Sumario:INTRODUCTION: We developed a service to identify potential study participants through electronic medical records and deliver study invitations through patient portals. METHODS: The service was piloted in a cohort study that used multiple recruitment methods. RESULTS: Patient portal messages were sent to 1303 individuals and the enrollment rate was 10% (n=127). The patient portal enrollment rate was significantly higher than email and post mail (4%) strategies. CONCLUSION: Patient portal messaging was an effective recruitment strategy.
