The proper diagnosis and treatment of sarcoidosis is difficult given that the disease affects each person differently and little is known about its causes. WISE is a research study designed to gain more information about the characteristics and clinical course of sarcoidosis in order to help physicians and researchers better understand and treat the disease. We will be gathering information from a large number of sarcoidosis patients located all around the world using a web-based survey.
If you agree to participate, we will ask you to fill-out an initial survey. You will also be asked to fill-out an additional survey every six months. The surveys contain questions about exposures and occupations, family history, and medical tests. We also ask you to describe the ways in which sarcoidosis has affected your quality of life and your relationships. You can easily enter all of this information, at your convenience, using this secure website. All information collected is completely confidential and will not be revealed to anyone outside of the research team.
We greatly appreciate your time to assist the WorldwIde Sarcoidosis REsearch Study.
