Deciding whether a child will
participate in a clinical study can be especially difficult.
This site was developed to help parents, patients and healthcare
professionals consider many aspects of joining a pediatric clinical study. The
site was created and is maintained by the Pediatric Heart Network (PHN),
which was established in 2001 by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood
Institute to improve outcomes and quality of life in children
who acquire or are born with heart disease.
