Ethics

The protocol of the Spine Atlas Initiative (SAI) has been assessed by the Ethics Committee of Ostschweiz Switzerland (EKOS), BASEC submission no. AO_2024-00111.
EKOS confirmed that there are no ethical objections as long as the data are anonymised and patient consent is obtained as described in the SAI protocol. Within the field of human research, the project does not require prior/further approval from the ethics committee. Data protection must be ensured.

In most cases the application above for only the data collection and submission is sufficient, where the full protocol is simply attached. If needed, here is the full application template.

Essential resources

Interested in using Spine Tango for data entry?

The EUROSPINE Spine Tango Registry is a free quality assurance tool and research platform available to all EUROSPINE members. It enables hospitals to track and improve the quality of spine care by providing comprehensive reports based on large data sets. These reports help to monitor adverse events, benchmark performance and contribute to better patient outcomes and safety. Join the international network in just a few steps to access valuable data and tools to improve spine care.
As part of the Spine Atlas Initiative, you can join for free during this trial period!
