Consent Approach
Informed consent must be signed by a legally authorized representative (parent/legal guardian). Parent/caregiver information and ICF documents are provided for each country/language (examples: L1_IE_SIS-ICF_DBPC Parent for Ireland; L1_NL_SIS-ICF_Parent_DBPC_Dutch for Netherlands; L1_FR_SIS-ICF_Parent DBPC_French for France; L1_ES_SIS-ICF_Main DBPC_Spanish for Spain). Consent is obtained from the legally authorized representative; no participant assent is applicable given the 1–3 year age range. Documents available in country-specific languages (English/Irish site materials, Dutch, French, Spanish).

Methods

  • Country-specific recruitment materials: patient letters (patient-facing) for Ireland/Netherlands/France/Spain aimed at parents/caregivers of 1–3 year-old children with peanut allergy.
  • Brochures and posters (printed) for site distribution (country-specific; Dutch materials for Netherlands, French materials for France, Spanish materials for Spain).
  • Website design and online auto-recruitment materials (country-specific) as documented for France and Spain (online outreach).
  • Recruitment procedures documented (K1 recruitment procedure) for participating countries to guide site-level recruitment and screening.
