Secondary outcomes were assessed at 6 and 12&#x2009;months post randomization.RESULTS:We randomized 328 participants. There were no clinically important differences in the primary outcome between arms at six-month follow-up (mean EMQ-p score: 38.8 (SD 26.1) in intervention and 44.1 (SD 24.6) in control arms, adjusted difference in means: -2.1, 95% confidence interval (CI): -6.7 to 2.5, p&#x2009;=&#x2009;0.37) or 12-month follow-up.
