This paper describes the establishment of the first national shoulder arthroplasty registry in Russia at the Vreden National Medical Research Center of Traumatology and Orthopedics, initiated in 2024, to monitor surgical interventions, postoperative complications, and treatment outcomes. The registry aims to address the current lack of systematic data collection on shoulder arthroplasty in Russia, which hinders the analysis of complications and the improvement of surgical techniques. The registry will collect data on implant survival, clinical outcomes, and patient-reported measures.
The establishment of a national shoulder arthroplasty registry in Russia will provide crucial data for monitoring long-term outcomes, identifying risk factors, and comparing surgical approaches, ultimately improving the quality of care for patients undergoing shoulder arthroplasty.
Background. Shoulder arthroplasty is a key surgical intervention aimed at restoring function and decreasing pain in patients with various pathologies of shoulder. Currently, there is an increasing demand for such interventions. Despite the development of surgical techniques, complications remain a significant issue and often require revision surgeries. The lack of a national shoulder arthroplasty registry in Russia limits the ability to effectively analyze and address these complications. The purpose of this study is to explore existing registries and develop a system for monitoring patients after shoulder arthroplasty. Results. National registries for joint arthroplasty, implemented in foreign countries, have proven valuable for monitoring long-term outcomes, identifying risk factors, and comparing surgical approaches. These registries collect data on implant survival, clinical outcomes, and patient-reported measures, providing essential information for improving surgical methods and patient care. Since 2024, the Vreden National Medical Research Center of Traumatology and Orthopedics has implemented a shoulder arthroplasty registry designed to systematically collect and analyze data on surgical interventions, postoperative complications, and treatment outcomes. Conclusion. The developed shoulder arthroplasty registry will ultimately improve the quality of medical care for patients by developing rational treatment approaches, enabling early detection of complications, and ensuring adequate long-term monitoring of treatment outcomes.
