Physical Activity as a Crucial Patient Reported Outcome in COPD (PRO- ACTIVE)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2016,
Physical activity (PA) is essential in maintaining optimal health in chronic diseases, including COPD.More physically active patients have less hospital admissions and better survival. Validated physicalactivity monitors have become available in recent years, and together with patient report of symptomsand distress of physical (in)activity, this may form a potent new Patient Reported Outcome (PRO) ...

EUROmediCAT: Safety of Medication use in Pregnancy in Relation to Risk of Congenital Malformations (EUROMEDICAT)
Start date: Mar 1, 2011, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
A variety of complementary approaches are needed to evaluate safety of medicine use in pregnancy. To evaluate safety in relation to teratogenicity (capacity to cause malformations), population-based congenital anomaly registers, which are already networked across Europe (EUROCAT) with a common database, can provide a cost-effective mechanism which is as yet underexploited. The enormous population ...

Translational Research on Combating Antimicrobial Resistance (TROCAR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2012,
"The health care systems of most European countries are based on a continuum from acute care hospitals, though other health care facilities to the community. Such a framework provides the perfect opportunity for the wide-spread dissemination of high-risk resistant clones or genetic resistant elements. The driving concept of TROCAR is to investigate the fundamentals of the epidemiology of new high ...

Clinical Continuity by Integrated Care (Homecare)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
Our comprehensive approach to clinical continuity by integrated care (IC) across the secondary-primary interface departs from a preliminary literature review selecting frequent chronic conditions (CC) as stroke, COPD and HF as our focus areas. However, within each of these areas IC is a small activity, still, requiring more basic research. As IC for these different CC are based on the same patient ...

Stem Cell Expansion - Expansion and engraftment of haematopoietic and mesenchymal stem cells (STEMEXPAND)
Start date: Nov 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"Serious disorders of the blood system, particularly malignant blood disorders and genetic diseases can be effectively treated by blood and marrow transplantation. Despite considerable success with this treatment modality during the last decades, lack of suitable donors, engraftment failure and graft versus host disease remain serious problems that need to be addressed. This project aims to addres ...
