| equipoise |
a state of uncertainty regarding whether alternative health care interventions will confer more favorable outcomes, including balance of benefits and harms. Under the principle of equipoise, a patient should be enrolled in a randomized contolled trial only if there is substantial uncertainty, (an expectation for equal likelihood) about which intervention will benefit the patient most.
