The database for patients with epilepsy is a joint project of the University of Mannheim, Germany and the University of Southern Queensland, Australia.
The system offers the possibility to easily access all patient data at a local level, without the need of looking for paper files. Moreover, it allows the collection of anonymous data via the internet. As the number of patients in the database increases, a truly evidence-based evaluation of therapy options will be possible, on the basis of up-to-date primary patient data. This should allow an objective state-of-the-art view of different epilepsies, similar to the large database of pediatric patients with oncologic diseases created in Germany.
The database has been developed only for this purpose, without any involvement or help from the pharmaceutical industry.
The database has been written in English to allow international use. Text can be entered in English, German, French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese.
A brochure is available online. You can choose from a PDF file in either English or German.
The database application is available after registration from the following address:
