A vizsgálat saját részvételi feltételeiből. Gép olvasta ki az oldalon álló regiszterszövegből, ezért tévedhet. Hogy ki vehet részt, azt a lenti regiszterszöveg és a vizsgálat csapata dönti el.
The trial is looking for young people aged 16-25 with moderate to severe congenital heart disease (a heart problem present from birth) and their parents. It also needs young adult and parent volunteers to act as online peer mentors.
- Életkor
- Young people (mentees): 16-25 years old. Young adult mentors: 21-30 years old. Parents: no age limit given.
- Nem
- All sexes can join.
- A betegség stádiuma
- Moderate to severe congenital heart disease. The treating heart doctor or a qualified health professional must expect a 5-year survival rate of more than 70%.
- Korábbi kezelés
- Young people cannot join if they had surgery for their heart disease in the last 6 months or had a heart transplant. The same applies to the child of a parent who wants to join.
A részvétel fő kizáró okai
- Serious problems with thinking or memory, as judged by a qualified health provider
- An active mental health disorder, such as major depression, that would get in the way of managing care

A vizsgálatról
Mit akar kideríteni a vizsgálat
Adolescents and young adults (AYA) with congenital heart disease (CHD) face psychosocial stresses as they transition to adult care. Parents of AYA with CHD also experience increased caregiver burden and psychosocial stresses. Peer support provided by a person with a similar experience has been found to improve disease self-management and psychosocial health outcomes in pediatric healthcare. However, many AYA with CHD still do not have access to formal social support resources. The aim of this study is to improve pediatric to adult transitions in healthcare by evaluating peer mentorship programs for AYA with CHD and their parents.
A teljes eredeti leírásKevesebb
Established, online mentorship programs, iPeer2Peer(iP2P)/iParent2Parent, will be employed through a pilot feasibility waitlist randomized controlled trial with repeated measures across four sites. Eighty mentees (AYA and parents of AYA) will be recruited and randomized into intervention and control groups. Forty mentees in the intervention group will be matched 1:1 with 30 trained mentors (young adults and parents of AYA). AYA mentees will be matched with young adult mentors and parents of AYA will be matched with other parent mentors. These pairings will connect over 12 weeks through video calls and text messaging to provide peer support to improve self-management and psychosocial health outcomes.

- Intervention groupA vizsgált kezelés
In addition to their standard medical care, mentees in the experimental group will receive mentorship and support via the iP2P/iParent2Parent program. Trained mentors will provide information and support to mentee participants to encourage participation in self-management skill-building tailored to their needs. Each mentor will work with no more than two mentees at once for the study. Efforts will be made to pair mentors and mentees who share similar characteristics (e.g., similar disease severity, symptom profile, treatment regimen experiences, caregiver role, sex/gender, geographic area of residence). To ensure safety, a member of the research team will monitor all calls and messaging conversations as well as intervene in any potential safety concerns (e.g., discussion of suicidal ideation) or inappropriate behavior (e.g. bullying).
Kezelés: Peer mentorship
- Waitlist control groupNincs vizsgálati kezelés, összehasonlításként
The control group will receive standard care without the iP2P/iParent2Parent intervention. The control group will be offered the iP2P/iParent2Parent intervention after completion of all outcome measures for a period of 12 weeks with the same research team support.
