Successful strategies for practice-based recruitment of racial and ethnic minority pregnant women in a randomized controlled trial: the IDEAS for a healthy baby study.
The authors used strategies grounded in a health equity framework to address barriers to recruitment and retention in three domains: preparation, process, and patient-centeredness in the IDEAS (Information, Description, Education, Assistance, and Support) for a Healthy Baby study. They achieved higher recruitment (87.1 %) and retention rates (97.3 %) than anticipated, concluding that others seeking to recruit racial and ethnic minority pregnant women in similar settings may find the preparation, process, and patient-centered strategies used in this study applicable for their own studies.
