Overview
Key facts
Inappropriate selection of outcomes and outcome measures can lead to trial findings of little value to key stakeholders (such as patients) and heterogeneity in outcomes across trials, which makes data synthesis difficult. Issues arising with the collection of outcomes, such as missing data, can impact on the usefulness of a trial’s findings and inappropriate reporting of outcomes can lead to outcome reporting bias and misleading interpretation of a trial’s findings.
University of Birmingham's Selection, Collection and Reporting of Trial Outcomes programme will teach you more about this topic.
Programme Structure
Courses include:
- Distinguish between types of outcomes commonly collected in contemporary trials and summarize their key features, including modes of collection and impact on the design and conduct of a trial.
- Explain the fundamental principles and key considerations surrounding trial outcome selection, collection and reporting in different settings.
- Identify and support the most appropriate outcome(s) for different research questions.
- Critically appraise trial outcome selection, implementation and reporting/interpretation in medical research literature.
- Appraise existing strategies and, where appropriate, develop new approaches aimed at optimising trial outcome capture in different settings.
- Construct appropriate trial protocol content around outcome selection, justification and collection, relevant to a specific area of research.
