Data Collection
We Need Your Help!
The Registry is populated with information through the contributions of various people from around the world. These individuals have established expertise in relevant outcome measures; having either developed them or used them in their work/research. So, if you have expertise pertaining to an outcome measure that was developed for or is potentially applicable to neuromuscular disease, we'd like to hear from you...
How Can You Help?
Adding a Stage 2, 3 or 4 Record!
Records are entered into ROM using an on-line form. This may take as little as 15 minutes for a stage 2 record, up to an hour or two for more comprehensive records (i.e. stage 3, 4). If you have the necessary knowledge we welcome all contributions, be they:
* the creation of new records;
* supplementation of existing records; and/or
* identification of potential errors for investigation and correction.
Adding a Stage 1 Record
If you are pushed for time you may still be able to help. A stage 1 record only requires 3 pieces of information:
- Official Name of the OM (plus abbreviation if applicable);
- A brief description of the OM (e.g. A functional scale designed for use in SMA Type I); and
- A source reference (i.e. key reference, validation reference, or official website).
To make it even simpler, you can email the information to the Registry Co-ordinator and they will enter the information for you.
