Newsletter #17 March 2019
1
Greetings! As the New Year began, staff at the Registry were busily entering data to ensure that the Semi-Annual Report contained all the information submitted over the holiday period. Highlights of the Semi-Annual Report are posted in this newsletter.
Audit of Surgical Devices The Bariatric Surgery Registry is conducting an important audit of the device preferences of all surgeons who have contributed to the Registry to date. This audit will validate the device data which has been captured for the operations in the Registry. All contributing surgeons have been emailed a request to complete the audit either online using the Survey Monkey link provided or by completing the Audit form. Surgeons who have not yet submitted their device preferences are asked to do so as soon as possible so that the audit can be finalized and data verified. If you have any questions about the audit or would like a form to complete, please contact Jenifer Cottrell by email: [email protected] or phone: +61 03 9903 0721. ______________________________________________
New Sites Last year the Registry submitted an ethics application to add a number of new sites to the Registry under the National Mutual Application (NMA) scheme. This Scheme allows for the streamlining of ethics review by having one lead ethics committee with oversight for the project. Until now, the Registry had been hamstrung
by the number of different ethics committees whose approval was required each time an amendment to the protocol was needed. As the number of committees grew to nearly 40, action needed to be taken. The short-term pain for making an NMA application called for the project to be reviewed as a ‘new’ study. Hence the protocol would need considered review to ensure that it adhered to the revised National Statement on Ethical Conduct in Human Research 2007 (updated 2018). The Registry successfully received approval from The Alfred Hospital Human Research Ethics Committee on the 5th of March 2019. Site Assessment applications have begun for all new sites and must be completed before data may be submitted. However, not all Registry sites are eligible for the NMA scheme. These sites are those with review by the following ethics committees: Mater Misericordiae Limited HREC, Mater North Queensland HREC, the Calvary Care HRECs, St John of God HREC and the Tasmanian Health and Medical Ethics Committee. Protocol amendment applications will now be required to be submitted to these committees. These amendment submissions have commenced, ensuring that all Australian sites are following the revised protocol and related documentation. An amendment to New Zealand’s Health and Disability Ethics Committee will also be submitted by the end of April 2019, which covers the relative differences to meet their local requirements. ________________________________________________ Revised Study Protocol All contributing surgeons and gastroenterologists are considered to be investigators in the study. As such it is vitally important that everyone participating adheres to the study protocol and does not deviate from it. If you are participating in the Registry, please ensure that you are familiar with the new study Protocol version 5.0 which can be found on the Registry’s website here: https://www.monash.edu/medicine/sphpm/registries/bariatric/policies-procedures _______________________________________________

BARIATRIC SURGERY REGISTRY NEWSLETTER #17 MARCH 2019
Certificates of Outstanding Merit are awarded to:
Milly England (Mr Michael Hii) Kelly Sanguinetti (Mr Ahmad Aly) Rebecca Wade (Mr Ahmad Aly) Shelley Lisle (Mr Ahmad Aly)
Under 18’s in the Registry One of the significant changes made to the Protocol is that patients under 18 years old must go through informed consent in order to participate in the Bariatric Surgery Registry. If your practice is planning a bariatric procedure on a patient under 18 years old, please contact the Registry for an Informed Consent form and for Registry staff to explain what is involved to you or your staff. Bariatric surgery is increasing amongst the younger population. The Registry aims to capture information about procedures performed on young persons in order to reliably report the appropriateness, safety and effectiveness of bariatric surgery in this age group. ___________________________________________
Linkage with LapBase Available The Registry can directly link with LapBase to collect annual follow-up data for those surgeons who have subscriptions to the software. [NOTE: Surgeons are still required to provide operation and perioperative follow-up data.] All enquiries about this linkage must go to LapBase directly. For further information contact Wayne at [email protected] ___________________________________________ Welcome to the Registry’s New Team Members Several staff have recently left the Registry at Monash University as they have completed their tertiary or graduate studies. Whilst they will be sorely missed, the Registry is pleased to welcome the following new staff: Angus Campbell, Rebecca Tourogianis, Declan Wain, Jared Cox and Hayley Cottrell. Marlene Jacobs was also given a fond farewell as she and her husband moved to Mackay. Simone Wilkins has replaced Marlene in the Administration Officer role and will be the new main point of contact for the Registry in Melbourne. Please join the Registry’s warm welcome to them all! ___________________________________________
Recognising Star Staff Mr Michael Hii and Mr Ahmad Aly have nominated their staff for their outstanding dedication and hard work in collecting [our] BSR data.” Mr Hii contacted the Registry first thing in the New Year to nominate Milly England for her dedication and to ensure that she is recognized for Outstanding Merit. Mr Aly nominated the following staff of Darebin Weight Loss Surgery with comments about each of them: Kelly Sanguinetti “Kelly works as our Administrate Manager as well as being the primary Receptionist. Her role is demanding in both volume and breadth of tasks and her dedication is something I am extremely grateful for. She monitors and audits our BSR lists, assists with data extraction and patient recall schedules on top of her already overloaded work program. Kelly deserves rich and formal recognition and a certificate of outstanding merit could not be better placed.” Rebecca Wade “Rebecca has volunteered in the practice for 12 months and has been meticulous in gathering follow up data as well as auditing and correcting where required submitted data. She has instituted several novel processes to aid patient recall and monitoring and has been instrumental in ensuring our high quality data submission to the Registry.” Shelley Lisle “Shelley is our Clinical Nurse Consultant who co-ordinates all the care of patients and without whom we could not provide the care we do. She has been innovative in creating a closed patient face book page which now has 600 members and is a terrific instrument in encouraging patients to re attend follow up and participate in the registry data collection process. She is the glue that holds the practice processes in place.”

Stakeholder Engagement Seminar The first Bariatric Surgery Registry Stakeholder seminar was held in Melbourne on March 15th. Guests came from across Australia and New Zealand to attend this inaugural event.
Featured speakers included: Professor Jeff Hamdorf, The University of Western Australia; Ms. Mary Warner, Medicare Benefits Scheme, Commonwealth Government Department of Health; Mrs. Kaye McMillian, LaTrobe Health Services; Ms. Sandra Marjanovic, Medical Technology Association of Australia; Ms. Nicola Ware, Ramsay Hospital Research Foundation; and Ms. Lyn Keppler, Bariatric Patient.
Dr Nick Williams and Dr Nic Kormas chaired the afternoon session which captivated the audience. All speakers spoke about the relevance of having a bariatric surgery from their unique perspective as well as the importance of a registry. Perhaps most importantly, Ms. Keppler told how those considering bariatric surgery seek out “real-world information.” Her presentation made a profound impact on everyone, and encouraged surgeons to think about the way in which they talked to patients in regards to their procedures.
The Registry would like to extend its sincere appreciation to all who travelled from near and far to take part in the seminar.
