MULTIPROFESSIONAL ELECTRONIC PROTOCOL FOR DIGESTIVE SURGERY VALIDATION

Area of Science:

• Medical Informatics
• Surgical Research
• Epidemiology

Background:

• Computerized clinical databases enhance prospective data collection for credible scientific studies.
• Standardized data management is crucial for efficient and high-quality medical research.
• Integrating diverse patient data streamlines research processes.

Purpose of the Study:

• To validate a unified, multidisciplinary master protocol for digestive system surgery data within the SINPE© platform.
• To prospectively collect and analyze clinical data for digestive disease incidence.
• To establish a comprehensive digital infrastructure for digestive surgery research.

Main Methods:

• Consolidated and standardized existing data within the SINPE© database into a single software.
• Developed the MIGRASINPE© module to computerize the theoretical basis of the protocol.
• Created a unified, multiprofessional master protocol for integrated data collection.

Main Results:

• Successfully unified and adapted specific protocols for prevalent digestive diseases.
• Enabled multiprofessional data integration (medicine, nursing, physiotherapy, nutrition, health management).
• Collected 4,281 prospective datasets, with the extrahepatic biliary tract (1,786) and esophagus (1,015) being most frequent.

Conclusions:

• Validated the unification and prospective structuring of digestive surgery clinical data in a single master protocol.
• The epidemiological study successfully identified the most prevalent digestive diseases.
• The multiprofessional approach enhances data quality and research efficiency in digestive surgery.
