User road testing of a draft version of SQUIRE 2.0

"Our findings show that writing scholarly healthcare improvement work requires a specific knowledge base, and this knowledge is not universally held. We now know some of the specific gaps that should be addressed to help SQUIRE 2.0 reach its goal of improving the reporting of improvement work. The findings should be helpful not just for the development of SQUIRE 2.0 but also in the education of the next generation, for whom exposure to improvement work is now becoming standard."

"The original SQUIRE Guidelines help with planning healthcare improvement work, but are perceived as complicated and unclear during writing. Key goals of the revision will be to clarify items where conflict was identified and outline the key components necessary for complete reporting of improvement work."
