How was it for you? - obtaining feedback from staff at study sites for the HPS2-thrive trial

Results 62% of the questionnaires were completed and returned, with equal response rates from Investigators and Research Coordinators. The vast majority (85%) of respondents had been involved in both the recruitment and follow-up phases of HPS2-THRIVE. 90% of the respondents rated their overall experience of working on HPS2-THRIVE as ≥8/10. 90% also said they would be interested in working on another trial coordinated by CTSU, and 93% would recommend working on a future CTSU trial to colleagues. 80% considered their overall experience to be better or much better than other trials they had worked on. Additional questions and analysis provided insights into the underlying factors, including some areas for improvement. Conclusion The survey was easy to manage, with a relatively high response rate. The feedback from study site staff was very informative. We would encourage other CTUs to consider adopting a similar approach.
