| Description: | The primary objective of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support the Clinical Centers in the Pediatric Heart Network (PHN). The mission of the PHN is to improve the health and quality of life for children, adolescents, and young adults with congenital and acquired heart disease through multicenter collaborative clinical research. The PHN provides an infrastructure to permit multicenter evaluation of medical, interventional and surgical therapies; to serve as a training platform for fellows, junior faculty and nurses; and to disseminate results of studies to improve the scientific basis for the care of affected individuals. There is a separate FOA for the PHN Data Coordinating Center ( RFA-HL-11-027).
Purpose. The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) invites applications to participate as a Clinical Center in the Pediatric Heart Network (PHN), a cooperative network of pediatric cardiovascular clinical research centers. The goal of the Network is to evaluate therapeutic and management strategies for children and adults with congenital heart defects and for children with inflammatory heart disease, heart muscle disease, and arrhythmias through multicenter clinical research. NHLBI expects that applications to participate in the PHN will reflect the collaborative nature of the research between pediatric cardiologists, pediatric cardiovascular surgeons, and others engaged in the care of patients with the conditions of interest. |
