Ch 1: Theory vs Practice

  • In physics there are two branches–Theoretical Physics and Applied Physics. A frequent quip between characters in Big Bang Theory was that Theoretical Physicists (Sheldon) look down on Applied Physicists.
  • Algorithms, Protocols, Clinical Pathways 
  • Outcome, Efficiency, and Satisfaction are three major measures of any Protocol
  • Practical Matters May Prevent Things from being done optimally; how to compromise
  • Sometimes small is bigger than big, but it works both positively and negatively
