There is a growing need to add to the evidence base in wound care. Randomised controlled trials (RCTs) are one methodological approach for this. The CONSORT statement, which provides guidance on how to conduct a rigorous RCT, was updated earlier this year. Implementation of the Consort statement will clarify to the reader what exactly was done in the RCT, to whom and when. In this way, practitioners and health-care providers can determine its validity. The Consort statement has the potential to play a crucial role in influencing the quality of research and clinical practice, and so to improve wound care. The benefits of Consort 2010 are clear; the challenge is for clinicians and researchers to use it.
