Message Framing on Recruiting Rh-D Negative Blood Donors
China1,082 participantsStarted 2020-07-22
Plain-language summary
Rh negative blood group is a rare blood group in China, as it only accounts for 0.3-0.4 percent of the Han population. Therefore, low inventory is often found in blood collection and supply agencies in many regions in China. On July 22, 2020 blood stockpile of O-negative and A-negative in Guangzhou Blood Center reached the warning line, and we took measures for emergency recruitment. O-negative and A-negative blood donors whose last donation dates were between January 1, 2018 and December 31, 2019 were identified and randomly assigned to four groups. Three different recruitment text messages were send three groups. We observed the re-donation rates among four groups within one week.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?

Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
