INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE: VAD WEARABLES RESEARCH PROJECT

https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/VAD-wearables

We are currently inviting Ventricular Assist Device patients globally to participate in an online questionnaire about their experience with their VAD wearable systems. The aim of the questionnaire is to research how Ventricular Assist Device patients feel about the design of their external wearable VAD gear. This questionnaire is part of a wider research project exploring the user experience of wearable components of Ventricular Assist Devices.

The questionnaire may take approximately 15-20 minutes of your time to complete.

Your participation is completely voluntary.

If you are a VAD patient and would like to participate, the link to access the questionnaire is:

Kind regards,
