Abstract

Background

Periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is the preferred surgical treatment for hip dysplasia. In Denmark, patients undergoing PAO at two orthopaedic departments are registered in a disease registry, the Aarhus PAO-database. This study aimed to validate the Aarhus PAO-database by assessing the registration completeness compared to the Danish National Patient Registry (DNPR).

Materials and methods

Patients registered in the Aarhus PAO-database were compared to patients identified in DNPR as having undergone PAO for hip dysplasia. Further, a random selection of 20 PAO procedures from each registry per year (2014–2021) was validated by comparing the information from the registries to the hospital’s electronic medical records.

Results

Between 2014 and 2021, 1144 PAO procedures were registered in the Aarhus PAO-database and 1150 in DNPR. The overall registration completeness was 94.7% (95% CI: 93.3;95.9) with 1116 PAO proceduresincluded in both datasets. The diagnosis and surgery procedure were verified as hip dysplasia and PAO for all randomly selected patients, and almost all discrepancies were resolved (> 95%), using the medical records.

Conclusion

The Aarhus PAO-database has effectively captured all patients who underwent PAO for hip dysplasia from 2014 to 2021. It appears to be a valid resource for future research as well as for ensuring and improving the quality of hip dysplasia treatment.

奥尔胡斯髋臼周围截骨数据库的验证

髋臼周围截骨术（PAO）是髋关节发育不良的首选手术治疗方法。在丹麦，在两个骨科接受PAO的患者在疾病登记处——奥胡斯PAO数据库中登记。本研究旨在通过评估与丹麦国家患者登记处（DNPR）相比的注册完整性来验证奥胡斯pao数据库。材料和方法将在Aarhus PAO数据库中登记的患者与在DNPR中确认因髋关节发育不良而接受PAO治疗的患者进行比较。此外，通过将登记处的信息与医院的电子病历进行比较，每年（2014-2021年）从每个登记处随机选择20个PAO程序进行验证。结果2014 - 2021年，在Aarhus PAO数据库中登记了1144例PAO手术，在DNPR中登记了1150例。总体注册完整性为94.7% (95% CI: 93.3;95.9)，两个数据集中包括1116例PAO手术。所有随机选择的患者的诊断和手术过程均被证实为髋关节发育不良和PAO，使用医疗记录，几乎所有差异都得到解决（> 95%）。结论：Aarhus PAO数据库有效地捕获了2014年至2021年期间因髋关节发育不良而接受PAO治疗的所有患者。这似乎是一个有效的资源，为未来的研究，以及确保和提高治疗质量的髋关节发育不良。
