Project Letter of Information and Consent Form for Participants

Project Title: The Parkwood Planning and Pacing App ™

Investigators: Dalton Wolfe, PhD (Principal Investigator); Laura Graham, PhD; Stephanie Marrocco, MSc; Marquise Bonn, MSc.

Sponsors: Staffen family through the Brain and Mind Matters Fund held within the Stratford Perth Community Foundation, Cowan Foundation, St. Mary's Hospital Foundation, and St. Joseph's Health Care Foundation

Background
Individuals with a mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI)/concussion often experience symptoms that are life-altering and can affect a person’s quality of life. This research study will help develop a new mobile application (app) called, "MyBrainPacer™" tailored for individuals with a mTBI/concussion. This app is an updated version of a time management tool developed by an occupational therapist at Parkwood Institute, which was originally implemented using pen and paper. This time management tool aims to help individuals cope with their persistent symptoms associated with a mTBI/concussion, which can improve self-management skills. Self-management refers to a person’s ability to manage the symptoms, treatment, physical and lifestyle changes inherent in living with a chronic condition.
Invitation to Participate
You are invited to participate in a research study that will help develop MyBrainPacer™. Through this research trial we will be able to better understand the natural progression of symptoms following a mTBI/concussion as well as the relationship between activities and symptom intensity. We will also be able to further test and validate the app to ensure it is relevant to individuals with a mTBI/concussion.
Purpose of the Letter
The purpose of this letter is to provide you with information required to make an informed decision regarding participation in this research study. This letter will explain the objective of the study and procedures to be followed as a participant. Please take your time reading this letter carefully and ensure you fully understand it before agreeing to participate.
Purpose of this Study
The purpose of this study is to 1) examine the usability and user satisfaction of MyBrainPacer™, and 2) develop software analytics in order to determine patterns of recovery to personalize the app.
Inclusion Criteria
All participants must 1) Have experienced a mTBI/concussion; 2) Disclose the mechanism of injury and whether you have been diagnosed with a concussion (and by who) 3) Be 18 years or older; 4) Have access to a smartphone or tablet; and 5) Be able to read, write, and understand English.
Exclusion Criteria
A participant will not be eligible to participate if he/she 1) Has not experienced a mTBI/concussion; 2) Is not willing to disclose information about the injury or concussion diagnosis; 3) Is less than 18 years old; 4) Does not have access to a smartphone or tablet; 5) Cannot read, write, or understand English.
Study Procedures
If you agree to participate and meet the inclusion criteria listed above, you are invited to download and use the app. You are responsible for inputting: your email, gender, birthday, country you currently live in, how and when you sustained your brain injury, what part of your head was injured, whether you were diagnosed with a concussion (and the diagnosing clinician’s position, e.g. family doctor, nurse, etc.), the symptoms you experienced when first injured, and your current symptoms. You will then have access to the app to track and monitor your daily tasks and symptoms at any time, for as long as you’d like to use the app. While using the app, you will be prompted to fill out short assessments, including the Rivermead Post-Concussion Questionnaire once a month (to monitor your symptoms), a community participation questionnaire once every 6 months (to see how you are performing everyday activities), and an overall symptom question once a week (where you can rate how you are feeling in general from a lot better to a lot worse). These will be completed directly within the app. The answers from your questionnaires will be used to assess the usability and satisfaction with the app. Your answers will also be used to customize the app for future users, including understanding activity and symptom patterns.
Possible Risks and Harms
Excessive screen time may increase your symptoms. In order to reduce this risk, consider limiting your time spent on screens. Additionally, this app is not a substitute for seeking a medical professional, and it not responsible for symptom aggravation. There is a potential to encounter technical difficulties when using the app. In such case, technical support will be provided to ensure a working system is available.
Possible Benefits
This app may help you to better manage your daily activities and symptoms following a mTBI/concussion. Furthermore, the feedback obtained from this study will help to create a more customized version of the mobile application, which can benefit others with a mTBI/concussion.
Voluntary Participation
Participation in this study is voluntary. You may refuse to participate or withdraw from the study at any time by emailing us at mybrainpacer@sjhc.london.on.ca with no effect on your future care or support. If you do not wish to answer any questions at any point in time while using the app (when registering or any time after), you should stop using the app. One month of inactivity will result in your withdrawal from the study. If you withdraw from the study, you will not be able to use the app anymore. You do not waive any legal rights by signing this consent form.
Confidentiality
All data collected will remain confidential and accessible only to the investigators of this study. To maintain confidentiality, the system will automatically assign to you a numeric participant ID upon registration of the app. This ensures all the data you enter into the app is de-identified, and no one, not even the investigators will know what data is yours. Your personal identity will never be revealed in any reports regarding this study. Electronic data will be encrypted in the application, as well by a secure server at Lawson Health Research Institute, which will host all data. If the results are published, your name will not be used. If you choose to withdraw from this study, you can also choose to have your data removed and destroyed from our database. Otherwise, data will be stored for 15 years and then destroyed as per Lawson Policy. While we will do our best to protect your information, there is no guarantee that we will be able to do so. Representatives of The University of Western Ontario Health Sciences Research Ethics Board may contact you or require access to your study-related records to monitor the conduct of the research. Additionally, representatives of Lawson Quality Assurance (QA) Education Program may look at study data for Quality Assurance purposes.
Conflict of Interest
There is a possibility this app might involve some form of commercialization, although the nature of this conflict of interest will not be clear until several iterations of usability and validation testing are completed. Once these are completed, we will have a greater understanding if all or some of the organization bodies involved in supporting our research and development (St. Joseph's Foundation, St. Joseph's Health Care London, Parkwood Institute, Parkwood Institute Research and Lawson Health Research Institute) will gain monetary benefit from commercialization of the app.
Contacts for Further Information
If you require any further information regarding this research project or your participation in the study, please contact mybrainpacer@sjhc.london.on.ca, or Lawson Health Research Institute. If you have any questions about your rights as a research participant or the conduct of this study, you may contact the Director of The Office of Human Research Ethics (519) 661-3036, email: ethics@uwo.ca. Additionally, you may also contact: St. Joseph's Health Care London Patient Relations Consultant at 519-646-6100 ext. 64727
Publication
Upon completion of the study, the results will be shared to inform future development of self-management apps for individuals with a mTBI/concussion. Your name will not be used if the study findings are shared in academic conferences or published as a written report in a scholarly, peer-reviewed journal.
