1999-2006 Experiences after 8 years

THE REGISTER • It is owned by SSAS. • Will change plattform to get an internet report solution. • Cooperation with the NKO.
REGISTER AIM: • Earlier identification of problems. • Obtain results for: • Designe • Technique • Diagnose
REPORTS • Simple, 2 minutes. (Internet in 2007) • 5-year follow-up by mail. • WOOS, EQ-5D.
WOOS-SCORE • Well documented. • Diagnose-specific. • Patient self-evaluating. • Validation in Swedish. • The same score in Denmark.
PROBLEMS • Missing information <5% • Missing reports <10% • Trauma-surgeons? • Local organisation! • Uncertain comparison! • 2 Hospitals do not report!
The Swedish Shoulder Arthroplasty Register.1999-2006 5year follow-up by WOOS-score in 616 primary shoulder arthroplasties.
AIM: • To examine the functional outcome of primary shoulder arthroplasties that were reported to the Swedish National Registry. • This was conducted as a self evaluation with a WOOS-score. • 5 years after surgery.
MATERIAL: • All patients with a report of a shoulder arthroplasty to the Swedish National Registry is asked to complete a WOOS score 5 years after the reported surgery. • The registry started in 1999, and until 2001, 1238 primary shoulder arthroplasties were reported.
5 YEAR WOOS-SCORE • 616 patients from 42 different hospitals completed the mailed WOOS-score and returned it to the register by mail during 2004-2006. • The WOOS score i presented as a percentage of a normal shoulder function.
RESULTS: • The WOOS score was calculated for different patient selections. • Males were fewer (n=170) but had a higher median WOOS score of 73,5% compared to females (n=446) 62%.
RESULTS: • Nonunion n=15, WOOS 38% • Osteonekrosis n=20, WOOS 53,5% • Cuff arthropaty n=24, WOOS 57,5% • Reumatoid arthritis n=146, WOOS 62% • Fractures n=197, WOOS 65% • Secondary arthrosis n=31, WOOS 66% • Osteoarthrosis n=141, WOOS 79%
RESULTS: • Comparing different concepts by the median WOOS score: • Hemi arthroplasty (n=516, WOOS 64%) • Total arthroplasty (n=75, WOOS 81%)
5-YEARS SATISFACTION One question on patient satisfaction after 5 years was also asked.
IMPLANTS • A majority of the implants used at the beginning 1999 now is out of market or has a changed design 2007.
CONCLUSION: • The Swedish Shoulder Arthroplasty Register now is beginning to produce results from a 5 year follow-up. • The follow-up rate of 50% is not yet enough, but the results will still be able to give an indication of what result to expect from a shoulder arthroplasty in different patient selections.
FURTHER ANALYSIS: • Analysis will also be made between different implants and hospitals in the next years. • Change in design of the implants will result in new entities for the analysis.
