SETPOINT2 Quarterly Newsletter                               July 5, 2017

We are very pleased to introduce the SETPOINT2 newsletter. SETPOINT2 is a research study involving people with stroke and respiratory failure (breathing problems) in the United States and Germany. Look for our SETPOINT2 quarterly newsletter in your inbox to keep you updated on the latest SETPOINT2 developments and milestones. 

 

The United States Research Advisory Committee (RAC) meeting took place on June 28. The RAC is a group of stroke survivors, their family members, clergy, and other patient advocates and stakeholders who support, inform, and advise the study throughout its conduct. The meeting was a great opportunity for sharing and learning.


We will be using this newsletter to facilitate two-way conversation about SETPOINT2, and to report our progress and results.  We hope you enjoy seeing these highlights, and that you will consider responding to these newsletters using the contact information provided.


Thank you for your support and efforts.

Commununication with patients and families is vital to SETPOINT2. We are excited about sharing dialogue and facilitating support.  Our Research Advisory Committee (RAC) is one of the ways we can learn and share information.  Our first US RAC meeting is scheduled for June 28, at the Dana Center located at Maine Medical Center.  Keep an eye out for updates about our meeting, as well as future RAC meetings.  If you would like to contribute information or ask questions, please email us at
