Data Collection Update
We are pleased to report that for 6 week our overall response rate was 92% and for 6 month our overall response rate was 81%. Thank you all for helping us to achieve this!
All of the Pre-Treatment and 6 week data has now been entered into our database, and data quality checking has been completed. We have also carried out a check of all the Primary Outcome data. We identified minimal errors which our statistician was very happy with.
We have now also completed data collection and data entry of the 6 month follow-up and are currently completing quality checking.
We need your feedback
Thank you to everyone that has completed our recent survey monkey collecting feedback from sites. We were overwhelmed with the response! We are now in the process of compiling this feedback and developing some ‘lessons learnt’ to help us with future studies. If you would still like to send us your feedback please do so by the end of August. If you need the survey monkey link resending please contact Michelle Robinson.
