The Swiss Primary Ciliary Dyskinesia (PCD) Registry is a national patient registry that collects information on diagnosis, symptoms, treatment and follow-up of patients with PCD in Switzerland and provides data for national and international monitoring and research.
Registry-reported information. Elapsed time and enrollment totals alone do not measure study progress or recruitment pace.

Microbiological culture of respiratory samples
Results of microbiology cultures of respiratory samples (sputum, cough swabs, throat swabs, ear swabs, bronchoalveolar lavage) expressed in a qualitative (growth or no growth of pathogens) or semiquantitative way (the type of sample depends on the age of the patient and the clinic the sample was collected).

every 3 months up to 80 years
Chest computed tomography
Radiological findings from chest computed tomography
every 3 months up to 80 years
Sinus computed tomography
Radiological findings from sinus computed tomography
every 3 months up to 80 years
Vital status
Vital status of patient: has the patient died or is he/she still alive and in case of death what was the cause?
every 3 months up to 80 years
Clinical symptoms frequency
Frequency of respiratory symptoms recorded with a patient or parent-reported questionnaire
once a year up to 80 years
