Egyptian Community Arthroplasty Register
- This community Arthroplasty Register is an individual initiative to prospectively document arthroplasty procedures performed from 2007 to date in Cairo
- The register started by one surgeon (Mahmoud A Hafez) and lately was joined by more than 10 surgeons & more than 10 hospitals. The majority of patients were E from 28 different nationalities. The registry proforma designed in 3 pages; pre-, intra- and post-operative and available in printed, electronic Below are sections of THA & TKA operative sheet that can be accessed on this website www.knee-hip.com/arthroplastyRegister.aspx (http://www.knee-hip.com/arthrop In addition, the original implant stickers of all components including cement & screws were attached to the back of the registry sheets. Establishing such a register in this region is very difficult due to lack of funding, low interest in non-clinical research.
- This register is currently self funded but hopefully will be adopted by the ministry of health in future
- Although it is costly now, the registration of more surgeons and hospitals in future will make it more cost effective. Acknowledgements:
