Area of Science:

Orthopaedic Surgery
Health Informatics
Clinical Data Management

Background:

National databases are crucial for advancing research and quality improvement in major lower-extremity amputations (MLEA).
The Danish Amputation Database (DanAmp) was implemented to centralize and standardize MLEA patient data.
Evaluating the implementation of DanAmp is essential to ensure data reliability for research and clinical practice.

Purpose of the Study:

To assess the completeness and validity of data within the Danish Amputation Database (DanAmp).
To evaluate the effectiveness of DanAmp implementation across three orthopaedic departments.

Main Methods:

Data completeness was assessed by comparing DanAmp registrations against the hospital's electronic system for surgical procedures.
Data validity was determined through an audit of patient records, calculating the percentage agreement for key variables.
Evaluation covered a period from February 1 to June 1, 2024, across three participating departments.

Main Results:

DanAmp achieved 96% completeness for all registered surgical procedures.
An audit of 43 patient records showed that 29 out of 35 variables exceeded the 90% agreement threshold for satisfactory validity.
These findings indicate a high level of data accuracy and completeness.

Conclusions:

The Danish Amputation Database (DanAmp) demonstrates high data completeness and satisfactory validity.
DanAmp's reliable data supports its potential for driving significant research advancements and quality improvements for patients with major lower-extremity amputations.
The study validates DanAmp as a robust tool for national health data collection in this patient group.
