Implementing Strategies to Recruit and Retain a Diverse Sample of Heart Failure Patients.
Hispanic Health Care International : the Official Journal of the National Association of Hispanic Nurses 2024 April 23
Introduction: The increased prevalence, severity, and mortality of heart disease and specifically heart failure among Hispanic and Black populations are a concern for clinicians and researchers. Additionally, patients of poor socioeconomic status also have worse outcomes for cardiovascular disease. To address disparities, it is necessary to address the persistent lack of representation in clinical research of diverse populations, including the Hispanic and Black populations and individuals who are of low socioeconomic status. Method: This study was a pilot randomized trial of a medication adherence intervention for heart failure patients conducted at a safety net hospital and affiliated pharmacy with a diverse patient population. Using an evidence-based multifactorial approach, this investigation implemented and adapted best practices to support the inclusion of Hispanic, Black, and socioeconomically diverse participants. Results: A total of 40 participants were recruited, 58% were Hispanic, 38% Black, and 5% White. A total of 40% reported the need for socioeconomic assistance. At 30 days after discharge, follow-up data were obtained for 37 of 40 (93%) of participants either by interview, electronic record, or both. Conclusion: Findings suggest that a combination of strategies used in this trial can be applied to recruit and retain ethnically and socioeconomically diverse participants.
