Children’s Acceptability of Minitablets mixEd with fOod (CAMEO)
Recruitment now closed
Please note that recruitment for this study has now closed. The PMRU team would like to thank all the children and families for taking part in our research study. We’ve had really positive feedback from those taking part.
Would you and your child be interested in helping us with the CAMEO research study?
We are looking for children (aged 6 months to 7 years) to take part in our research. We want to know if children can swallow minitablets when mixed in a soft food of choice (yoghurt/apple sauce), because lots of children do not like the taste of oral liquid medicines.
Depending on age, each child will be asked to swallow either 1 or 2 samples of placebo minitablets (2.3mm), which do not contain any medicine and answer some questions afterwards (if old enough to do so).
They will be filmed as they attempt to swallow the sample(s), separately. This will take no more than 60 minutes.
You will receive a £25 LOVE2SHOP gift voucher for your time.
