Recruitment rate measured using the proportion of eligible individuals invited to participate who are randomised (overall) in study records<br>1.2. Retention measured using the proportion of participants completing the 12-month follow-up visit (overall) in study records<br>1.3. Adherence to the treatment strategy by patients and clinicians measured using questionnaires<br>1.4. Acceptability of the treatment strategy to patients and clinicians measured using questionnaires and qualitative interviews with a subset of participants
