阶梯整群随机试验 Stepped Wedge Cluster Randomized Trials

Zhongguo cuzhong zazhi, 2023
阶梯整群随机试验（stepped wedge cluster randomized trial，SW-CRT）是一种新型的研究设计，通常用于评价整群的服务或政策干预效果。该设计不需要单独设立对照，在设计初始阶段，所有整群均不暴露于干预，随后每一个观察期随机一组整群接受干预，进入干预组，直到所有整群均接受干预。本文从SW-CRT的基本原理、类别、研究设计、样本量计算、统计学方法和报告规范等方面进行介绍，为开展SW-CRT研究提供参考。 Abstract: The stepped wedge ...

Stepped-wedge cluster randomised trials: where, when and why? [PDF]

Trials, 2015
The stepped wedge (SW) cluster randomised trial (CRT) design is being utilised at increasing pace. However, little is known about the standard of reporting of such trials, or how useful the design has proven to be in hindsight. Moreover, much debate exists around when the design should be preferred to the more classical parallel group (PG) CRT.
