Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
Endpoint of this project is the reclassification of the selected fractures by an in-house group of experts in order to be able to carry out a subsequent statistical evaluation. It is analyzed whether there are significant deviations between the classifications of the expert group and the fracture database.
Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
This database was created with the research software REDCap and is used for internal quality measurement. It essentially consists of three instruments: the encoded patient data, the diagnosis and the therapy. In order to promote rapid digitized progress in the health care system, the quality of the recorded data must be checked regularly through suitable studies. This type of quality management is of essential scientific relevance for the fracture database of the University Hospital Basel. For this reason, the classifications of the recorded fractures in the database are to be examined on a random basis so that weak points in the system can be addressed and staff can be better trained. The primary goal of the project is to measure the accuracy of the classifications of the distal radius fracture in the fracture database. The evaluation of the extracted data analyzes the validity of the fracture classifications that the medical staff carry out in everyday clinical practice.

Data analysis: Accuracy measurement of the classifications of the distal radius fracture in the fracture database.
An expert panel (3 in-house experienced specialists) carries out a new fracture classification based on the anonymous radiological images in the interface of the REDCap fracture database. The degree of discrepancy between the expert panel and the database in fracture classifications is analyzed. By evaluating the extracted data, it is analyzed how valid the quality of the collected fracture classifications are, which the medical staff carry out in everyday clinical practice.
