What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Receptivity for measuring milk intake for 5-7 days using a smartphone app (time frame: 1 day). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
