BSIR is committed to providing and supporting national registries of interventional radiology procedures. Some of these are funded and managed directly by the BSIR. Others are collaborations with other specialist societies, reflecting the multi-disciplinary nature of our work.

Benefits

Registries provide the opportunity to gather and analyse a large volume of data better to inform our practice.

Benefits of registries include:

  • Improved understanding of the benefits and risks of specific procedures and devices.
  • Provision of confidential comparative data so that individuals and departments can compare their performance with national standards.
  • Providing comparative data to commissioners and providers of health care on the high standards and the quality of interventional practice in the UK.
  • To provide data for contributors allowing them to comply with local and national requirements for appraisal and be ready for revalidation.

BSIR Policy

The BSIR is firmly committed to supporting high quality research and innovation in interventional radiology. The Audit & Wuality Committee welcomes ideas and applications for new registries on all aspects of IR and IO practice.

In order to assist members in progressing new registries, the Audit & Quality Committee produced the attached policy document in 2017. This policy is largely based on the Ideal Framework for innovation in surgical specialties (equally applicable to interventional radiology). Members are encouraged to use the policy document to inform their work developing new registries. 

Applications for BSIR support and badging of new registries should be made using the attached application form.
