My Research Legacy Pilot Study
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The My Research Legacy Pilot Study will establish a participant registry that collects self-reported health data and answers to online survey questions about individual daily choices, diets, and exercise; data from wearable devices; and, (optional) data from genome sequencing analysis. Individuals under the age of 50 who meet eligibility criteria will answer questions using the American Heart Association's (AHA) Life's Simple 7™ My Life Check v4.0 three times over the course of 6 months and transmit data from a Fitbit Charge 2 device. All other individuals who are interested in the study and meet entry criteria may also enroll.

Detailed Description
2,000 Participant My Research Legacy Pilot Study
- Day 0 - Enroll online, complete AHA's Life's Simple 7™ Survey Prospective participants will enroll in the research initiative via the My Research Legacy website (MyResearchLegacy.org). They will go through an online process in which they will answer brief, pre-qualifying questions before consenting to participate in the study.
-
Participants will attest to their age and US residence, and will provide a self-reported diagnosis of cardiovascular disease (myocardial infarction, atrial fibrillation, aortic dissection, systolic congestive heart failure/cardiomyopathy) and/or stroke.
-
Eligible participants will read and sign an online consent form.
-
Within the participant console, the participants will answer AHA's Life's Simple 7™ My Life Check v4.0 assessment.
-
Participants will be asked during the consent process if they will consent to provide medical records relevant to their diagnosis.
-
Day 90 Complete AHA's Life's Simple 7™ My Life Check v4.0 assessment; Start transmission from the Fitbit Charge 2.
-
Online Survey and contact Day 180 after enrollment, participants will receive an email requesting that they visit the participant console to repeat AHA's Life's Simple 7™ My Life Check v4.0 survey. Participants also have the option of determining whether or not they want to be contacted for future studies.
