Research Protocol

 

This protocol contains all elements from the SPIRIT statement and was generated using spiritR

 

#Create the lists by assigning values for each of the parameters in the code chunks below. Assigning values for these parameters will enable you to create an xml document to be uploaded to clinicaltrials.gov and also auto-populate some fields in your clinical trial protocol below.

# This will be easiest to complete by running ?create_ctxml() in the console so that you can see descriptions of the parameters to be included in this list in the viewer panel.
