Applying co-production principles in research: reflections from young people and academics.

Co-production, a form of collaborative working, is guided by principles including valuing all participants, building on individual strengths, blurring distinctions between roles, delivering benefits for all participants, building support networks and supporting people to deliver work themselves. This article explores how co-production is understood by young people and researchers and how co-production principles can be applied within a research context. We identify challenges of implementing existing co-production frameworks in research and key areas to consider for future work.

How do Pregnant Women with Additional Health or Social Care Needs Experience Parenting Groups: Evidence from Delivery of Enhanced Triple P for Baby and Mellow Bumps as Part of the Trial of Healthy Relationships Initiatives in the Very Early Years (THRIVE).

There is still relatively little known about when, why, how and in what circumstances parenting interventions are effective. Support within the group context has been theorised as a key mechanism. This paper explores how pregnant women with additional health or social care needs participating in two group parenting interventions-Mellow Bumps or Enhanced Triple P for Babies-experienced being in a parenting group, and how this shaped how they engaged with the interventions; and it examines how group delivery may have facilitated or inhibited the effectiveness of the interventions, and for whom it did so.

Classification of cochlear implant complications using a modified Clavien-Dindo classification.

Objectives: Cochlear implantation (CI) surgery is a highly effective procedure for severe to profound hearing loss, with a low complication rate. There are currently multiple grading systems for CI surgery complications, making comparison of outcomes difficult. We propose a modification to the Clavien-Dindo classification of complications, and use this modified classification to analyse our complications.

Defining research priorities for youth public mental health: reflections on a coproduction approach to transdisciplinary working.

Background: With most mental health problems established during childhood/adolescence, young people must be a key focus of public mental health approaches. Despite the range of factors known to influence mental health, evidence for effective interventions is lacking for this age group. This study aimed to define priorities for future public health intervention-focused research to support youth mental health by engaging with transdisciplinary stakeholder groups.

Recruiting hard-to-reach pregnant women at high psychosocial risk: strategies and costs from a randomised controlled trial.

Background: Recruiting participants to randomised controlled trials (RCTs) is often challenging, particularly when working with socially disadvantaged populations who are often termed 'hard-to-reach' in research. Here we report the recruitment strategies and costs for the Trial for Healthy Relationship Initiatives in the Very Early years (THRIVE), an RCT evaluating two group-based parenting interventions for pregnant women.

Methods: THRIVE aimed to recruit 500 pregnant women with additional health and social care needs in Scotland between 2014 and 2018.
