Participants
This section of the website contains information for participants in the EDIT study.
We sent out letters to potential participants in April 2011 and started contacting people by telephone in June 2011. We are not currently recruiting new participants.
This section of the website contains information for these participants including information on our recruitment procedures and information about what taking part in the EDIT study will involve. You are welcome to contact us if you need more information about the study.
If you have any questions about your rights as a participant in the EDIT study, you can phone the Douglas Hospital Ombudsman at 514-761-6131 ext. 3287.
Follow-up interviews
The follow-up interview is very important for the study and for gaining a better understanding of health and wellbeing over time in diabetes. Your participation is greatly appreciated.
If you agreed to participate in the follow-up portion of the study in 2015, you will be contacted between October and December 2015.
If, at the time of the first interview, you did not agree to participate in the follow-up, but would now like to participate, please contact us.
