Considerations for evaluating pragmatic design elements in digital health intervention trials: the case of Keep It Up! 3.0
Application of both the PRECIS-2 and PRECIS-2-PS tools validated the pragmatic design of KIU! 3.0 as originally designed and after modifications during trial implementation. Our findings highlight instances where one tool may be more suitable than the other to assess the pragmatic-explanatory continuum for emerging digital health interventions delivered in diverse settings and with different implementation strategies.
