With data starting in 2003, the National Ambulatory Care Reporting System (NACRS) provides valuable insights into emergency department (ED) visits and lengths of stay reported by participating provinces and territories in Canada. NACRS collects demographic, administrative, clinical and service-specific data for ED, day surgery and other ambulatory care visits.

The British Association of Dermatologists Biologic Interventions Register (BADBIR) is a national register of all patients receiving biologic therapy for the treatment of psoriasis in the United Kingdom. The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE) has recommended that all patients in the UK receiving these new therapies for Psoriasis should be registered in BADBIR. BADBIR has grown to be the largest psoriasis study of its kind globally.

The main goal of B.R.I.D.G.E. is to profile databases from around the world with the most current information. Therefore, B.R.I.D.G.E. profiles databases as new ones are created. We usually work with each database manager to ensure their database profile is complete and accurate. Although we try to include as many profiles on our web site as possible, we unfortunately cannot profile every database.
Established in January 2015, the Estonian Cancer Screening Register records data on the 3 available population-based cancer screenings in Estonia: breast, cervical and colorectal cancer. While the breast cancer screening started in 2003, and the cervical cancer screening in 2006, the data have been added to ECSR only since 2015, while colorectal cancer screening data in Estonia were added to the register in 2016.
