      Burden in the Dutch Breast Implant Registry.

AB  - BACKGROUND: Correct registration of implant characteristics is essential to 
      monitor implant safety within implant registries. Currently, in the nationwide 
      Dutch Breast Implant Registry (DBIR), these characteristics are being registered 
      manually by plastic surgeons, resulting in administrative burden and potentially 
      incorrect data entry. OBJECTIVES: This study evaluated the accuracy of manually 
      registered implant data, possible consequences of incorrect data, and the 
      potential of a Digital Implant Catalog (DIC) on increasing data quality and 
      reducing the administrative burden. METHODS: Manually entered implant 
      characteristics (fill, shape, coating, texture) of newly inserted breast implants 
      in the DBIR, from 2015 to 2019, were compared with the corresponding implant 
      characteristics in the DIC. Reference numbers were employed to match 
      characteristics between the 2 databases. The DIC was based on manufacturers' 
      product catalogs and set as the gold standard. RESULTS: A total of 57,361 DBIR 
      records could be matched with the DIC. Accuracy of implant characteristics varied 
      from 70.6% to 98.0%, depending on the implant characteristic. The largest 
      discrepancy was observed for "texture" and the smallest for "coating." All 
      manually registered implant characteristics resulted in different conclusions 
      about implant performance compared with the DIC (P < 0.01). Implementation of the 
      DIC reduced the administrative burden from 14 to 7 variables (50%). CONCLUSIONS: 
      Implementation of a DIC increases data quality in the DBIR and reduces the 
      administrative burden. However, correct registration of reference numbers in the 
      registry by plastic surgeons remains key for adequate matching. Furthermore, all 
      implant manufacturers should be involved, and regular updates of the DIC are 
      required.
