This National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) Project Grant (CFDA 93.361) award of $971,652 to The Trustees of Columbia University in the City of New York, with sub-awards to the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and The Johns Hopkins University, aims to study patient activation, cognition, and self-management behaviors in patients with left-ventricular assist devices (LVADs). The research project will examine the relationships between patient activation, cognitive function, LVAD self-management, and healthcare utilization over 12 months post-LVAD surgery. The goal is to identify opportunities to optimize self-management and reduce healthcare costs for this complex patient population. The sub-awards support the project's clinical expertise, biostatistical analysis, and implementation strategies. Findings may have broader implications for patient activation and self-management interventions in heart failure patients without LVADs and other chronic illnesses.
