Beschreibungen/Notizen

• Glasziou et al narrate that much healthcare research is currently wasted because its findings are unusable. Published reports of intervention trials often focus on the results and fail to describe interventions adequately. For example, a review of 80 studies selected for the journal Evidence Based Medicine as both valid and important for clinical practice found that clinicians could replicate the intervention in only half the studies. Interventions may be used incorrectly or not at all if there is inadequate detail in the trial protocol, on the conduct of the trial, in systematic reviews and guidelines, and finally during implementation. Here, they offer methods on improving healthcare interventions from trial to practice.
