Development of Core Outcomes for Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD) Interventions- Caregivers' Perspective
Development of Core Outcomes for Age-related Macular Degeneration (AMD)
This study will explore experience of AMD caregivers in order to develop a core outcome set (COS) for age related macular degeneration (AMD) randomised controlled trials (RCTs) trying to capture what research outcomes are important from their perspective.
People 18 years of age and older who have been AMD caregivers for at least 6 months may be eligible for this study.
The aim is to conduct three focus groups lasting approximately one hour. The plan is to enrol 18-24 participants (6-8 participants per each of 3 focus groups).Two researchers will be involved in conducting the focus groups. A moderator will ensure fluid discussion, while the second investigator will be taking notes and audio-recording the discussion.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Number of potential COS (core outcome set) elements for AMD randomised controlled trials as assessed by the focus group discussions.
Time Frame: up to 60 minutes
|
The expected list of COS (core outcome set) elements will plausibly include some of the visual function or anatomical measures as well as aspects of the quality of life.
This study is a qualitative research study.
No interventions will be given to the participants.
No questionnaire or scale will be administered.
The focus group discussions will aim to explore opinions of caregivers on outcomes used in AMD trials.
Repeating themes of the discussions will be captured to form a potential COS for AMD trials.
