Cluster-Randomized Trial Comparing Ambulatory Decision Support Tools to Improve Heart Failure Care.

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2023
BACKGROUND Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonists (MRA) are under-prescribed for patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF). OBJECTIVE To compare effectiveness of two automated, electronic health record (EHR)-embedded tools vs ...

Cluster Randomized Trials

JAMA, 2015
Sometimes a new treatment is best introduced to an entire group of patients rather than to individual patients. Examples include when the new approach requires procedures be followed by multiple members of a health care team or when the new technique is applied to the environment of care (eg, a method for cleaning a hospital room before it is known ...

Cluster-randomized trials

Palliative Medicine, 2002
Cluster-randomized trials represent an important experimental design, supplementing ordinary randomized clinical trials. They are particularly relevant when evaluating interventions at the level of clinic, hospital, district or region. They are necessary when it is not feasible to randomize individual patients, and desirable when there may be ...

Cluster randomized controlled trials

Journal of Evaluation in Clinical Practice, 2005
AbstractCluster randomized controlled trial (RCT), in which groups or clusters of individuals rather than individuals themselves are randomized, are increasingly common. Indeed, for the evaluation of certain types of intervention (such as those used in health promotion and educational interventions) a cluster randomized trial is virtually the only ...

Cluster-Randomized Trials

2020
In some situations, it is preferable or necessary not to randomize individual patients but groups of patients, for example clinics, care homes, or households. These groups are commonly denoted as “clusters”. Two approaches for the analysis of cluster-randomized trials can be distinguished, and the chosen method has to be adequately incorporated in ...

Cluster Randomized Trials

AAP Grand Rounds, 2011
Over the last century, the randomized clinical trial has become the gold standard for interventional studies. Typically individuals are randomly assigned to an experimental group or a control group. What if it was impractical or unethical to randomize individuals to a treatment group? This is where the cluster randomized trial design comes in.

Balance in cluster randomized trials

Statistics in Medicine, 2001
This paper explores the role of balancing covariates between treatment groups in the design of cluster randomized trials. General expressions are obtained for two criteria to evaluate designs for parallel group studies with two treatments. The first is the variance of the estimated treatment effect and the second is the extent to which the estimated ...
