“…Such a dataset can reduce the amount of time collecting data, and thus requires fewer staff for both data collection and analysis. Like the strategy to have a trauma registry champion, evidence of a minimum dataset has been documented in previous publications as well, signaling that several other trauma registries have also made use of this strategy [33][34][35][36] . Identifying such facilitators that work across contexts is a critical step in encouraging trauma registry growth in other settings and should be included in frameworks or trauma registry resources going forward.…”

Background: The implementation of trauma registries has proven a highly effective means of injury control. However, many low and middle-income countries lack trauma registries. Those that have trauma registries vary widely in terms of both implementation and structure. We sought to identify the most common barriers that stand in the way of sustainable trauma registry implementation, and the types of strategies that have proven successful in overcoming these barriers. Methods:We conducted a questionnaire of trauma registry stewards and researchers in LMICs.Results: Twenty-two individuals responded to the questionnaire representing trauma registry experiences across thirteen LMICs. The most common barriers to trauma registry implementation identified included staffing, funding, and stakeholder engagement. Many different strategies for addressing these barriers were discussed. Those mentioned by multiple respondents included the need for a trauma registry champion, fostering strong stakeholder relationships, and improving efficiency of data collection.Conclusions: Though trauma registry implementation and structure may differ from place to place, there are many shared barriers and facilitators that can be learned from. Identifying these common experiences can help create a repository of knowledge that can better serve those looking to implement their own trauma registries in similar settings.

Purpose: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the major causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide, disproportionally affecting low-and middle-income countries (LMICs). Epidemiological characteristics of TBI at a national level are absent for most LMICs including Georgia. This study aimed to establish the registries and assess causes and outcomes in TBI patients presenting to two major trauma hospitals in the capital city-Tbilisi. Patients and Methods: The prospective observational study was conducted at Acad. O. Gudushauri National Medical Center and M. Iashvili Children's Central Hospital from March, 1 through August, 31, 2019. Patients of all age groups admitted to one of the study hospitals with a TBI diagnosis were eligible for participation. Collected data were uploaded using the electronic data collection tool-REDCap, analyzed through SPSS software and evaluated to provide detailed information on TBI-related variables and outcomes using descriptive statistics. Results: Overall, 542 hospitalized patients were enrolled during the study period, about 63% were male and the average age was 17.7. The main causes of TBI were falls (58%) and struck by or against an object (22%). The 97% suffered from mild TBI (GCS 13-15). Over 23% of patients arrived at the hospital more than 1 hour after injury and 25% after more than 4-hours post-injury. Moderate and severe TBI were associated with an increased hospital length of stay. Mortality rate of severe TBI was 54%. Conclusion: This study provides important information on the major epidemiological characteristics of TBI in Georgia, which should be considered for setting priorities for injury management.

Design of Infertility Monitoring System: Minimum Data Set Approach

et al. 2019

Reproductive health is vital for human and infertility is also one of the most important challenges in the reproductive system. Infertility is one of the most common chronic health disorders, regardless of age. The Minimum Data Set (MDS) helps to manage infertility by monitoring and evaluating infertility interventions based on collecting data. The development of MDS is an essential objective in order to implement an infertility monitoring system for the creation of standardized and effective data management through the provision of comprehensive and identical data elements for infertility. This is a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in 2017. The data has been collected from infertility clinics in the world, as well as WHO, CDC, ASRM, and ESHRE reports. In order to decide on data elements, the Delphi technique was used using a questionnaire that contained data elements which were distributed among 12 experts including one reproductive endocrinology and infertility fellow, six obstetrician-gynecologists, two reproductive biologists, two urologists and one community medicine specialist using the 5 point Likert scale. The questionnaire was divided into two categories: managerial and clinical, each with 4 sections, and 60 and 940 data elements, respectively. MDS is an essential tool for evaluating the infertility process. Using this tool will provide an opportunity to develop a set of quality care criteria that can be used to ensure the quality of infertility care.
