Scaling up Quality Improvement for Surgical Teams (QIST) – avoiding surgical site infection and anaemia at the time of surgery: protocol for a cluster randomised controlled trial

This complex project with multiple stakeholders across a large geographical area will be managed by experienced senior-level project leaders with a proven track record in advanced project management. The team should ensure effective project governance and communications.Trial registrationISRCTN,ISRCTN11085475. Prospectively registered on 15 February 2018.
