In the Fiber Study, a randomized controlled trial on symptom management for FI, we successfully enrolled 189 community-living adults through collaborations with specialty-based and community-based settings, each employing methods tailored to the organizational characteristics of their site. Results show that using the two settings increased racial and ethnic diversity of the sample and inclusion of informal caregivers. There were no differential effects on enrollment, final eligibility, or completion of protocol by site. Strategic collaborations with complementary sites can achieve sample recruitment goals for clinical trials on topics that are sensitive or known to be underreported.<p> 12002 Incontinence Comparing community and specialty provider-based recruitment in a randomized clinical trial: clinical trial in fecal incontinence Aging and Geriatrics Collaboration 18584 document-rn19251 Randomized Controlled Trials
