MyPaTH Story Booth: Sharing Patient and Caregiver Stories
This study, called MyPaTH Story Booth, is collecting personal stories from patients and caregivers. It uses an audio recording approach, similar to StoryCorps, to understand your experiences with illness, coping, and healthcare. The goal is to gather many stories to create an archive that can help provide insight into healthcare delivery. You can join if you are 18 years or older. The study aims to collect a certain number of stories, and its current recruitment status is unclear.
- Study design
- This is an observational study, meaning researchers will collect information without giving any specific treatments. It plans to enroll 2000 participants.
- What's involved
- You would work with an interview partner (like a family member or friend) to record your personal story. You will also be asked to provide limited 'tags' (like your age, sex, and interview topic) for a searchable database.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary goal is to collect stories by September 2018, but ongoing follow-up is not specified.
