“…Two systematic reviews, each with a prospectively registered protocol, were conducted by separate groups who had each set out to develop a COS for use in determining the overall success of treatment for a child born with gastroschisis. The first of these reviews was a broad, scoping review, including all comparative study designs,7 while the second focused solely on randomised controlled trials and systematic reviews 8. Outcomes identified from the systematic reviews were assessed by the SMG and mapped to unique terms.…”

Objective Outcome reporting heterogeneity impedes identification of gold standard treatments for children born with gastroschisis. Use of core outcome sets (COSs) in research reduces outcome reporting heterogeneity and ensures that studies are relevant to patients. The aim of this study was to develop a gastroschisis COS. Design and setting Systematic reviews and stakeholder nomination were used to identify candidate outcomes that were subsequently prioritised by key stakeholders in a three-phase online Delphi process and face-to-face consensus meeting using a 9-point Likert scale. In phases two and three of the Delphi process, participants were shown graphical and numerical representations of their own, and all panels scores for each outcome respectively and asked to review their previous score in light of this information. Outcomes were carried forward to the consensus meeting if prioritised by two or three stakeholder panels in the third phase of the Delphi process. The COS was formed from outcomes where ≥70% of consensus meeting participants scored the outcome 7-9 and <15% of participants scored it 1-3. results 71 participants (84%) completed all phases of the Delphi process, during which 87 outcomes were assessed. Eight outcomes, mortality, sepsis, growth, number of operations, severe gastrointestinal complication, time on parenteral nutrition, liver disease and quality of life for the child, met criteria for inclusion in the COS. Conclusions Eight outcomes have been included in the gastroschisis COS as a result of their importance to key stakeholders. Implementing use of the COS will increase the potential for identification of gold standard treatments for the management of children born with gastroschisis.

“…Twenty systematic reviews characterising the inconsistency in outcome reporting across a broad range of relevant healthcare conditions were identified (Table S2). 3,11,[19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35] Seventeen systematic reviews (85%) extracted and mapped outcome reporting across included studies, three (15%) mapped predefined outcomes across included studies, and two (10%) investigated outcome reporting bias. 36 The scope was clearly stated in a majority of systematic reviews (n = 12; 60%).…”
