Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5

Abstract

RCT’s has been recognised as the standard method for rationalising treatment outcomes in medical literature. However, many researchers are still unfamiliar with how to properly randomize the study, and it has been shown that there are limitations in studies due to inaccurate performance of the randomization, leading to errors in results, even though they published in indexed International journals. This review on randomization trials, help researchers to develop the skills for critically analysing RCT’s in terms of methodology, magnitude and precision of treatment.
