In Reply Drs Saugel and Reuter challenge the description of the OPTIMISE trial as a pragmatic trial. As applied to clinical trials, the term pragmatic has a particular meaning. Pragmatic trials are designed to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a treatment in the context of routine clinical practice.1 This distinguishes them from explanatory trials, which are designed to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment under ideal conditions.

Abstract

In Reply Drs Saugel and Reuter challenge the description of the OPTIMISE trial as a pragmatic trial. As applied to clinical trials, the term pragmatic has a particular meaning. Pragmatic trials are designed to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of a treatment in the context of routine clinical practice.1 This distinguishes them from explanatory trials, which are designed to evaluate the efficacy of a treatment under ideal conditions.
