Recruitment | Retention | Family Members | Compensation Incentives | Study Enrollment | Clinical...

There is a need to identify strategies that improve the conduct of clinical trials involving family members of intensive care unit (ICU) patients. The purpose of the present study is to evaluate recruitment and retention strategies for clinical trials involving family members of ICU patients. 4 strategies (2 recruitment and 2 retention) will be tested. Investigators will integrate the strategies into three existing studies that involve family members of ICU patients. Participants will be randomized using a 2x2 factorial design. The co-primary outcomes are recruitment percentage (participants enrolled/participants approached) and retention percentage (participants completing follow-up/participants enrolled).
