HOPE Study Patient Family Partners

Patient Family Partners include patients from site locations in each time zone included in this study and who have lived experience recovering from cardiovascular conditions around pregnancy and postpartum.

Their roles include guiding verbiage on informed consents, partnering with us to recruit and retain patients in this study, and to communicate the value of the study to patients so they remain engaged. They are also invaluable for the physician participants in the study so that they always have a patient perspective parallel to the study operations.  Additionally, these patient family partners will be working to help us with dissemination of study results.
