremely unusual representation. A rating of four described an incorrect representation. Each researcher independently rated the episodes, and then a collaborative rating was agreed upon by all researchers.
RESULTS: Results of the ANOVA test demonstrated a statistically significant difference between the three dependent variables
(p=0.003). The Tukey post-‐hoc test confirmed a significant difference between the accuracy of treatment when compared with signs and symptoms (p=0.003), and with diagnosis (p=0.022). The average rating for the treatment variable was 1.50 (±0.707), whereas the average ratings for the signs and symptoms and diagnosis variables were 2.80 (±0.919) and 2.50 (±0.707), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: The treatments presented in the last twelve episodes of season two of House, MD were more accurate than both the presenting signs and symptoms and the diagnosis.

Inaccuracies in the Second Season of the Medical Drama, House, MDBall, Nicole, Nguyen, Tracy, Walenga, Annie January 2009 (has links)
Class of 2009 Abstract / OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this work was to quantify the magnitude of factual inaccuracies in the first twelve episodes of the second season of the medical drama, House, MD.
METHODS: This study was a descriptive retrospective evaluation of the first twelve episodes in the second season of the popular television show, House, MD. The degree of accuracy of the signs and symptoms (presentation), diagnosis, and treatment for the one major disease portrayed in each show was rated on a scale of one to four. Each researcher evaluated these ratings independently, and after subsequent collaborative discussion, a combined rating was determined for all the data.
RESULTS: Both a three-way ANOVA and Kruskal-Wallis data analyses found significance among the data. The Tukey HSD post hoc test revealed a significant difference between the accuracy of signs and symptoms to treatment variables (p = 0.045). Analysis by the Mann-Whitney U test also determined that a significant difference was evident between the accuracy of signs and symptoms when compared with treatment (p = 0.022).
CONCLUSIONS: The treatments presented in the twelve episodes evaluated were determined to be more accurate than the show's description of the patient's presenting signs and symptoms.

Class of 2012 Abstract / Specific Aims: This study was performed to assess the accuracy of the presenting signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and treatments depicted in episodes one through twelve of the fifth season of House, MD.
Methods: This study was a descriptive, retrospective evaluation of the accuracy of the first twelve episodes of the fifth season of House, MD. Dependent variables in this study were presenting signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and treatment of the final diagnosis for the primary patient case. A rating of one to four was assigned to each variable, with one being most accurate and four being inaccurate. Statistical analysis consisted of ANOVA and Tukey HSD post-hoc test
Main Results: The signs and symptoms had a mean of 2.42 ± 0.669 (95% CI 1.99 to 2.84). The diagnostic tests had a mean of 2.42 ± 1.084 (95% CI 1.73 to 3.11). The treatment had a mean of 1.42 ± 0.9 (95% CI 0.84 to 1.99). ANOVA showed a statistically significant difference among the accuracy ratings of the groups (p = 0.013). Tukey HSD did not show a significant difference between the accuracy of the signs and symptoms and diagnostic tests (p = 1). The test did reveal a statistically significant difference between accuracy of treatment and both the signs and symptoms (p = 0.027) and diagnostic tests (p = 0.027).
Conclusions: The treatments shown in House, MD, season five, episodes one through twelve are significantly more accurate than both the diagnostic tests and the presenting signs and symptoms.

Evaluation of Recommendations made on The Dr. Oz Show from the first 30 episodes of season 5Truong, Annie, Dao, Quyen January 2017 (has links)
Class of 2017 Abstract / Objectives: To assess the clinical evidence that supports recommendations made on The Dr. Oz Show
Methods: This descriptive, retrospective study determined if recommendations made during the first 30 episodes from season 5 of The Dr. Oz Show were supported, not supported, or no literature evidence could be found. The 30 episodes chosen were aired between 4/25/2014 and 7/29/2014. The literature evaluated was from among three databases: PubMed, Embase and Natural Medicines. A total of 82 specific recommendations were assessed. The recommendations included those concerning medications, dietary supplements, medical devices, food and cosmetic products. Two investigators independently researched the literature evidence for each recommendation using a point-grading system. A consensus of agreement was reached for the evaluation of the accuracy for each recommendation.
Results: A total of 77 recommendations from among the 30 chosen episodes met inclusion criteria and were therefore analyzed. Among the 77 analyzed recommendations, 30 (38.9%) of them were supported by evidence, 6 (7.7%) of them were not supported by evidence and 41 (53.4%) of them had no evidence found.
Conclusions: Overall, less than half of the recommendations in the first 30 episodes of season 5 on The Dr. Oz Show were supported by evidence.

Inaccuracies in the Second Half of the Third Season of the Medical Drama, House, MDBlackburn, Shanelle, Kuharevicz, Ann, Norcross, Andrea January 2011 (has links)
Class of 2011 Abstract / OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the degree of accuracy of the information relevant to signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures used to establish the final diagnosis, and appropriateness of treatment for the last 12 episodes of the 3rd season of the television show, House, MD.
METHODS: Twelve episodes were reviewed by three evaluators and the patient’s signs and symptoms, the diagnostic procedures used, and the treatment of the final diagnosis for each episode were recorded and rated based on accuracy. After each evaluator had rated each variable in each episode independently, the ratings were compared and a final rating for each variable was determined.
RESULTS: The overall mean rating for signs and symptoms was 2.46. The overall mean rating for diagnostic procedures was 2.38. The overall mean rating for treatment was 1.77. All of these ratings would correlate to a correct, but somewhat unusual presentation. The ANOVA analysis found no statistically significant difference between groups (p=0.078).
CONCLUSION: The signs and symptoms, diagnostic procedures, and treatments in the episodes of the second half of season three of House, MD were all portrayed in a manner that was accurate, but with a somewhat unusual presentation.
