abstract: 'Background: Researchers have frequently encountered difficulties in the
recruitment and retention of minorities resulting in their
under-representation in clinical trials. This report describes the
successful strategies of recruitment and retention of African Americans
and Latinos in a randomized clinical trial to reduce smoking, depression
and intimate partner violence during pregnancy. Socio-demographic
characteristics and risk profiles of retained vs. non-retained women and
lost to follow-up vs. dropped-out women are presented. In addition,
subgroups of pregnant women who are less ( more) likely to be retained
are identified.
Methods: Pregnant African American women and Latinas who were
Washington, DC residents, aged 18 years or more, and of 28 weeks
gestational age or less were recruited at six prenatal care clinics.
Potentially eligible women were screened for socio-demographic
eligibility and the presence of the selected behavioral and
psychological risks using an Audio Computer-Assisted Self-Interview.
Eligible women who consented to participate completed a baseline
telephone evaluation after which they were enrolled in the study and
randomly assigned to either the intervention or the usual care group.
Results: Of the 1,398 eligible women, 1,191 (85\%) agreed to participate
in the study. Of the 1,191 women agreeing to participate, 1,070
completed the baseline evaluation and were enrolled in the study and
randomized, for a recruitment rate of 90\%. Of those enrolled, 1,044
were African American women. A total of 849 women completed the study,
for a retention rate of 79\%. Five percent dropped out and 12\% were
lost-to-follow up. Women retained in the study and those not retained
were not statistically different with regard to socio-demographic
characteristics and the targeted risks. Retention strategies included
financial and other incentives, regular updates of contact information
which was tracked and monitored by a computerized data management system
available to all project staff, and attention to cultural competence
with implementation of study procedures by appropriately selected,
trained, and supervised staff. Single, less educated, alcohol and drug
users, non-working, and non-WIC women represent minority women with
expected low retention rates.
Conclusion: We conclude that with targeted recruitment and retention
strategies, minority women will participate at high rates in behavioral
clinical trials. We also found that women who drop out are different
from women who are lost to follow-up, and require different strategies
to optimize their completion of the study.'
