本文的目的是描述一个成功的研究小组的合作努力。管饲联盟小组由居住在四个不同地理位置的七名调查人员组成。其中一名成员担任该小组的首席研究员和主席；其他人是共同调查员。一名共同研究员在每个地点担任首席研究员，管理分包预算和科学问题。这种结构提高了预算管理、冲突管理和劳动分工的效率。这种方法进行研究的主要优点包括：(a)在相对较短的时间内研究了大量的受试者；(b)数据收集结构，允许比由一名调查员在一个机构收集的数据更广泛的概括；(c)直接复制和扩展复制的机制；(d)在调查人员之间最大限度地使用和分配资源。集团早期建立的机制有助于实现最大程度的沟通，解决潜在冲突，确保数据的可靠性，确保合作者的出版和展示权，并管理整体预算和分包合同。这个小组在八年的时间里保持完整，完成了所有提议的研究和其他相关研究，发表了大量论文，并继续发表这些努力的发现。
The purpose of this paper is to describe the collaborative efforts of one successful research group. The Tube Feed Consortium Group was composed of seven investigators who lived in four different geographic locations. One of the members served as principal investigator and chairman of the group; the others as coinvestigators. A coinvestigator served as principal investigator in each location, managing subcontracted budgets and scientific concerns. This structure promoted efficiency in budget management, conflict management, and division of labor. Major advantages to this approach to the conduct of research included (a) a large number of subjects studied in a relatively short time period; (b) a data collection structure, which permitted wider generalization than data collected in one institution by one investigator; (c) a mechanism for direct replication and replication with expansion; (d) maximum usage and distribution of resources between investigators. Mechanisms established early in the history of the group helped to achieve maximum communication, resolve potential conflicts, ensure reliability of data, ensure publication and presentation rights of collaborators, and manage the overall budget and subcontracts. The group remained intact for eight years, completed all the proposed studies plus other related studies, presented numerous papers, and continues to publish findings of these endeavors.
