Study Announcement:

Attention Parents of Kids with Lymphedema!

We are looking to talk to you!

Parents of children who have been diagnosed with lymphedema invited to participate in a research study. The purpose of this study is to better understand the experiences of biological parents of children with lymphedema.

We are interested in learning more from you about what it is like for you in caring for a child with primary lymphedema. Specifically, we want to know about your unique challenges as a parent, your role as an advocate for their child in health care, school-based, and other settings, how you explain lymphedema to your children and how you help your children in turn explain lymphedema to others.

Volunteers will participate in an informal interview over the telephone, via video conference (e.g, FaceTime, Skype, Google Hangout), or face-to-face with an interviewer. The interview may last up to one hour

This study has been approved by the Miami University Institutional Review Board: 01182r.

If you would like to participate in this opportunity, please contact the Principal Investigator:
