GRIP ON NASH
To assist professionals in early recognition of NASH-patients at risk, Julius Clinical has designed
‘Global Research Initiative for Patients screening on NASH’ (GRIP on NASH).
One of the greatest challenges when dealing with NAFLD/NASH is early recognition of patients at risk. For this purpose several strategies have been suggested by international scientific organizations. However, implementation of a structured patient care pathway in which primary care physicians and specialists work together, has not been set in most countries.
GRIP on NASH is a multinational program in which patients at risk (with diabetes mellitus, obesity, hypertension or the metabolic syndrome) will be screened for the presence of NAFLD and NASH. In 10 European countries, primary care physicians and specialists hepatologists, endocrinologists, diabetologists will work closely together to screen 10,000 patients using non-invasive tests (blood sampling and Fibroscan) setting up a databank with detailed information on each individual patient.

Julius Clinical has established a scientific steering committee of internationally well-known key opinion leaders who will be involved in GRIP on NASH from the very beginning.
In this way Julius Clinical & NASH Clinical will help to get a better GRIP on NASH. For additional information please download the GRIP on NASH Factsheet here or contact us. |
