Abstract

By leveraging existing networks to reach the aortic dissection (AD) community through online patient support networks and advocacy and professional organizations, the project will expand outreach to engage additional individuals at risk for AD through a patient-facing COVID-19 survey. The enhancement will also solicit the perspectives of front-line healthcare professionals, including vascular surgeons, cardiac surgeons, and cardiologists via a survey of experiences caring for patients with AD during the COVID-19 pandemic. A subsample of patient and provider survey respondents will participate in in-depth interviews for a more detailed understanding of how COVID-19 is affecting the AD community.
