Formation of the Scandinavian Obesity Surgery Registry, SOReg

Abstract: Using this systematic approach, it has been possible to cover >99% of all bariatric surgery, cross-matching our data with nation-wide registries for in-hospital care, cause of death, and permitting regular nation-wide audit. Several scientific studies have used, or are using, what seems to be the most comprehensive database in obesity surgery.

“…Moreover, SOReg-data has been found to be reliable with a very low risk for incorrect values, when systematically validated, or continuously searched for non-logic or unlikely values 7 . To counter the 45% follow-up rate in SOReg a cross-reference was done with the PDR allowing 100% follow-up of medically treated comorbid diseases.…”

“…1.2% leaks) and mortality are low (0.04%), the latter validated with the Swedish Population Register. Regular audits are performed by randomly comparing data in SOReg with patient charts at the surgical centers, demonstrating a high validity with less than 2% incorrect values 7 . Furthermore, by crosslinkage with the national Prescribed Drug Registry (PDR) a 100% follow-up of the occurrence of comorbid disease (defined as medical treatment) can be achieved.…”

“…Data are collected prospectively at the time of surgery, at 6 weeks and at 1, 2 and 5 years postoperatively. The registry has been described elsewhere [12], and in the operative module, the length and number of cartridges used to the construct the pouch size are entered, as a non-compulsory variable. The SOReg database has been validated, and more than 98 % of entered data were correct [11].…”
