ABSTRACT
Objective. To describe the design, methods, and challenges
encountered during a randomized clinical trial aimed to
promote water intake for reducing risks of metabolic
syndrome in Mexican women.
Materials and methods. In
a randomized clinical trial in Cuernavaca, Mexico, overweight
and obese (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 25 ‹ 39) women, 18
- ‹ 45 years old with an intake of sugar-sweetened beverages
≥ 250 kilocalories per day (kcal/day) were randomly allocated
to the water and education provision group (n = 120) or
the education provision only group (n = 120).
Results. We
screened 1 756 women. The main difficulties encountered
were identifying participants with the recruitment criteria,
delivering water to participants, and the time demanded
from the study participants.
Conclusions. The trial’s main
challenges were difficulties surrounding recruitment, delivery
of the intervention, and the time demanded from the study
participants. Modifications were effectively implemented
without jeopardizing the original protocol.
