Use the RDPE Guidance & Checklist as a practical companion to your existing processes—not as an extra form to complete.
At project start: Review the checklist as a team when you are defining your research questions, partners, and timelines. Note which items are already in place and where changes are needed.
At key decision points: Revisit the relevant phase (e.g., execution before recruitment launch; monitoring before interim analyses; dissemination when preparing HTA or payer materials). Capture what you did, what you could not do, and why.
Across projects: Compare responses over time to see where engagement is improving and where additional support, training, or resources may be needed.
