Patient Preferences for Heart Failure: A Collaborative Study

MDIC’s Science of Patient Input: Heart Failure Study was officially launched in October of 2018 as an industry-wide collaborative effort including medical device industry sponsors, regulatory agencies, and preference assessment experts from Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI) to advance the science of regulatory patient preference assessment. Based on research objectives, study attributes, patient population, and a stated preference survey instrument, the study will help us gain a better understanding of patient preferences based on efficacy and safety outcomes of possible medical devices for heart failure. The results of this study will strengthen MDIC’s broader effort to promote regulatory science and develop a framework for Patient Input in the Design of Medical Device Clinical Trials.
