Reporting Guidelines
30/08/2016
CONSORT for Stepped Wedge Trials
• No tailored reporting guidelines at present
• Suggest following CONSORT 2010 extension to CRTs
– Campbell e.a. (2012) Consort 2010 statement: extension to
cluster randomised trials. BMJ 2012;345:e5661
• CONSORT extension to stepped wedge trials currently in
development
– Hemming e.a. CONSORT extension to stepped wedge cluster
randomised controlled trials. Equator Network. Protocol July
2014
• For preliminary recommendations, see:
– Hemming K, Haines T, Chilton PJ, Girling A, Lilford R. (2015)
The stepped wedge cluster randomised trial: rationale, design,
analysis, and reporting. BMJ 6;350:h391

Preliminary reporting recommendations
Preliminary reporting recommendations
• Trial design
– Definition of the cluster
– Cluster size distinguished from cluster size per observation
period
– Length of the steps (observation periods)
– Number of clusters randomised at each step
– Cohort (repeated measures on individuals), cross-sectional
design (different individuals), or mixture (open cohort)
– Schematic representation of the trial design
4
Preliminary reporting recommendations
• Sample size justification
– Allowance for clustering
– Allowance for the number of steps
– Allowance for any repeated measures on individuals
– Clear reference to the methods used

Preliminary reporting recommendations
Hemming K, Haines T, Chilton PJ, Girling A, Lilford R. (2015) The stepped wedge
cluster randomised trial: rationale, design, analysis, and reporting. BMJ 6;350:h391
Preliminary reporting recommendations
• Analysis
– Allowance for clustering
– Allowance for time effects
– Allowance for repeated measurements
7
Preliminary reporting recommendations
• Results
– Characteristics of study population reported by those exposed
and unexposed to the intervention
– Time adjusted treatment effect should be reported and
interpreted as the unbiased estimate of the treatment effect
– Schematic representation of the study design
