Mitigating Dropout in a Clinical Trial for Teenagers
Learn how we reversed the fear and anxiety that often accompanies participant decisions.
The Problem
Dropout. Patient fear and anxiety around participation proved difficult for recruitment and led to trial drop out particularly with the teen population.
Solution
Relatable Resources. We designed a program to honor each age cohort in an authentic, familiar voice. Knowing their comfort with digital media, a study website was created to ensure participants could learn on their own terms at their own time.
