Besides clinical and genetic data of patients with PID, quality indicators in patient care are included. Methods: Data are systematically collected in the Department of Allergology, Rheumatology and Clinical Immunology in collaboration with physicians of different specialities. Results: An increasing number and spectrum of PID are recognised in Slovenia. After the es - tablishment of a Slovene multidisciplinary group for PID care in 2007, thorough immunological and genetic diagnostics, subcutaneous immuno - globulin replacement and treatment of PID by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation were introduced in routine clinical practice in Slove - nia. Increased medium age of PID patients re - flects improved survival and better recognition of PID in adults. Conclusions: According to the data in compa - rable registries, percentages of patients with pre - dominantly antibody deficiencies and comple - ment deficiencies are low and high, respectivelyTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaSlovensko zdravniško društvo
