Victorian Orthopaedic Trauma Outcomes Registry (VOTOR)

A collaboration between the Alfred Hospital Department of Orthopaedics, the Royal Melbourne Hospital Department of Orthopaedics, and the Department of Epidemiology & Preventive Medicine, Monash University.

The Orthopaedic Trauma Outcomes Registry is a comprehensive registry and database of orthopaedic injuries, treatment, complications and outcomes based on admissions to both Adult Level 1 Trauma Centres.  Outcomes will be recorded using specific injury evaluation tools, and quality of life measurements that are available and have been validated in the orthopaedic literature.  The data will be used to perform regular review of outcomes of all categories of injuries recorded. Treatment options will be compared within the trauma registry patient group. Results will be benchmarked against other published results and predictors of outcomes will be modeled. Complications will be examined to seek alternative low morbidity options.
