Résumé

In stepped-wedge cluster randomized trials (SW-CRTs), clusters are randomized not to treatment and control arms but to sequences dictating the times of crossing from control to intervention conditions. Randomization is an essential feature of this design but application of standard methods to promote and report on balance at baseline is not straightforward. We aimed to describe current methods of randomization and reporting of balance at baseline in SW-CRTs.
