New Zealand Cardiac Surgery National Report 2016
This report of the New Zealand National Cardiac Surgery Registry (NZCS) covers the period of 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2016.
The report includes all cardiac surgical procedures undertaken at the 5 District Health Boards (DHBs) performing publicly-funded cardiac surgery in New Zealand (Auckland, Waikato, Capital and Coast, Canterbury, Southern).
This is our second annual report of the National Cardiac surgical services in New Zealand. The report has been an accomplishment for all involved to be proud of. It is encouraging to note that data completeness has improved for 2016 across all units. This is a credit to the time and diligence of all members of the cardiac surgical units at the 5 DHBs. With the implementation of mobile devices in 2017 we expect the processes to become further streamlined. I take this opportunity to thank all the effort of the different teams involved in making this possible at both a National and Local level. The data in itself is a testimony to the quality of cardiac surgical service being provided around the country.
Sapphire Medical Clinics and Dendrite Clinical Systems have launched the UK Medical Cannabis Registry, an initiative that is designed to rapidly expand the evidence base for medical cannabis in the UK and decrease the cost of access for patients. The launch will collect and analyse clinical information on patients taking medical cannabis treatments for all recognised eligible conditions.
“I am very pleased to report that demand for the Dendrite Web-Registry platform has reached an all-time high” Dr Peter Walton, Managing Director of Dendrite Clinical System. “We’re receiving new orders for new national and international registries every few days now – for surgical registries, medical registries, rare disease registries, medical device registries and Coronavirus Registries (for a range of Community, National, International and Global Covid-19 Registries).”
Sapphire Medical Clinics and Dendrite Clinical Systems have established the UK’s first national UK’s first comprehensive medical cannabis patient registry - UK Medical Cannabis Registry. The UK Medical Cannabis Registry will be the first of its kind covering all conditions for which there is evidence of clinical efficacy of medical cannabis. The formation of the registry means that real world evidence, cited as a key barrier to wider patient prescriptions by NHS England, will now be available on request to the medical community for analysis.
