SECEC aims to facilitate international scientific knowledge exchange and collaboration via national and international multicentric studies

Multicentric studies are research projects conducted across multiple hospitals, regions, or countries, involving surgeons and institutions from diverse healthcare systems.

General template

As the reference European scientific society for shoulder and elbow surgery, SECEC is pleased to provide European researchers with a general template for Multicentric Clinical Studies, in order to help producing robust, widely applicable evidence that improves surgical care, reduces global disparities, and accelerates the safe adoption of innovations.
