Practical trials in medical education: linking theory, practice and decision making

ConclusionsPractical trials in medical education may contribute to bridge the gap between education theory and practice and aid decision makers in making evidence‐based choices and priorities. Conducting practical trials is not without challenges and rigorous design and methods must be applied. Of concern is that the practical focus may lead to failure to include a sound theoretical basis in the research questions and the interventions studied, and that authors fail to obtain informed consent from their participants.
