The Princess Maxima Center for Pediatric Oncology based in Utrecht, the Netherlands, is launching a long-term collaboration with two paediatric oncology centres in Bulgaria: Tsaritsa Yoanna – ISUL in Sofia and UMHAT Sveti Georgi in Plovdiv, South Central Bulgaria, the Dutch organization reported on its website on Friday. By sharing knowledge and experience and strengthening collaboration, the centres aim to improve care and quality of life for children with cancer in Bulgaria.
Staff from the Maxima Center will travel to Bulgaria to share knowledge and experience. In turn, Bulgarian healthcare professionals will visit the Maxima Center for training. Maxima’s goal is to support the Bulgarian hospitals in developing research and establishing standardized patient data recording, as this would help evaluate treatments and improve long-term monitoring of children. “This is a big step forward as the care currently is very fragmented,” the Dutch institution said.
Maxima reported: “In Bulgaria, an estimated 150 children are diagnosed with cancer each year. Together, the hospitals in Sofia and Plovdiv treat approximately 80% of these children. The hospital in Sofia treats children under the age of 18, while the hospital in Plovdiv treats children and young adults up to the age of 25. Bulgarian Minister of Health Katya Ivkova has expressed her support for establishing a pediatric oncology center of excellence in Sofia.”
