: The Adelphi Real World CH Disease Specific Programme (DSP)™ is a market research study conducted under the European Pharmaceutical Market Research Association (EphMRA) Code of Conduct, which states, “Market Research relating to market or consumer behaviour of the sort that pharmaceutical companies routinely commission, whether involving healthcare professionals, patients, carers or members of the public, does not require Clinical Research Ethics Committee approval,” and as such it did not require ethics committee approval [ ]. Each survey was performed in full accordance with relevant legislation at the time of data collection, including the Declaration of Helsinki (1964) and its later amendments. This research was submitted to the Pearl Institutional Review Board, and a waiver was obtained. Using a checkbox, patients provided informed consent to take part in the survey. Data were collected in such a way that patients and physicians could not be identified directly [ ].
