“…The main challenge of the project was the recruitment of participants from the target population. This is in agreement with almost all studies targeting sensitive topics like SHS exposure in children among disadvantaged families [ 11 , 35 ]. Due to these difficulties in recruitment, with respect to socio-economic status, the relevant criterion for inclusion in the study was the job status of the parent that took part in the study.…”

“…One limitation of the quantitative part of the study was the lack of a list of the target population of which a random sample could have been chosen. In addition, based on our own experience and the experience of other researchers aiming at asking disadvantaged families about a sensitive topic, we only expected a response of 10–20% [ 35 , 36 ]. For recruitment, we followed recommendations to contact the target population in their native languages by interculturally trained staff and to distribute the study information through multiple channels (counselling centres, clubs, doctor’s practices, Internet) [ 36 ].…”

Children from disadvantaged families are particularly exposed to second hand smoke in their home environment. Using a mixed methods participatory approach, we aimed at identifying suitable media channels and appropriate content for a campaign increasing caregivers’ knowledge about the risks of second hand smoke (SHS) exposure for their children and appropriate measures for exposure reduction. In the first phase of the mixed method design, we evaluated knowledge and norms about children’s SHS and perceived barriers for avoiding it. To this end, we conducted 26 one-to-one interviews with smoking caregivers of children below the age of six years. Subsequently, we developed and illustrated core messages and identified appropriate communication channels. These were evaluated in focus group discussions by 20 of the 26 interview participants. After a final revision, 121 caregivers evaluated the campaign via an online questionnaire. Online social networks were identified as the most suitable media channel. For these, we developed animated photos with voiceovers addressing the potential consequences of SHS for children. The overall rating of the campaign messages was promising. Participants confirmed that it was important to address the issue in social media. However, sharing the pictures was considered unlikely due to the sensitive topic of the campaign, while the importance of doctors or scientists being recognizable as a source was highlighted. Employing a participatory approach, we developed an m-health campaign, which can now be disseminated in social networks to reach the target population. The effectiveness of the campaign should be evaluated.

“…This “on-demand” comprehension of the medical health service in Turkish patients might contribute to the limited emphasize of valid and current contact data. Invalid address data and the low response rate in Turkish patients was reported in other health surveys [ 26 ] and might also be attributable to the fact that many elderly Turkish immigrants commute between Turkey and Germany [ 25 ].…”

Feasibility of including patients with migration background in a structured heart failure management programme: A prospective case-control study exemplarily on Turkish migrants

AimsStructured management programmes deliver optimized care in heart failure patients and improve outcome. We examined the feasibility of including patients with migration background speaking little or no German in a heart failure management programme.Methods and resultsAfter adaption of script material and staff to Turkish language we aimed to recruit 300 Turkish and 300 German (control group) patients within 18 months using the operational basis of a local heart failure management programme for screening, contact and inclusion.Of 488 and 1,055 eligible Turkish and German patients identified through screening, 165 Turkish (34%) and 335 German (32%) patients consented on participation (p = 0.46). General practitioners contributed significantly more of the Turkish (84%) than of the German patients (16%, p<0.001). Contact attempts by programme staff were significantly less successful in Turkish (52%) than in German patients (60%, p = 0.005) due to significantly higher rate of missing phone numbers (36% vs 25%), invalid address data (28% vs 7%) and being unreachable by phone more frequently (39% vs 26%, all p<0.001). Consent rate was significantly higher in successfully contacted Turkish (63%) compared to German patients (50%, p<0.001).ConclusionThe inclusion of Turkish minority patients into a heart failure management programme is feasible with higher consent rate than in Germans. However, effort is high due to inherent logistic adaptions and barriers in identification and contacting of patients.Trial registrationDRKS00007780

“…Die Berücksichtigung von Menschen mit Migrationshintergrund in bevölkerungsbezogenen Studien ist für die Darstellung der gesundheitlichen Lage in einem Einwanderungsland wie Deutschland unerlässlich [1]. Gezielte, subgruppenspezifische Maßnahmen zur Erhöhung der Teilnahmemotivation sind nötig, um die Bevölkerung mit Migrationshintergrund ausreichend in epidemiologischen Studien zu berücksichtigen [2][3][4]. Eine Übersichtsarbeit von 26 US-amerikanischen, australischen und kanadischen Studien hebt als wichtige Faktoren für eine erfolgreiche Rekrutierung von kulturellen und ethnischen Minderheiten Flexibilität, Kompensationsleistungen, eine gute Vertrauensbasis und den Einsatz von kulturell und ethnisch diversem Personal hervor [5].…”

Rekrutierungsstrategien für Migrantinnen in einer Geburtskohorte am Beispiel der BaBi-Studie

For recruitment of women with a migration background, it is crucial to use both careful preparation in the form of qualitative measures (focus groups, structured interviews) and a pilot study. Extra resources should be planned from the beginning for diverse recruitment strategies and a higher personnel demand (e. g., for translations and back translations). Efforts for the inclusions of migrants in social epidemiological studies in Germany should be a routine process.

Abstract: For postal invitation to participate in healthcare measures, or recruitment of Turkish migrants for studies, differences in current address and readiness to respond must be taken into consideration.
