IBA MU cooperates with expert medical societies on many research projects and clinical registries. A research database of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of them; this project is guaranteed by the Czech Pneumological and Phthiseological Society of CzMA JEP (Czech Medical Association of J. E. Purkyne).
A recently published article in the International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (IF 2.732) belongs to important outputs of this relatively new project. The online version of the article includes a short video abstract that describes the project itself, its background, design and objectives. The video was created in a mutual cooperation between the University Hospital Hradec Kralove and IBA MU.
