Community Voices in Research (CVR) is a partnership between the bleeding disorder community and NBDF! CVR is a community powered registry that will document the experiences of persons living with inherited bleeding disorders and their non-affected relatives over the years to offer a 360-view of what it is like to live with a bleeding disorder.
People who participate in CVR will share information consistently over several years through surveys. This will allow researchers to better understand how bleeding disorders affect individuals and their family members across their lifespan. It will also help participants understand their individual situation and how a bleeding disorder affects their life.
The confidential, deidentified aggregate data gathered through CVR will ultimately contribute to the goal of improving clinical outcomes and quality of life and identifying research questions important to the community.
