iCompare is a clinical trial which lengthens the shifts of first-year medical residents at about 190 teaching hospitals from 16 hours to as many as 28 hours.[1] The trial sought to determine how increased work by physicians affected patient care and outcomes.[1]
The study began in July 2015.[2] Johns Hopkins University is leading the trial.[3]
In November 2015 Public Citizen asked the Office for Human Research Protections to investigate the trial for unethical practices.[4]
