Face-to-face recruitment
Most potential participants (n = 22) were approached by
the research midwife at their routine obstetric visit.
Women were given an opportunity to discuss the study
and review the Participant Information Sheet and Consent
Form. If written consent was obtained, women were
randomised as per protocol. If women declined to participate,
or were found to be ineligible, their reason for
declining or ineligibility was recorded on the research
database.
