Lung Health Cohort Screening Survey |
Duke Pulmonary Medicine is currently recruiting male and female volunteers (25 - 35 years of age) for a study called Lung Health Cohort (LHC).
This research is being done to find out why some people have better lung function than others as young adults during the period of peak lung health (ages 25 to 35 years old). This will allow us to come up with ideas about how to promote the best possible lung function in adults and also prevent and treat lung diseases like asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD, also called emphysema or bronchitis), pulmonary fibrosis (scarring in the lungs), and lung cancer.
The survey below will ask you a few basic questions to assist us in contacting you to inform you about the study and to confirm you meet certain study criteria. If you prefer, we can also ask you the survey questions over the phone and complete the survey for you.
Completion of the survey also means that your information will be seen by members of the Duke Pulmonary Medicine research team. The only risk to you is the risk of loss of confidentiality. However, all of the individuals who will see your information are trained professionals who work with healthcare information daily and are aware of the importance of maintaining confidentiality of health records. Your personal Information will be stored securely and can be withdrawn at any time.
Based on your survey responses, if you meet study criteria for the Lung Health Cohort study, we will contact you to schedule a screening visit.
For questions or more information please call the Duke Airway Research Group at 919-479-0861.
