Abstract
The Author reviews the basic principles -
such as ethics, quality effectiveness and
cost, equity- that should inform screening
programmes. The need for rigorous application
of the epidemiological method for
evaluating screening interventions is stressed
and the various levels of evidence that
can be produced by different research approaches
are illustrated. This procedure is
applied to the various screening programmes
that have been proposed for maternal
and child health, and evidence-based guidelines
are provided on this bases.
