CONCORDANCE

ABOUT THE REGISTRY

CONCORDANCE is a prospective, Australian investigator-initiated ACS (Acute Coronary Syndrome) registry intended for use by clinicians to help improve the quality of patient care in line with current treatment guidelines. The data collected detail the pre-hospital assessment and management, admission diagnosis; demographics; medical history; in-hospital investigations and management including the timing of invasive therapy; medication dosage and timing and in-hospital events. Data are then returned to each site in a real time report which includes a summary of key performance indicators (KPIs) for each centre benchmarked against the study standard. Patients are followed for quality of life measures, clinical events and medication compliance at 6 months and 12 months, following hospital discharge.
