Word of the day: Iatrogenic
Induced in a patient by a physician's activity, manner, or therapy.
An example of Iatrogenic in a sentence would be -
"A common concern among physicians is that asking about the presence of self-injury will have an iatrogenic effect by giving individuals the idea to engage in such behavior when they would otherwise not have thought to do so." (This concern has been proven invalid by recent research)
