European multicentre studies in the field of obstetrics.
Within Europe a number of multinational, multicentre studies are performed in the field of Obstetrics and Gynaecology. Many of these are funded by the European Community. Unfortunately, concise information on currently ongoing European multicentre studies is not easily obtainable. There is no particular central information point. The current overview aims to provide insight in obstetrical EC/European multicentre studies which recently have been finished, are ongoing or have been planned for the near future. The various projects are described, and information on the number of participants, the research period, the responsible project leader and framework of each project is summarized in tables. A list with the addresses of the project leaders and/or contact persons in the EC member states is added. The paper hopes to facilitate researchers and institutes involved in Obstetrics within Europe to make easier contacts and to promote collaboration on the international level.
