SPIRIT guidelines

The SPIRIT guidelines are a set of standards designed to improve the quality of clinical trial protocols. They help ensure that studies are well-planned, transparent, and ethically conducted by providing a clear framework for researchers to describe their study’s objectives, methods, and procedures. This allows for better planning, reduces bias, and makes it easier for others to understand and evaluate the research. Ultimately, SPIRIT aims to increase the reliability and reproducibility of clinical trials, helping to produce trustworthy evidence about healthcare interventions.
