There will be four study groups:~Heart patients who experienced a cardiac arrhythmia while in hospital,~Heart patients who did not experience a cardiac arrhythmia while in hospital,~Heart patients with an upcoming procedure that have not had a cardiac arrhythmia,~Members of the general public.~There will be a presentation, two surveys and a team meeting. Results will be compiled and analyzed.
In this patient engagement study, patients and partners will attend a presentation, group meeting and responding to the survey to help the research team gage the acceptability of using a biological therapy to prevent cardiac arrhythmia. Patient Partners will also help to clarify which outcomes are important to patients, to ensure the selected outcomes align with patient interests.
