Background Long‐term survival (LTS) following abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) surgery is an outcome that can compare open surgical repair (OSR) and endovascular AAA repair (EVAR) methods. We examined the LTS of persons following successful AAA repair using administrative health data covering the Australian Pharmaceutical Benefits and Medicare Benefits Schemes from 1993 to 2014. Methods Participants undergoing AAA surgery were identified using procedure codes and the last service provision date used as a proxy mortality marker. LTS and relative survival with control populations in those who survived the initial post‐operative period were used to compare OSR and EVAR and estimates between the first and second halves of the study. Results A total of 2060 persons who had undergone AAA repair were identified. Overall median LTS (95% CI) following elective, ruptured OSR and EVAR were 10.4 (9.1–11.0), 8.5 (6.7–10.3) and 9.7 (8.1–11.3) years, respectively. Relative survival rates at 5 and 10 years were 0.89 and 0.7 for OSR and 0.87 and 0.66 for EVAR. LTS rates were similar for OSR and EVAR in age groups 65–84 years (EVAR/OSR range 0.96–1.16); however, EVAR was superior to OSR in persons aged >85 years at 5 years (EVAR/OSR 1.32, log‐rank P < 0.05). Relative survival following all techniques of AAA repair showed no significant change over the duration of the study. Conclusion LTS following AAA repair was heterogeneous in comparison with control populations and varied with age and procedure. The 5‐year LTS following EVAR in persons aged >85 years is superior to OSR. Administrative data can define long‐term outcomes following aortic aneurysm surgery and may complement data already collected by surgeons.

A Computer-Based System for Urology and Nephrology

Modern technology offers new opportunities for the storage and manipulation of hospital information. A computer-based system for urology and nephrology has been designed and developed in this centre. It uses a program that allows the analysis of unrestricted non-codified texts and the operation by hospital staff who have had no more than minimal computer training. The potential of such a system is outlined and a comparison is made with other existing systems. Future prospects and potential lines of development are presented.Accepted for publication 1 1 February 1987 38 1 elementary knowledge of computer function and has imposed scarcely any burden on already overworked medical staff.

SummaryModern information technology offers new opportunities for the storage and manipulation of hospital information. A computer-based hospital information system, dedicated to urology and nephrology, was designed and developed in our center. It involves in principle the employment of a program that allows the analysis of non-restricted, non-codified texts for the retrieval and processing of clinical data and its operation by non-computer-specialized hospital staff.This Hospital Information System now plays a vital role in the efficient provision of a good quality service and is used in daily routine and research work in this hospital. This paper describes this specialized Hospital Information System.
