International Collaborative Gaucher Group (ICGG) Gaucher Disease Registry & Pregnancy Sub-registry
This study, called the ICGG Gaucher Registry, is an ongoing international project that keeps track of how Gaucher disease affects people in their daily lives. Doctors collect information on patients' health and care as part of their routine check-ups. Nobody receives experimental treatments; it's all about observing real-world outcomes. The main goals are to better understand Gaucher disease, improve patient care guidelines, learn more about different types of patients, and see how long-term medicines like imiglucerase and eliglustat work. There's also a special part of the study for pregnant women with Gaucher disease. This helps doctors understand how pregnancy affects women with Gaucher disease and how their babies grow and develop after birth.

यह अध्ययन किस बारे में है?
Imagine a big, ongoing health diary for people with Gaucher disease from around the world. That's essentially what the International Collaborative Gaucher Group (ICGG) Gaucher Disease Registry is. It's not a study where you try new medicines; instead, doctors simply record information about your health and the care you're already receiving as part of your regular check-ups. The main idea is to gather a lot of information over time to help doctors and researchers understand Gaucher disease better. This includes seeing how the condition can differ from person to person, how it progresses, and how current treatments are working in the long run.
The information collected helps medical experts create better recommendations for monitoring patients and provide reports that can improve overall patient care. Think of it as a shared learning experience for the global medical community. It also helps to understand the full range of people living with Gaucher disease and to evaluate how well certain long-term medications, like imiglucerase and eliglustat, are truly working over many years.
There's also a special part of this registry called the Gaucher Pregnancy Sub-registry. This is specifically for women with Gaucher disease who are pregnant or have been pregnant. The goal here is to carefully track how pregnancies progress, any complications that might arise, and how the babies grow and develop after they're born. Again, no experimental treatments are given; doctors just record the standard care and outcomes. This helps gather crucial information to better support women with Gaucher disease during pregnancy and ensure the best possible start for their babies.

कौन पात्र हो सकता है?
Nearly anyone with a confirmed diagnosis of Gaucher disease can be part of the main study. This means you would have had tests that show a lack of a specific enzyme (beta-glucocerebrosidase) or a change in a particular gene associated with the disease. Your doctor would need to get your permission to share your health information for the study.
If you are a woman with Gaucher disease and are pregnant, or have been pregnant, you might also be able to join the special pregnancy part of the study. You would need to already be part of the main Gaucher Registry. You would also need to sign a consent form, giving your permission for your information to be collected.
There are no specific reasons that would stop someone from taking part in either the main study or the pregnancy study, as long as they meet the basic requirements mentioned above.
क्या यह अध्ययन आपके लिए उपयुक्त हो सकता है?
यह देखने के लिए इन त्वरित प्रश्नों का उत्तर दें कि क्या आप पात्र हो सकते हैं। यह केवल एक मार्गदर्शिका है — अंतिम निर्णय शोध टीम द्वारा लिया जाता है।.
- Do I have a confirmed diagnosis of Gaucher disease?
- Am I willing to allow my doctor to share my health information?
- If pregnant or previously pregnant, am I currently in the main Gaucher Registry?
- If pregnant or previously pregnant, am I willing to sign a consent form for the pregnancy sub-study?
भागीदारी में क्या शामिल है?
Taking part in this study is generally designed to fit into your existing medical care. You won't be given any experimental treatments; you'll continue to receive your usual care as decided by your doctor. Your participation means that your doctor will share information about your health, your condition, and any treatments you receive with the registry. This data comes from your routine clinic visits and assessments.
If you join the pregnancy sub-registry, information about your medical history, your pregnancy journey (including birth details), will be collected. If you agree, data about your baby's growth and health will also be collected up to when they are three years old. The total duration of your participation is ongoing, as the registry tracks health over many years, but your involvement is always voluntary.

क्या मेरी व्यक्तिगत जानकारी गोपनीय रखी जाती है?
Yes, your personal and medical information will be kept confidential and handled very carefully to protect your privacy.
What if I get pregnant while already in the study?
If you are a woman with Gaucher disease already in the main study and become pregnant, you could then choose to join the special pregnancy sub-registry, if it is still active.
