    Area of Science:

    • Vascular Surgery
    • Health Informatics
    • Medical Data Management

    Background:

    • The Upstate New York Vascular Society and the Society for Clinical Vascular Surgery, with 526 members, initiated a collaborative effort.
    • Existing data collection methods were insufficient for large-scale analysis of vascular surgical practices.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop and implement a computerized vascular registry for collating and analyzing data from a large group of vascular surgeons.
    • To identify trends in vascular surgical practice, assess reconstructive success rates, and evaluate proficiency standards on a large-scale and community basis.

    Main Methods:

    • A standard encoding system was developed, utilizing light-sensitive cards for data entry.
    • Electronic processing of collected data was established for analysis.

  • Strategies were implemented to address challenges like inertia, resentment, and inaccurate data entry, ensuring data security.
  • Main Results:

    • The registry has been operational for two years, providing insights into vascular surgery trends.
    • Initial findings highlight discrepancies between registry data and published individual surgical success reports.
    • The system is beginning to reveal trends in surgical practice and required proficiency levels.

    Conclusions:

    • Computerized registries are valuable tools for understanding the broad scope of vascular surgery practice.
    • This system offers a clearer picture of national vascular surgery practices and standards.
    • Addressing data quality and security is crucial for the success of such registries.
