You can't find the time in your daily practice routine to familiarise with the SCQM patient register or exchange ideas with us? Take the opportunity and visit us at the SGR Congress at our booth (no. 18).

In a short session you can learn about the patient registry and its benefits for your everyday practice. On top of that, two workshops on the topic of ‘VITH & SCQM for the practice - quality work is paid for, register work is rewarded’ will take place, led by Dr Michael Andor.

Dr Catherine Raptis, Deputy Head of Science at the SCQM Foundation, will be happy to show you our services associated with research projects and give you insights into the numerous studies conducted with SCQM data.

19.04.2023: Maelstrom

The Maelstrom metadata catalogue contains record descriptions from 378 global studies, facilitating collaboration in epidemiological research.

As part of the Swiss Personalised Health Network (SPHN) Cohort Consortium, the metadata of the SCQM cohorts (RA, axSpA, PsA, GCA, PMR and pregnancy) are now part of the Maelstrom metadata catalogue. On Maelstrom, researchers can search for data sources for their research projects. Presenting SCQM data on Maelstrom will increase the visibility of the SCQM nationally and internationally and hopefully lead to even more landmark research projects.

What can you do on Maelstrom?
If you want to know more about the data collected in the SCQM yourself, the Maelstrom catalogue can also be an interesting resource for Swiss researchers.
