Mixed-methods study to develop extensions to the SPIRIT and CONSORT statements for factorial randomised trials: the Reporting Factorial Trials (RAFT) study

Uptake of the CONSORT and SPIRIT extensions will improve the conduct of factorial trials, as well as understanding and interpretation of such trials. By reporting on how these extensions were developed, we promote transparency of this process and share learning experiences to develop best practice when developing reporting guidelines.

Abstract

Uptake of the CONSORT and SPIRIT extensions will improve the conduct of factorial trials, as well as understanding and interpretation of such trials. By reporting on how these extensions were developed, we promote transparency of this process and share learning experiences to develop best practice when developing reporting guidelines.
