[Agency] NIH [Project Title] IMPROVING BREAST CANCER SURGERY QUALITY THROUGH A COLLABORATIVE SURGERY DATABASE [Institution] VAN ANDEL RESEARCH INSTITUTE [Amount] $564,244 [Summary] There is currently no available healthcare administrative database which will allow comparative effectiveness research of initial breast cancer surgery, as existing databases lack the specificity and detail of critical data elements that currently drive decisions for initial breast surgery We propose to develop a multicenter electronic breast cancer surgery outcomes database that will allow for an assessment of measures of surgical quality by examining variation in outcomes of initial breast cancer surgery. In addition, we will develop protocols and data capture tools that can be implemented elsewhere in order to extend this data network to future additional CRN sites.
