ERN Registry
Paediatric Transplantation European Registry (PETER) is a new rational, efficient, interoperable, open, accessible paediatric transplant registry for all type of paediatric transplantation. PETER will allow generating real world evidence monitoring by the identification of common outcomes for all types of transplant. This registry can be used as a model to support care and research for the benefit of patients, improvement of the transplanted patient healthcare, their life expectancy and long-term QoL of children and their families.
Training Activities
ERN Monitoring

Once positively assessed and approved, the ERNs are expected to perform and fulfil their goals and criteria and to be evaluated at least every five years.
