This is the Sixth Report of the International Federation for the Surgery of Obesity and Metabolic Disorders ( IFSO ) Global Registry, a collaboration with Dendrite Clinical Systems.
This year’s report contains information from 507,298 operations from 50 contributor countries. Data for this report has been submitted by national registries, regional registries and single-centres. When reviewing the graphs you will note that not every contributor country appears in every graph. This is because sometimes the data are unavailable or because there are fewer than 100 operation records submitted from that country, making the data prone to bias.
Throughout this report, we have sought to highlight data from national / regional registries that we believe capture at least 80% of the patients undergoing metabolic / bariatric surgery in their country. We have chosen to highlight their outcomes as these data are likely to be less prone to bias, and more likely to reflect the activity in their country than national registries with a lower rate of data acquisition and single centres.
Dendrite Clinical Systems and the Society for Cardiothoracic Surgery in the UK are pleased to announce the SCTS Conference News 2022 newspaper is now available to view/download. The newspaper reports a multitude of presentations from the meeting including the latest and the best information on new technologies and techniques in cardio-thoracic surgery.
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.
Dendrite Clinical Systems is delighted to announce the first ever report from New Zealand’s Te Rēhita Mate Ūtaetae - Breast Cancer Foundation National Register. The ground-breaking report, titled, “30,000 voices: Informing a better future for breast cancer in New Zealand,” covers 30,000 patients diagnosed from 2003 to 2019.
