Client information Peridos

 

Peridos: your data will be stored

Like all other ultrasound screening centres in the Netherlands, Het Palet supplies data to Peridos. Peridos is the national perinatological (pregnancy, childbirth, maternity) database in which data from prenatal screenings is recorded. Peridos contains the data of healthcare providers and healthcare institutions that have a contract with one of the 8 regional centres. These contracts include conducting counselling sessions and carrying out prenatal screening: Anatomy Scan (20-week ultrasound) and nuchal translucency measurement (combination test). Furthermore, care-related data is recorded in order to provide insight into the quality of prenatal screening.

Use of your data

If you decide to take part in the screening, this means that your data will be used for this purpose. This data is needed to be able to make a diagnosis and possibly offer treatment, and to ensure the quality of care. That data is recorded in a database called Peridos. This is a system used by all healthcare providers involved in prenatal screening in the Netherlands. However, only healthcare providers who are involved in your screening can access your data. The system is optimally secured to guarantee your privacy.

The regional centre can also access the data in Peridos. The regional centre coordinates the screening programme and monitors the quality of its implementation by all healthcare providers involved. It is licenced for this by the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Sport (VWS). The screening must meet national quality standards. The regional center monitors quality on the basis of data in Peridos, among other things. The healthcare providers themselves are also involved in quality assurance. Sometimes they have to compare data with each other. Your healthcare provider can give you more information on the protection of your data.

If you wish, your personal data can be deleted from Peridos after the screening. Please tell your obstetrician.

Scientific research

Besides your healthcare providers and the regional centre, nobody can access your personal data. Only anonymous data is used for statistics, for example, how many pregnant women make use of prenatal screening. This means that the data cannot be traced back to you as a person in any way. Not even by those who compile the statistics.

This also applies to scientific research. Scientific research is needed to continuously improve prenatal screening. This is almost always done exclusively with anonymous data. As many precautions as possible have been taken to ensure that the data cannot be traced back to you or your child. In exceptional cases, traceable data is required for scientific research. You don’t want your data to be used in an exceptional case? Please tell your obstetrician.

Of course, your decision will not affect the way you are treated before, during or after the screening.
