Researchers led by the Clinical Research Unit at the Special Unit for Biomedical Research and Education (SUBRE), Aristotle University of Thessaloniki School of Medicine, Greece, have initiated a randomised control trial (RCT) that will compare minimally invasive extracorporeal circulation (MiECC) with conventional cardiopulmonary bypass (cCPB).
Dendrite Clinical Systems, working in close cooperation with the SCTS and several cardiac centres, has developed a series of ‘Dashboards’ that allow users to access to their unit’s surgical outcomes and compare them to national results in real-time. By uploading their data to the central Dendrite National Cardiac Surgical Registry, individual units or centres can instantly benchmark their results via an on-line database for internal consumption to assist units with their own clinical governance and for auditing purposes.
