The UCC-CVRM component aims to provide care to all new cardiovascular patients in accordance with the Dutch Cardio-Vascular Risk Management (CVRM) guideline. At the end of 2019 4,140 patients participated in the cohort. Sixty percent of the participating patients in UCC have given permission for participation in scientific research and for extra blood collection for the biobank. From 90% of this group information is received via questionnaires and measurements. All the required data for almost 80% is present (complete CVRM lab). Obviously there is a commitment to complete the data in the database. The UCC-CVRM database is in 2018 enriched with routine care data of general practitioners and the Pharmaceutical Key Figures Foundation (medication prescriptions).
In the COVID-19 period (2020-2021), enrollment was reduced dramatically and the logistical approach of UCC-CVRM approach was evaluated. That resulted in a re-design of the logistics around UCC-CVRM. We separated routine care from targeted research. That meant that in its present form UCC-CVRM extracts CVRM data collected in routine clinical practice from the electronic health records in all patients seen for the first time in the UMCU for evaluation of a cardiovascular condition. Informed consent is obtained through an entirely in an entirely digitally manner through the patient portal. Furthermore, information from the cardiovascular questionnaire is obtained in a similar manner entirely digital through the portal. A blood sample will be obtained from a 10% sample of those who provided an informed consent.
