At each facility, the Carter Centers are conducting specialized clinics for children diagnosed with HPE to gather data, implement programs to meet client and family needs, and evaluate outcomes. The centers are dedicated to the delivery of high quality evaluation.

How to Participate in the International HPE Database
The centers maintain a database of children diagnosed with HPE to assist scientists in investigating the etiology, incidence, signs and symptoms, and current treatments. The data will be available to investigators to test new ideas and treatments that might prove very helpful in the future for patients and their families. To find out more information about the Database, please contact: Nancy Clegg, RN.
