The aim of this network is to collaborate, exchange experiences and expand possibilities for international research in this area, in order to improve the quality of care. Comparing out-of-hours care across countries can give useful feedback and can be a source of inspiration.

EuroHOPE - European Health Care Outcomes, Performance and Efficiency - evaluates the performance of European health care systems in terms of outcomes, quality, use of resources and costs. The project focuses on five important disease groups: acute myocardial infarction (AMI), ischemic stroke, hip fracture, breast cancer and very low birth weight and very preterm infants (VLBWI).

The main goal of this project is to advance knowledge of policies that have the highest potential to enhance health and health equity across European regions with particular focus on metropolitan areas.

DRG-systems aim at fairly assessing the costs of patient treatment, taking into account measurable patient characteristics such as diagnosis or comorbidity – but to a varying degree also interventions chosen.

The aim of the Euro-DEN project is to develop a network of sentinel centres in Europe collecting data on acute recreational drug/NPS toxicity to address this public health gap.

The aim of the project is to develop a European network of all the players active in the area of dementia to jointly develop consensual indicators and to develop an ongoing dialogue between these actors to identify ways of developing synergies and a closer collaboration on a European level. 

Goal was to develop health indicators and recommendations for monitoring the burden and distribution of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Manual of Operations for the implementation of population-based registers of acute myocardial infarction/acute coronary syndrome, stroke and of CVD surveys was the main result. 

Therefore, the aims of the EUROCISS project were:

• to define indicators for monitoring CVD
• to recommend standardized methods for collecting indicators in EU countries
• to prepare manuals of operations describing in detail procedures and methods for easy implementation of population-based registers and CVD surveys.

To remedy major inequalities in cancer, by improving information and knowledge on cancer using the unique tools of comparison and solidarity in the EU27, and form the pillars of a EU cancer control strategy.

Gathers, validates, analyses and disseminates data on Congenital Anomalies and its determinants at country level and regional level in EU Countries. Promotes data use in collaborative research projects.
To provide essential epidemiological information on congenital anomalies in Europe.
To facilitate the early warning of new teratogenic exposures.
To act as an information and resource center for the population, health professionals and managers regarding clusters or exposures or risk factors of concern.
To evaluate the effectiveness of primary prevention.
To assess the impact of developments in prenatal screening.
To provide a ready collaborative network and infrastructure for research related to the causes and prevention of congenital anomalies and the treatment and care of affected children.
To act as a catalyst for the setting up of registries throughout Europe collecting comparable, standardised data.
