RUDRA Registry (Real-World Clinical Registry for Patients With Recurrent Pericarditis)

А multicenter, non-interventional real world clinical registry of patients with recurrent pericarditis.

The main goal of the registry is to epidemiologically assess the pattern, clinical outcomes, and approaches to therapy in patients with recurrent pericarditis.

А multicenter, non-interventional real world clinical registry of patients with recurrent pericarditis.

The main goal of the registry is to epidemiologically assess the pattern, clinical outcomes, and approaches to therapy in patients with recurrent pericarditis.

This goal can best be achieved through a registry of real clinical practice. Epidemiologic assessment of the structure will be possible due to the retrospective part of the registry and will give an idea of the etiology of RP in the Russian Federation, as well as allow to identify a subpopulation of patients with idiopathic recurrent pericarditis and study it in more detail. The prospective branch involves three-year dynamic follow-up of patients with already diagnosed and newly diagnosed IRP. Based on the data obtained during the retro- and prospective parts of the registry, it will be possible to evaluate clinical outcomes and approaches to therapy in patients with recurrent pericarditis, which may become valuable material for assessing the real clinical situation in the Russian Federation, as well as deepen knowledge on the diagnosis and management of this cohort of patients.

3. lack of possibility of screening examination and dynamic follow-up;
4. Organ/tissue transplantation less than 5 years prior to study inclusion or debut of pericarditis;
