Abstract
Background: In low- and middle-income countries, few patients receive organized rehabilitation after stroke, yet the burden of chronic diseases such as stroke is increasing in these countries. Affordable models of effective rehabilitation could have a major impact. The ATTEND trial is evaluating a family-led caregiver delivered rehabilitation program after stroke. Objective: To publish the detailed statistical analysis plan for the ATTEND trial prior to trial unblinding. Methods: Based upon the published registration and protocol, the blinded steering committee and management team, led by the trial statistician, have developed a statistical analysis plan. The plan has been informed by the chosen outcome measures, the data collection forms and knowledge of key baseline data. Results: The resulting statistical analysis plan is consistent with best practice and will allow open and transparent reporting. Conclusions: Publication of the trial statistical analysis plan reduces potential bias in trial reporting, and clearly outlines pre-specified analyses.
