The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute awarded The Johns Hopkins University a $250,000 Project Grant under the Nursing Research program (CFDA 93.361) to conduct a mechanistic randomized controlled trial testing the Heart Failure Resilience Intervention for Caregivers (HEROIC). The award, effective June 1, 2026 through March 31, 2031, supports research examining how a theory- and evidence-based primary palliative intervention improves outcomes for family caregivers of advanced heart failure patients and the patients themselves. The HEROIC intervention consists of five individualized nurse-led sessions delivered over 10 weeks via video calls, addressing caregiving and palliative care needs while targeting caregiver mental health through multi-level resilience resources encompassing individual, community, and existential dimensions. The study will enroll 250 family caregivers of persons with advanced heart failure to evaluate the intervention's mechanisms of action and effectiveness. This research directly responds to the substantial burden placed on family caregivers who manage advanced heart failure care in home settings with limited support, while simultaneously experiencing mental health decline, financial strain, and social isolation. By advancing evidence-based nursing interventions that support both patient and caregiver well-being in advanced heart failure, this project aligns with the Nursing Research program's emphasis on holistic, patient and community-focused research addressing chronic disease management and health disparities.Federal Grant Award Summary
