The ASSIST Study

Accessing Social Support in Symptom Treatment

The ASSIST Study is a research study for people who are currently taking at least one medicine to treat their vasculitis.  The goal of the ASSIST study is to understand where vasculitis patients get information about their medications and how supportive relationships help individuals cope with treatment side effects. 

Help us understand how you manage and effectively deal with your vasculitis treatment regimen. In this study, participants will be asked to complete two confidential online surveys. To be eligible, you must have a diagnosis of vasculitis, currently be taking at least one medication to treat your vasculitis, and be at least 18 years of age. Please contact the project director, Delesha Carpenter, to learn how you can participate.
