Help Solve the Puzzle of Hypersomnia

9/13/2016

0 Comments

 
The Hypersomnia Foundation Board of Directors and volunteers worked for more than two years with physicians and researchers to create a hypersomnia-specific registry. That of hypersomnia patients is now ready for YOU to join, and the Hypersomnia Foundation will donate $50 to research for every person who completes the Hypersomnia Foundation Patient Registry Questionnaire during the month of September!

Why are registries so important?
Registries provide critical information, particularly about rare diseases. Uncovering that information makes a rare disease easier to study, increasing the probability that a treatment can be developed.
Typically, people with rare disorders are not geographically in the same place, making it difficult for scientists and medical professionals to gather information or samples from enough patients to study a rare disorder. However, a central registry helps to overcome that geography hurdle
​
Why would I take the time and use my limited energy to enroll in the registry and complete the questionnaires?
  • Your participation today will provide a brighter future for tomorrow. And don’t forget, it will help to fund research through the Hypersomnia Foundation Board of Director’s $50 contribution for every completed questionnaire. Your participation will also provide concrete help to researchers looking for answers.
  • The information about the central disorders of hypersomnolence will be housed in one location, accessible to any researcher anywhere in the world whose project is valid and approved by the Sanford Institutional Review Board.
  • One of the goals of a registry is to generate a hypothesis (a scientifically based idea) about which treatments might be effective. These hypotheses can assist the pharmaceutical industry (drug companies) to know which treatments to study in clinical trials.
  • Researchers who are interested in studying new treatments for hypersomnia can contact CoRDS, and CoRDS will then contact people who have checked the box during registry enrollment that they are interested in participating in additional research.

Visit the new Hypersomnia Foundation Registry page to complete the form.
