Risk acceptance criteria and their development.
The development of risk acceptance and risk mitigation evaluation criteria in various contexts is reviewed. Past and present attempts to derive such criteria for use by decision-makers on public hazards are noted. It is intended to provide a structured presentation of the generic approaches that have evolved for the development of these criteria in order to establish a foundation for their consideration as elements of potential management information systems that would support risk-based medical decision making--that is, potential medical risk management systems.
