Appendix A: References

The handbook uses chapter-level inline sources rather than a detached bibliography that separates a claim from its evidence. This page provides the durable book citation, license, source rules, and contribution routes.

References and Citations

Clinical, scientific, regulatory, and policy claims use inline hyperlinks at the point where they support the text. This approach supports:

  • Immediate verification of claims (click to view source)
  • Accessibility for screen readers and assistive technologies
  • Clear maintenance when a source, policy, or device record changes
  • Transparency (context visible at point of citation)

Example citation format: ([Author et al., Year](verified DOI URL))

A journal citation is accepted only when the first author, venue, DOI, design, population, and endpoint form a connected record. FDA status should link to the exact 510(k), De Novo, or PMA record. Society recommendations should link to the controlling guideline or policy rather than a press announcement when the primary document is available.

For the full set of book and chapter formats, use How to Cite This Handbook. When relying on a clinical claim, cite the original paper, regulator record, guideline, dataset, or policy whenever possible.
