<p>The SRQR is a list of 21 items that we consider essential for complete, transparent reporting of qualitative research (see&nbsp;<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="javascript:showSlideShowByImageID('T1-21', '00001888-201409000-00021');">Table 1</a>). As explained above, we developed these items through a rigorous synthesis of prior recommendations and concepts from published sources (see&nbsp;<a href="javascript:void(0)" onclick="javascript:showSlideShowByImageID('T2-21', '00001888-201409000-00021');">Table 2</a>; see also Supplemental Digital Appendix 1, found at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218');return false">https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218</a>) and expert review. These 21 items provide a framework and recommendations for reporting qualitative studies. Given the wide range of qualitative approaches and methodologies, we attempted to select items with broad relevance.</p><p>The SRQR includes the article&rsquo;s title and abstract (items 1 and 2); problem formulation and research question (items 3 and 4); research design and methods of data collection and analysis (items 5 through 15); results, interpretation, discussion, and integration (items 16 through 19); and other information (items 20 and 21). Supplemental Digital Appendix 2, found at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218" onclick="javascript:window.open('https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218');return false">https://links.lww.com/ACADMED/A218</a>, contains a detailed explanation of each item, along with examples from recently published qualitative studies. Below, we briefly describe the standards, with a particular focus on those unique to qualitative research.</p>
