We are excited to share that the Healing and Empowerment Actions for Recovery from Trauma (HEART) trial has received a five-year, $16.6 million award from the Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI).
The HEART trial will test a new approach to trauma recovery that prioritizes both physical and psychological healing. While traditional care often focuses on visible injuries, this study will integrate support for mental health, anxiety, and caregiver well-being alongside orthopaedic recovery.
