Clinical Trials

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to identify families/close friends of Mayo Clinic patients currently hospitalized who may have interest in having the heartbeat of the affected patient recorded prior to their passing and provide this recording back to the family in an edited format. Determine if listening to these soundtracks provides a sense of comfort to family members via completion of a brief, anonymous survey they will receive at the time they receive the recording.
