El uso y la enseñanza del modelo PICO están muy extendidos en el ámbito de la atención sanitaria basada en la evidencia para formular preguntas y estrategias de búsqueda y para caracterizar estudios o metanálisis clínicos. PICO son las siglas en inglés de cuatro posibles componentes de una pregunta de investigación: paciente, población o problema; intervención; comparación; desenlace (outcome).

Para saber más sobre el uso del modelo PICO, puede consultar el Manual Cochrane.

Methods

Allocation: centralised sequence generation with table of random numbers or computer‐generated code, stratified by severity of illness, sequence concealed till interventions assigned.
Blinding: those recruiting and assigning participants, those assessing outcomes, all blind to allocated group, blinding tested.
Duration: minimum of 52 weeks.

Participants

Diagnosis: schizophrenia, if operational criteria used these should be in the context of routine care.
N = 300*.
Age: adults.
Sex: men and women.
Setting: anywhere dance therapy is available for this group.

Interventions

1. Dance therapy: the nature and frequency of this approach should be clearly described. N = 150.
2. Routine therapy. N = 150. This also should be clearly described.

Outcomes

Quality of life: healthy days,** SF‐36***.
Service outcomes: days in hospital, time attending psychiatric outpatient clinic.
Satisfaction with care: patients/carers.
Global state: CGI.***
Mental state: CGI.
Social functioning: to include occupational status.
Adverse effects: including mortality.
Economic data.

Notes

* size of study to detect a 10% difference in improvement with 80% certainty.

** Primary outcome.

*** If scales are used to measure outcome then there should be binary cut off points, defined before study starts, of clinically important improvement.

CGI: Clinical Global Impression

*The basis for the assumed risk (e.g. the median control group risk across studies) is provided in footnotes. The corresponding risk (and its 95% confidence interval) is based on the assumed risk in the comparison group and the relative effect of the intervention (and its 95% CI).
CI: Confidence interval; RR: Risk ratio;

GRADE Working Group grades of evidence
High quality: Further research is very unlikely to change our confidence in the estimate of effect.
Moderate quality: Further research is likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and may change the estimate.
Low quality: Further research is very likely to have an important impact on our confidence in the estimate of effect and is likely to change the estimate.
Very low quality: We are very uncertain about the estimate.

1 Risk of bias: rated‐'serious': Randomised in blocks, no details reported.
2 Risk of bias: rated‐'serious': Single blind, but not tested.
3 Risk of bias: rated‐'serious': Over 40% of the participants were lost to follow‐up in control group
