Establishing a Framework for Pragmatic Trial Operations (PTOps): A Learning Health System Playbook

This dataset/document outlines the Pragmatic Trial Operations (PTOps) framework, a Learning Health System (LHS) playbook developed by the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW) Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR) in partnership with UW Health and Marshfield Clinic. The PTOps framework is designed to bridge the gap between clinical innovation and operational reality by "learning from what we do and doing what we learn". It utilizes rapid Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycles to integrate research-grade analytics into operationally driven pilots, ensuring that clinical interventions align with strategic health system priorities.

Abstract

This dataset/document outlines the Pragmatic Trial Operations (PTOps) framework, a Learning Health System (LHS) playbook developed by the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW) Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR) in partnership with UW Health and Marshfield Clinic. The PTOps framework is designed to bridge the gap between clinical innovation and operational reality by "learning from what we do and doing what we learn". It utilizes rapid Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) cycles to integrate research-grade analytics into operationally driven pilots, ensuring that clinical interventions align with strategic health system priorities.
