escepticemia 18
SKEPTICEMIA neologism derived from the contraction of skepticism and septicemia, coined by Pert Skrabanek and James McMcCormick in 1989; describes a current in favor of the application in health of scientific skepticism, of a rigorous nature since medical decisions directly affect the health of the population. It is based on critical thinking, built with empirical observations that are scientifically contrasted.
