BCR Datasets - Important Notice 29th January 2010

  

Two changes have been made to the prostatectomy operation and follow up datasets and if you are bulk importing data you should ensure these changes are made to your extracts before running further imports.

The changes can be seen here: Change to prostatectomy datasets

 

The new web based database launched in June is now well established with many members successfully entering data into all the Section of Oncology audits including the nephrectomy audit that was combined with the Section of Endourology dataset in January 2009 and all historical data has been imported into the new system.

 

Since January 1st 2010 the only method for returning data (for on-line audits) is via the web-based program. Any paper forms submitted to Sarah Fowler after this date will be returned to sender.

 

 Login to the new system here: https://audits.baus.org.uk

 

Since many trusts have their own systems for collecting data we have provided the facility for data to be uploaded in "bulk” format. If you are using this method you must ensure that your data is of good quality, includes the correct consultant and centre id's and is uploaded to the correct dataset.(File guidance and format for all datasets currently on-line can be downloaded below)

 

Should it prove impracticable to enter data directly onto the system, for whatever reason, paper proformas have just been released for in-house use only and can be downloaded below. Please do NOT return these forms to BAUS as they will be returned. (Usage is discouraged to avoid duplication of effort).

 

Data collection for the minimally invasive treatments audit should continue to be made using the paper proformas that can be downloaded below or in electronic format conforming to the downloadable specification and will transfer to the web-based database once an adequate assessment period has passed.

 

 Please return all data for minimally invasive audit using the following secure e-mail address: sarahfowler2@nhs.net
