PRECIS-2 used as an implementation science tool for global environmental health: A cross-sectional evaluation of the Ecolectivos study protocol to reduce burning of household plastic waste in rural Guatemala.

Background: Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate the efficacy of an intervention remain underutilized in community-based environmental health research. RCTs that use a pragmatic design emphasize the effectiveness of interventions in complex, real world settings. Pragmatic trials may be especially relevant when community-based interventions address social and environmental determinants that threaten health equity.
