The FD/MAS Patient Registry: Your story powers research.
Description
The FD/MAS Patient Registry is an IRB approved research project that allows patients and families to share their experiences with fibrous dysplasia/McCune-Albright syndrome (FD/MAS) by completing a series of surveys.
The surveys were created in collaboration with patients, parents, clinicians and researchers, so that the data can be used to answer some of the most important questions about FD/MAS,
- including
the way the disease develops over time (its "natural history"), the patient experience of the disease, and its impact on quality of life, how and when diagnoses are made, the scope of treatments in use, what surgical techniques work best, and for whom, what other medical interventions work best, and for whom, what social services and therapies are useful, the costs of care to patients and their families, issues that concern patients (such as the impact of pregnancy on FD, or children feeling different and facing stigma), and which research questions and support programs you think are important to fund.
Participation is free and convenient for people with FD/MAS and their legal guardians. You can join today at www.fdmasregistry.org.
