Topic: Novel approaches to optimize the design and implementation of randomized clinical trials – a focus on bloodstream infections
Learning Objectives:
- Propose a novel outcome incorporating clinical efficacy and antimicrobial resistance for use in antibiotic minimization trials.
- Describe a nested randomized controlled trial evaluating a novel simplified consent process for clinical trials.
- Explain the use of inverse probability weighting in a clinical trial setting to account for non-adherence in a large non-inferiority clinical trial.
