The ABA-FEED trial is now closed to recruitment. ABA-FEED trial has recruited 2475 participants.
The ABA-feed trial aimed to recruit up to 2500 women over a period of 2 years from NHS Trusts across the UK.
The trial is collaboration between the Universities of Birmingham, Bristol, Stirling, Central Lancashire and Cardiff.
There will be 10-15 participating sites across the UK; each site is an English local authority area or NHS health board (Wales & Scotland). Within these areas NHS 'recruiting centres' will recruit participants who attend antenatal/ultrasound appointments. Social media & a dedicated public engagement website will also be optimised to recruit participants.
