Abstract
All ACGME-accredited orthopedic residency programs require residents to participate in research during their training. The levels of evidence adopted for clinical research validate the randomized clinical trial (RCT) as the gold (Level 1) standard. While many residents aspire to conduct or be involved in an RCT during their orthopedic training, I would like to describe my experience as an orthopedic surgery resident designing and running an RCT.
