The NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory is partnering with AcademyHealth to offer a full-day pre-conference workshop at the 2022 Annual Research Meeting in Washington, DC. The workshop, “Essentials of Embedded Pragmatic Clinical Trials (ePCTs)”, will provide an introduction to investigative opportunities for embedded healthcare systems research, along with strategies for conducting clinical trials that provide real-world evidence necessary to inform both practice and policy.
The workshop will include firsthand ePCT experiences and case studies from the NIH Pragmatic Trials Collaboratory. Speakers will include program officers and senior staff from NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices and senior investigators from the NIH Collaboratory Trials and the Coordinating Center.
The learning objectives of the workshop include:
- To clarify the definition of ePCTs and explain their utility
- To introduce attendees to the unique characteristics and challenges of designing, conducting, and implementing ePCTs within diverse healthcare systems
- To increase the capacity of health services researchers to address important clinical questions with ePCTs
