Introduzione
The study protocol plays a crucial role in research success, outlining standardized procedures for effective communication among stakeholders.
Unlike clinical trials, real-world evidence studies lack interventions, relying on patient data from routine clinical care.
Developing non-interventional study protocols requires specific considerations to ensure accuracy and relevance.
The aim of the course is to provide an overview of the standards and definitions needed for writing and publishing an observational study protocol.
