Shared decision-making and behaviour change collide: an analysis of consultations discussing clinical trial recruitment

While a range of BCTs were identified, SDM efforts were generally low. Recruitment practices may benefit from more deliberate consideration of these techniques and greater emphasis on shared decision-making to support informed choices.
