Dear PULSE Members and Friends of PULSE,

You are invited to take part in a research project investigating the effect of medical error on the family members of the patient.

This invitation is offered by Sherry Worsham, a graduate student at Harvard University.  The PULSE organization has agreed to forward this research opportunity to you. 

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary.  If you choose to participate, you will respond to questions about the medical error experience of a family member. 

To be eligible to take part in the study, you must be 18 years of age or older and have a family member that experienced a medical error between the dates of January 1, 1999 and January 1, 2009.   

 

Only one member of each family in which a family member has experienced a medical error should complete the study. If you are the victim of a medical error, please select one family member to complete the survey.

 

If you completed the questions earlier or are not interested in research participation, please ignore this invitation; however, you are encouraged to forward this invitation to others that might be interested in this study.
