Dissertação Acknowledgements • APTA - PTJ • Prof Chris Maher • Dr Mark Elkins • Dr Christine Lin • Prof Rebecca Craik
Why ISPJE is recommending prospective clinical trial registration? • ISMJE´s 2004 recommendations • PT journals are struggling to convince authors to register their trials • Sometimes authors, journal reviewers and even journal editors do not fully understand why prospective CT registration should be done • Evidence about CT registration in PT trials • PTJ´s implementation of prospective CT registration
Why ISPJE is recommending prospective clinical trial registration? • PT journals are able to better educate their readers, authors and reviewers about the importance of CT registration by: • Endorsing ISPJE recommendations of CT registration • Implementing prospective CT registration as soon as possible • Publishing a joint editorial in the last issue of 2012 or first issue of 2013
Agenda • Clinical trial registration in physiotherapy trials • Dr Mark Elkins, editor, Journal of Physiotherapy • Implementing the policy of mandatory prospective trial registration • Professor Rebecca Craik, Editor in Chief, Physical Therapy • Summing up • Dr Leonardo Costa, chair person of the ISPJE
