CF european regisrty started in Athens!

 

After much effort, the european registry of Cystic Fibrosis patients is underway in Athens, while CF centers at Thessaloniki are already participating since 2007. Our goal is that basic registration will be completed by November, in time for the results to be included in the global country registry of 2015!

More on our efforts so far on this link

 

The patient registry, apart from being a very important tool for doctors, is often a prerequisite for patients participating in clinical trials.

 

In particular:

Adult patients at Sismanoglio hospital

after communicating with Dr Kotsyfas, will be able to register daily during 10am-1pm. Please contact CF unit’s secretary office for more information (00302132058408).

Children at Agia Sofia hospital

will be in communication with Dr Kaditis and their doctors accordingly.

 

 

In more detail:

Registration is annual. Our effort now involves the 2014 registration, and later in January we will focus on 2015, having more time to work on it
