These data allow researchers to evaluate drug use in the inpatient and outpatient settings, including hospital use patterns, switching behavior, combination therapy and patient characteristics.
The Singapore Renal Registry (SRR) started capturing patients with chronic kidney disease stage 5 (CKD5) since 1999. In 2007, the Singapore General Hospital, which contributes about 50% of the new CKD5 cases each year, started to provide the SRR their list of patients with eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73m2. The SRR receives CKD5 case notifications from the public hospitals, dialysis centres, kidney transplant centres and private nephrology clinics.
Launched in October 2015, the Public Health Genomics and Precision Health Knowledge Base (PHGKB) is an online, continuously updated, searchable compendium of databases (including a COVID-19 GPH) containing published scientific literature, CDC resources, and other materials that address the translation of genomics and precision health discoveries into improved health care and disease prevention. Specialized PHGKB are subsets related to specific do
The Singapore Myocardial Infarction Registry (SMIR) and the Singapore Stroke Registry (SSR) are two of several databases managed by the National Registry of Diseases Office (NRDO).
The SACT database is a population-based resource of SACT activity reported routinely by National Health Service (NHS) trusts in England. Data are collected since 2012 on the SACT treatments of adult and paediatric patients, delivered in secondary and tertiary settings with the intention of improving survival, delaying further cancer progression or development and improving disease-free or progression-free survival.
The Singapore Cancer Registry (SCR), one of the oldest and most established registries, was set up in 1968 to provide information on cancer trends in Singapore. Over the last 50+ years, SCR, a comprehensive, population-based national cancer registry, has collated data on all cancers by histological diagnosis as well as notification by doctors through clinical assessment in Singapore.
