Ensuring representativeness in clinical trials is key to inclusive, generalisable research. The Equity Audit Tool promotes equity by comparing participant demographics to national population distributions, identifying underserved groups. This helps researchers address recruitment biases, improve trial planning, and ensure findings benefit the broader population.
The link for the prototype for the intended use of the equity audit tool in a typical research project is attached as a link.
