Abstract:
Since 1996, the Geneva Arthroplasty Registry at the University Hospitals of Geneva (HUG) has been collecting, archiving and disseminating relevant high-quality information on primary total hip and knee arthroplasties and revision procedures performed at the Division of Orthopaedics and Traumatology. Patients are followed throughout their lifetime with the prosthesis. The registry has been essential to better understand and subsequently improve the care of patients with hip and knee replacements. It will continue to fulfil its mission and to work towards an even more effective transfer of the knowledge obtained to all stakeholders and as well as towards its implementation.
