TLDR
Suggestions to improve recruitment included reducing participant burden, providing support for individuals who do not speak English, and forming collaborations with primary care to improve the identification of, and access to, potentially eligible participants.Abstract:
Background
Recruiting the required number of participants is vital to the success of clinical research and yet many studies fail to achieve their expected recruitment rate.

The aim of this study was to identify the factors that researchers perceive as influential in the recruitment of participants to clinically focused research.read more
