Why take the Rare Barometer Survey? Living with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) presents unique challenges that can impact various aspects of life. To better understand and address these challenges, EURORDIS – a European Organisation for Rare Diseases – has launched a significant initiative: the Rare Barometer Survey titled “Impact on Living with a Rare Disease.” This survey is a crucial tool that aims to gather insights directly from patients and their families to inform policymakers, healthcare providers, and the broader community about the real-world impacts of rare diseases like HHT.

ABOUT RARE BAROMETER SURVEY INITIATIVE

Rare Barometer is a survey initiative that robustly collects the experiences and opinions of people living with a rare disease and their close family members on topics that directly affect them. 

This programme is run independently by EURORDIS-Rare Diseases Europe and is a not-for-profit initiative. It conducts one to three studies each year and hosts a survey panel of more than 20,000 people who agreed to receive email invitations to participate in surveys and studies conducted by EURORDIS-Rare Diseases Europe. 

The objective is to transform the opinions and experiences of people living with a rare disease and their close family members into facts and figures that can be shared with a wider public and with decision-makers.
