Pragmatic definition

Pragmatic means something different to everyone you ask and there is no formal definition of a pragmatic trial. Often practical in implementation, few visits, less patient contact and burden, non-intrusive means of ascertaining events (EMR, death index, administrative records etc.)
Pragmatic in reference to trials means many things to many people
Pragmatic means that the research will be ‘problem’ led; fitting the methods to the solution of the problem, as is usually the focus of applied research. According to Johnson and Onwuegbuzie (2007, p. 125) pragmatism “is a well-developed and attractive philosophy for integrating perspectives and approaches”. Thus, mixed methods research can be considered as a research paradigm in its own right; the ‘third paradigm’ (Johnson & Onwuegbuzie, 2004). Therefore, the categorical distinction between qualitative and quantitative research then can simply be extended to position mixed methods research categorically between qualitative and quantitative methods.
