Engaging Asian American Family Caregivers in Clinical Trials: Awareness, Preferences, and Concerns.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate Asian American caregivers' experiences and concerns related to clinical trials and the types of information they trust, use, and prefer before enrolling their older relative in a clinical trial. We conducted an online, cross-sectional survey with Asian American family caregivers between July 2022 and April 2023. Of all respondents (n = 98), 62.2% reported knowing only a little about clinical trials. Respondents expressed wanting information about (a) the purpose, design, and components of the trial; (b) trial research ethics and safety; and (c) their responsibilities as the caregiver. Greater engagement between clinicians and family caregivers of culturally diverse older adults could help minimize sociocultural barriers to participation in clinical trials. Providing key information to family caregivers in a comprehensive and accessible way without adding burden could help caregivers understand their responsibilities through the clinical trial process.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Applied Gerontology (JAG) is the official journal of the Southern Gerontological Society. It features articles that focus on research applications intended to improve the quality of life of older persons or to enhance our understanding of age-related issues that will eventually lead to such outcomes. We construe application broadly and encourage contributions across a range of applications toward those foci, including interventions, methodology, policy, and theory. Manuscripts from all disciplines represented in gerontology are welcome. Because the circulation and intended audience of JAG is global, contributions from international authors are encouraged.
