The Russian registry of chronic hypoparathyroidism and clinical decision support system integration

Abstract

According to available research, chronic hypoparathyroidism is a relatively rare disease characterized by low serum calcium levels and the absence or deficiency of parathyroid hormone. The chronic course of the disease is associated with the multicomponent medical therapy, careful dynamic monitoring to reduce the risks of various complications in different organs and systems as well as disability and mortality.The Russian registry of patients with chronic postsurgical and nonsurgical hypoparathyroidism has started its work in 2020, based on data of the Endocrinology Research Centre. The main goals of the Registry are the assessment of the actual prevalence, incidence of hypoparathyroidism, the key epidemiological characteristics, the analysis of the clinical features and medical therapy of chronic hypoparathyroidism in Russian Federation.This article covers all objectives of this project, the methodology for maintaining the registry of chronic postsurgical and nonsurgical hypoparathyroidism, the analytical possibilities of its use, including the integration of a decision support system designed to help specialists in real clinical practice follow the algorithms for diagnosis and treatment of the disease, approved by clinical guidelines.The registry of chronic postsurgical and nonsurgical hypoparathyroidism is located on a single platform for the registers of endocrinopathies, regulated by the Endocrinology Research Centre (http://gipopt.clin-reg.ru/).
