A protocol paper outlines the exact steps, timeline, and statistical methods you will follow. Publishing a protocol adds transparency, allows for early peer review of your methods, and prevents duplication of effort by other researchers.
We help draft rigorous protocol manuscripts suitable for journals like BMJ Open, JMIR Research Protocols, and assist with registration on PROSPERO or ClinicalTrials.gov.
Draft My ProtocolEstablish your priority over a specific research question.
Gain a citable paper before your data is even collected.
Refine your methodology through rigorous pre-peer review.
Demonstrate that methods weren't manipulated to fit data.
Every study design has a dedicated reporting guideline. Our experts are trained across all of them.
Randomised controlled trial protocols covering objectives, PICO, randomisation, blinding, outcomes, and statistical analysis plan.
Pre-registered review protocols documenting search strategy, eligibility criteria, data extraction, and planned statistical analyses.
Cohort, case-control, and cross-sectional study protocols following STROBE reporting standards with statistical analysis plans.
Index test and reference standard definitions, participant criteria, and statistical plan for sensitivity/specificity studies.
Grounded theory, phenomenology, thematic analysis, or framework analysis protocols with sampling strategy and data saturation plan.
Sequential, concurrent, or transformative mixed-methods design protocols integrating qualitative and quantitative phases.
Protocol papers delivered in 7–14 days fast enough to meet trial registration and grant submission deadlines.
Power calculations using G*Power, nQuery, or R documented with assumptions and citations, ready for peer review.
We regularly publish in BMJ Open, Trials, PLOS ONE, Systematic Reviews journals dedicated to protocol papers.
ClinicalTrials.gov, CTRI, ISRCTN, ANZCTR we register your trial and provide the registration number for the paper.
