Abstract

We have been asked to write a counter-view to appear alongside an interesting editorial discussing pragmatic trials, particularly in the setting of perioperative care, written by three well respected leaders in our field. We agree that there are common problems with the way randomised trials have been undertaken in the past, especially in anaesthesia and surgery. We also recognise that these problems undermine the value of research as a tool to improve patient care. We propose an alternative view of pragmatic randomised controlled trials in perioperative care and how future research might be improved.
