About this trial
An international consortium of leading medical experts in the field of chronic respiratory disease, the research team of Galenus Health and the non-profit organization EUFOREA (European Forum for Research and Education in Allergy and Airway diseases) has been conceived to conduct real-life outcome research. The Galenus Health digital platform consisting of a mobile application for patients and an online dashboard for physicians will be implemented in each of the participating centres. The data will be centralized in a pseudonymized database and will be the basis of the Chronic RhinoSinusitis Outcome Registry.
