Evaluation of efficiency and effectiveness of different recruitment strategies for the FINGER‐NL multidomain lifestyle intervention trial via the Dutch Brain Research Registry
An online brain research registry recruited eligible participants successfully.Mass media recruitment strategies are efficient for reaching large numbers.Direct recruitment through researchers and patient organizations seems more effective.Online registries offer automated prescreening and alternatives for screen-failures.Tailored strategies are needed to reach underrepresented groups to improve diversity.
