empiric risk  

Definición

  • Empiric risk refers to the chance that a particular event or disease will occur in a person, family, or population, based on experience or observation (empeira = experience), as opposed to predicting risk based on theoretical considerations or conjecture. For example, the empiric risk can be calculated for relatives of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs) sufferers based on observed population statistics.
