Hello, I'm a bit confused about cohort study design. I was taught that it's an observational study, no intervention/treatment. So if a group of physicians prescribe an approved med that is part of routine care/standard of care to 1 group of patients and follow them for x number of months, does this qualify as an observational cohort study?

My colleague defines a cohort study as a study with 1 intervention and no randomization. While I agree with no randomization, I don't think an intervention is part of a cohort study design. How do physicians then conduct an observational cohort study if they wanna study their patients who they prescribe approved drugs that are part of standard of care? I'm so confused and either these nuances weren't taught in school or i missed them somehow.
