Purpose of the study
Prevention
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Subjects will be sought through antenatal clinics. Staff will ask pregnant women if they are interested in being contacted by Menzies School of Health Research about participating in ear health research. Research staff will contact interested women late in their pregancy for informed consent (Phase I) and again before their baby is 4 weeks of age (Phase II). Consented babies will be allocated to one of the three groups by the National Health and Medical Research Council Clinical Trials Centre, using their phone randomisation service. Allocation concealment will be achieved using this central randomisation by phone.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Sequence generation will be computer generated random number series.
Masking / blinding
