Observational data sets offer many potential advantages for medical research including their low cost, large size and generalisability. Because they are collected for clinical care and health care operations purposes, observational data sets have some limitations that must be considered in order to perform useful analyses. Sensible use of observational data sets can yield valuable insights, particularly when clinical trials are impractical.

Synchronous Online

In this paper, the authors discuss a data mining course that was offered for a cohort of health care professionals employed by a hospital consortium as an elective in a synchronous online MBA program. The students learned to use data mining to analyze data on two platforms, Enterprise Miner, SAS (2008) and XLMiner (an EXCEL add-in). The final assignment for the semester was for the students to analyze a data set from their place of employment. This paper describes the projects and resulting benefits to the companies for which the students worked.
