Abstract
A collateral benefit of being in a research-active clinical unit
is that there is evidence that better care is delivered. The most
dramatic data to date demonstrate that in cardiology, research-
active cardiology departments in community and
university hospitals deliver better survival than those units
that do not enroll people in clinical trials.
