National Transfusion Dataset (NTD)

The National Transfusion Dataset (NTD) is a collection of transfusion episode data incorporating transfusion, laboratory and hospital data from hospitals and health services, as well as prehospital transfusion data from ambulance and retrieval services.The NTD will form the first integrated national database of blood usage in Australia. The NTD aims to collect information about where, when, and how blood products are used across all clinical settings. This will address Australia’s absence of an integrated national database to record blood usage with the ability to link with clinical outcomes. The dataset will be an invaluable resource towards a comprehensive understanding of how and why blood products are used, numbers and characteristics of patients transfused in health services, the clinical outcomes after transfusion; and provide support to policy development and research.The NTD was formed through the incorporation of the established Australian and New Zealand Massive Transfusion Registry (ANZ-MTR) and a pilot Transfusion Database (TD) project. The ANZ-MTR has a unique focus on massive transfusion (MT) and contains over 10,000 cases from 41 hospitals across Australia and New Zealand. The TD was a trial extension of the registry that collated data on ALL (not just massive) transfusions on >8000 patients from pilot hospitals. The NTD will integrate and expand these databases to provide new data on transfusion practice including blood utilisation, clinical management and the vital closing of the haemovigilance loop.Conditions of use:Any material or manuscript to be published using NTD data must be submitted for review by the NTD Steering Committee prior to submission for publication. The NTD, and Partner Organisations should be acknowledged in all publications. Preferred wording for the acknowledgement will be provided with the data. The NTD reserves the right to dissociate itself from conclusions drawn if it deems necessary.If the data is the primary source for a report or publication, the source of the data must be acknowledged, along with a statement that the analysis and interpretation are those of the author, not the NTD. Where an author analysing the data is a member of an organisation formally associated, or partnered with the NTD, the NTD should be acknowledged as a secondary affiliation. Where the author is a member of the NTD Project Team, then the primary attribution should be the NTD. The dataset DOI (10.26180/22151987) must be referenced in all publications.Further information can be found in the Data Access and Publications Policy.To submit a data access request click here.

《国家输血数据集》（NTD）汇集了来自医院和卫生服务机构的输血、实验室和医院数据，以及救护车和救援服务机构的院前输血数据。NTD 将构成澳大利亚首个血液使用的综合国家级数据库。NTD 的目标在于收集关于血液产品在所有临床环境中何时、何地以及如何使用的相关信息。这将填补澳大利亚缺乏一个能够与临床结果相连接的综合国家级数据库以记录血液使用的空白。该数据集将成为全面理解血液产品使用方式及其原因、健康服务中输血患者的数量和特征、输血后的临床结果等不可或缺的资源，并为政策制定和科研提供支持。《国家输血数据集》是在澳大利亚和新西兰大规模输血登记处（ANZ-MTR）及试点输血数据库（TD）项目的基础上形成的。ANZ-MTR 以大规模输血（MT）为独特焦点，包含来自澳大利亚和新西兰41家医院的超过10,000个案例。TD 是对登记处的一次试验性扩展，收集了试点医院所有（而不仅仅是大规模）输血在超过8,000名患者身上的数据。NTD 将整合并扩展这些数据库，以提供关于输血实践的新数据，包括血液利用、临床管理和至关重要的血液监护闭环的关闭。使用条件：任何使用NTD数据的材料或手稿在提交出版前必须提交给NTD指导委员会审查。在所有出版物中，NTD 和合作伙伴组织应得到认可。数据提供时将提供认可的推荐措辞。NTD 保留在认为必要时从所得出结论中分离自己的权利。如果数据是报告或出版物的首要来源，必须承认数据来源，并声明分析和解释是作者的个人观点，而非NTD的观点。如果分析数据的作者属于与NTD正式关联或合作的组织成员，NTD应作为次要关联得到认可。如果作者属于NTD项目团队，则NTD应为主要归属。所有出版物必须引用数据集DOI（10.26180/22151987）。更多信息请参阅数据访问和出版物政策。点击此处提交数据访问请求。
