The clinical entries are clear and legible improving safety. Disadvantages 1.Lack of integration across all systems 2.Constant training required to engage workforce. 3. Potential difficulties if computer systems crash. Conclusions: A paperless service can be set up with full CRS utilisation to create a seamless path from outpatients or casualty to discharge. 1305: AN OVERVIEW OF MINOR SURGERY PRACTICE AND PERFORMANCE IN PRIMARY CARE Julia Ruston, Adebayo Alade , Ben Miranda , Henry Attard , Saul Kaufman . North Central Thames Foundation Deanery, London, UK; Pan-Thames Higher Surgical Training, London, UK. Introduction: General Practitioners (GP) perform thousands of surgical procedures annually. The literature on this topic is, however, sparse and with no national standards interpreting individual performance is difficult. Our aimwas to review primary care minor surgery and provide a snapshot of the GP surgeon workload. Methods: Retrospective analysis of 384 procedures performed over a 3 year period in 3 different primary care centres. Notes were reviewed and demographics, procedure, diagnosis (clinical and histological) and complications noted. Results: 406 skin lesions were removed. Other procedures included abscess and seroma drainage (7), and removal of foreign body (3). Procedures were on: head/neck 39.4%, trunk 26.6%, Arm 17.8%, leg 11.5%, groin 4.7%. 98.5% of excised skin lesions were sent for histopathological analysis; most common werebenignnaevi (139),fibroepithelialpolyps (100)and sebaceous cysts (75). 4were confirmedmalignant; adenocystic carcinoma (1),melanoma (1), basal cell carcinoma (1) and squamous cell carcinoma (1). There were 5 atypical/ dysplastic naevi, 1 possible early SCC and 1 giant cell tumour. Complications included infection (2.3%), wound breakdown (2.1%) and recurrence (1.8%). Conclusions: The study provides a comprehensive review of GP minor surgery. Complication rates were acceptable and low malignancy rates suggest appropriate referral to secondary services. 1306: PROMOTING TRANSPARENCY IN CLINICAL RESEARCH: SYSTEMATIC REVIEW OF DISCLOSURE AND DATA-SHARING POLICIES IN SURGICAL JOURNALS S.J.

Introduction: The primary aim of this study was to determine author compliance with surgical randomised controlled trial (RCT) registration. The secondary aimwas to explore data sharing policies of surgical journals. Methods: A systematic assessment of RCT publishing and registration practices in 10 high-impact surgical journals during 2009 and 2012. Data relating to trial registration, statements of disclosure and data sharing were extracted. Trials were systematically cross-matched to registration databases. Data expressed descriptively (%) with longitudinal comparisons (2009 vs. 2012) using Chi-squared analyses. Predictors of non-registration are explored using logistic regression. Results: 246 RCTswere identified (2009: n1⁄4109 vs. 2012: n1⁄4137), of which 76.4% (67.0% vs. 83.9% respectively; p1⁄40.062) were registered on a clinical trials database. Author disclosure and funding statements were present in 71.5% (49.5% vs. 89.1%; p<0.01) and 60.01% (55.1% vs. 65.0%; p1⁄40.074) respectively. Data sharing statements were only included in two studies. Year of publication (p1⁄40.005) and year-specific journal impact factor (p<0.001) were strong predictors of registration status. Only one journal held a policy of mandatory data sharing in their author instructions. Conclusions: Registration of surgical RCTs is increasing over time but remains sub-optimal. The principle of open access data sharing is poorly endorsed in surgical research. 1317: THE IMPACT OF PREOPERATIVE TEXT MESSAGES ON PATIENT KNOWLEDGE AND ADHERENCE TO FASTING GUIDELINES Aneesha Verma, Asela Dharmadasa , Jeremy Prout , George Hamilton .
