#DM/PM STUDY
The Henne Group is
currently working on a new project involving men and women who have been
diagnosed with Dermatomyositis & Polymyositis.
Our primary objectives
are to gain an understanding of what the DM/PM disease and treatment
experiences are like and to determine the support needed by myositis patients.
Qualified participants
will men and women aged 18 and up who have been diagnosed with DM or PM for at
least one year and have been on immunosuppressant treatment for myositis at any
point within the last three years.
The lead members of
the project team have substantial experience conducting research with this
population. Over the past three years, THG’s Jeff Henne has conducted more than
100 one-on-one in-depth interviews with myositis patients and their caregivers,
and has managed the administration of a web-based survey of 100 adults living
with DM or PM.
Looking
for participants
The Henne Group is
looking for adults who have been diagnosed with DM or PM. Qualifying patients will be asked to complete
a 30-minute web-based survey regarding their experiences living with and
seeking treatment for their condition.
Those who complete the survey will be paid $20 for their time and input.
No attempt will be made
to sell anything or influence participants’ thinking, and all responses will be
anonymous and confidential.

as well.
