ReMuS (Registry Multiple Sclerosis) is not only a professional tool; it is also a reliable partner in the journey with multiple sclerosis. As the only national registry in the Czech Republic, it focuses on gathering key information about multiple sclerosis and other neuroimmunological diseases. With a strong foundation of collaboration with centers of expertise across the country, its data serve not only the medical community for scientific research, but also patients seeking a better understanding of their disease and treatment options. The goal of the ReMuS registry is to contribute to the continuous improvement of patient care through the provision of key and reliable data and analyses.

Who is behind the ReMuS registry?

How is the data collection done?
Currently, the original data collection system is still in operation, with data sent twice a year from the expert centres via a secure interface to the ReMuS registry. The data collection tool is the specialised database software iMed. In the near future, however, we are preparing to upgrade to a solution that will allow instantaneous data transfer and analysis via one of the most secure platforms of today, Microsoft Azure.
Ethical aspects
Data entry is carried out by trained personnel on the basis of the Informed consent from the patient. Each Informed Consent was prior to being put into practice approved by the Ethics Committee of each of the hospitals participating in the ReMuS registry.
