Patient and public involvement
VTE
During the grant application stage, online surveys were launched to learn public views on the PETS study. These surveys helped to inform important aspects of the trial, including the number of visits and questionnaires used in the study. Two patient advisors, both with lived experience of VTE, have been involved in the design of the study and review of patient-facing materials. Both were grant coapplicants, have agreed to sit on the TSC, facilitate patient advisory groups, will assist with the dissemination of results and are coauthors of this manuscript.
