Examples of recent projects include: ‘The CONNECT study’; ‘A randomised controlled feasibility trial of a tailored digital behaviour change intervention with e-referral system to increase attendance at NHS Stop Smoking Services: The StopApp’; ‘A randomised controlled trial to assess the clinical and cost effectiveness of topical lactic acid gel for treating second and subsequent episodes of bacterial vaginosis’; ‘RCT to compare the clinical effectiveness and safety of gentamicin and ceftriaxone for gonorrhoea’.
The CONNECT study aims to understand the impact of remote consultations in sexual and reproductive health services on health inequalities
The MyWay Project is a randomised controlled feasibility trial of StopApp, a web-based self-administered interactive intervention designed to address the barriers that smokers typically face in accessing Stop Smoking Services.
This study assessed whether intravaginal lactic acid gel is clinically effective and cost-effective for treating recurrent bacterial vaginosis compared with oral metronidazole.
