Living With Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (Formerly COVID-PCD)
Living with PCD (formerly COVID-PCD) is a participatory research project that aims to answer emerging questions about primary ciliary dyskinesia (PCD) in order to improve the health and quality of life of people with PCD. Persons with confirmed or suspected PCD from anywhere in the world can participate. The study is advertised through patient support groups and participants register online after they read detailed information about the study. Participants receive a detailed questionnaire when they start the study and a follow-up questionnaire (planned once per year). Occasionally, participants receive extra questionnaires focused on special topics. The study is hosted at the University of Bern and recruitment started on May 30th, 2020.
