Statewide Burn Injury Service (SBIS) Burns Registry
The SBIS Burns Registry collects data for all burn injured patients treated for their injury at the three NSW Statewide Burn Injury units. The data is used for monitoring and reporting on clinical care and outcomes as well as for research. There is a new data collection process and system that has been rolled out at the Royal North Shore Hospital Severe Burn Unit. This new collection process using PowerForms in the patient’s eMR is replacing the multiple entry process developed in 2005. The new system will also be rolled out to the other two NSW Severe Burn Units at Concord Repatriation General Hospital and the Children’s Hospital at Westmead in 2021.
New video tutorials user guides on completion of the SBIS PowerForms have been created and uploaded onto the following link:
