METEOR aims to:

• Capture patient data and record outcomes over time, showing the visualization of trends
• Provide a central database that can be used for research and publications
• Combine anonymous data with no need for informed consent
• Improve patient care by performing research
• Stimulate international collaborations

 

"Following patients' disease activity and amending treatment accordingly leads to better outcomes. This has been shown unequivocally. Meanwhile, the METEOR database will make such follow up simple."
