摘要

Background

While there are increasing calls for Public and Patient Involvement and Engagement (PPIE) in methodology research, including the development of reporting guidelines, practices continue to emerge. This paper reports on the process, experiences, reflections, and recommendations of both the PPIE partners and other researchers participating in the development of (Standard Protocol Items: Recommendations for Interventional Trials (SPIRIT) and Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT)-Surrogate reporting guidelines.

Methods

Development of the SPIRIT- and CONSORT-Surrogate guidelines involved four phases: (1) literature reviews; (2) an e-Delphi survey; (3) a consensus meeting, and (4) knowledge translation. PPIE was integrated in Phases 2, 3 and 4. An encompassing budgeted PPIE strategy detailing involvement in all project phases was prepared and implemented by researchers and PPIE partners. Implementation included a learning workshop (attended by 19 PPIE partners) to build PPIE partners’ capacity and confidence to participate in the e-Delphi survey (Phase 2) and the invitation of four PPIE partners to the consensus meeting (Phase 3). Experiences and reflections of PPIE in the project, based on feedback surveys from PPIE partners participating in the project and reflective notes from meetings, were used to formulate recommendations.

Results

In total, 19 PPIE partners took part in the e-Delphi survey (Phase 2), four joined the consensus meeting (Phase 3), and consequently co-authored the guidelines and contributed to the development of an educational animation video (Phase 4). Partners felt that facilitators for involvement in Phase 2 included a learning workshop, financial compensation, support during e-Delphi survey participation (such as a glossary and help texts) and for Phase 3, the main facilitator was allowing partners to contribute first during the consensus meeting. The PPIE partners who joined the consensus meeting (Phase 3) presented the patient perspective; reminded researchers of why the project was important; helped with clarification of issues; corrected grammar; suggested strategies to disseminate and implement the extensions; and created humour. Reflecting on the involvement, both the PPIE partners and researchers felt it was valuable to the project.

Conclusions

Based on the experiences, we make six recommendations for integrating PPIE in projects to develop reporting guidelines: involve early; involve with a plan and layered approach; involve meaningfully in a genuine way; involve with support and in safe spaces; involve with reflection and feedback; and involve with a budget to compensate for time and effort.
