To explore the perspectives of Māori and Pacific women who participated in the Fish Oil study to ascertain what barriers and facilitators may exist for successfully recruiting Māori and Pacific women into clinical trials.
A Kaupapa Māori qualitative study.
Auckland, New Zealand.
16 Māori and Pacific women who participated in the fish oil supplementation during pregnancy study (ACTRN12617001078347p) between 1 January 2017 and 31 December 2020.
Semistructured in-depth interviews were conducted, recorded and transcribed and then subjected to inductive thematic analysis to identify key themes related to barriers and facilitators of successful Māori and Pacific women recruitment into a clinical trial.
Of 37 eligible Māori and Pacific women who participated in the original Fish Oil study, 16 women consented to participate in this study. Three key themes were identified: (1) relationships matter, (2) privileges and barriers and (3) the study experience. Key facilitators for recruitment included having solid relationships with research team members, practising exemplary professionalism, having clear communication and having the ability to establish rapport and research team flexibility. The desire to create a better future for participants' babies and to give back to Māori and Pacific communities through participating in a clinical trial were also key drivers of successful recruitment. In contrast, the major barriers described were time pressures and the distance to the research facility.
Sixteen Māori and Pacific women who participated in a double-blinded randomised controlled trial shared that successful recruitment of Māori and Pacific women into clinical trials can be promoted by research flexibility participants' whānau/family responsibilities, effective and culturally safe communication, and research teams striving to build and maintain relationships with participants throughout the trial.

探讨参与鱼油研究的毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性的观点，以确定在成功招募毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性参与临床试验方面可能存在哪些障碍和促进因素。
一项基于毛利文化 kaupapa 的定性研究。
新西兰奥克兰。
16 名毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性，她们在 2017 年 1 月 1 日至 2020 年 12 月 31 日期间参与了孕期补充鱼油研究（澳大利亚和新西兰临床试验注册号：ACTRN12617001078347p）。
进行半结构化深度访谈，录音并转录，然后进行归纳主题分析，以确定与成功招募毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性参与临床试验的障碍和促进因素相关的关键主题。
在参与原鱼油研究的 37 名符合条件的毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性中，16 名女性同意参与本研究。确定了三个关键主题：（1）关系很重要，（2）特权和障碍，（3）研究体验。招募的关键促进因素包括与研究团队成员建立稳固的关系、践行模范专业精神、进行清晰的沟通、有能力建立融洽关系以及研究团队的灵活性。希望为参与者的婴儿创造更美好的未来，并通过参与临床试验回馈毛利族和太平洋岛裔社区，也是成功招募的关键驱动力。相比之下，所描述的主要障碍是时间压力和到研究机构的距离。
16 名参与双盲随机对照试验的毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性表示，通过研究灵活性、参与者的家庭责任、有效且符合文化安全的沟通，以及研究团队在整个试验过程中努力与参与者建立和维持关系，可以促进成功招募毛利族和太平洋岛裔女性参与临床试验。
