1 A Coordinated Registry Network Based on the Vascular Quality Initiative: VISION Vascular Implant Surveillance & Interventional Outcomes Network Philip P. Goodney, MD, MS Chair, Research Advisory Committee Society for Vascular Surgery Patient Safety Organization Jack Cronenwett, MD, Art Sedrakyan, MD PhD MDEpiNet (FDA 1U01FD )

2 Launched by Society for Vascular Surgery in 2011 Mission: To improve the quality, safety, effectiveness and cost of vascular health care by collecting and exchanging information.

5 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2014

6 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2015

7 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2016

8 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA No Symptoms 2016

9 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2016 No Symptoms 3 Different Surgeons, 2 Different Hospitals

10 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2016 No Symptoms 3 Different Surgeons, 2 Different Hospitals Risk of Mortality if His Aneurysm Ruptures = 50%

11 Why this is a good idea DG 66 year old male 6.2 cm AAA 2016 Reliable Surveillance After Vascular Care is a Key Priority for Patients, Providers, Payers, and Regulatory Agencies

14 Opportunity for a Coordinated Research Network Need for data comparing device, treatment types Little consensus about best treatment methods Carotid endarterectomy vs. stenting Peripheral artery bypass vs. interventional treatment Open vs endovascular aortic treatment

15 Opportunity for a Coordinated Research Network Need for data comparing device, treatment types Little consensus about best treatment methods Carotid endarterectomy vs. stenting Peripheral artery bypass vs. interventional treatment Open vs endovascular aortic treatment Lack of high quality data about long term outcomes Most studies have limited follow up, often 1 year at most Difficulty in systematic data collection

16 Our VISION for the Data In VISION Clinical and Technical Data Available in Registries about procedures, patients, and devices

17 Our VISION for the Data In VISION Clinical and Technical Data Available in Registries about procedures, patients, and devices Long term, generalizable follow up using linkages to Medicare Claims, Under 65 data sources, PCORnet, and other sources

34 Advantages, Disadvantages, and Opportunities Advantages of Linked Clinical Claims Registries Medicare allows us to follow nearly all vascular care providers Low cost, generalizable matching and surveillance Real world practice patterns and devicespecific outcomes Disadvantages Probabilistic matching Lack of sidedness in outcomes, no under 65 Need for auditing strategies Solutions 3 years of experience, and plans for identified matching with GDIT ICD 10 External auditing efforts underway

35 Low Cost, But High Value Potential End User Patients Providers Industry Payers Product they can leverage The best long term information about the effectiveness of their treatments Low cost, national surveillance networks Distributed network for integrating real world practice Monitoring of effectiveness and practice trends Advantages Real world, nearly realtime data Not isolated in trials or within industry Opportunity for partnership Provider collaboration for monitoring

36 Summary: VISION is a CRN for National Vascular Care FDA and other Stakeholders Including Patients Device Companies for PAS and Surveillance VQI Based VISION Link to PCORI CDRN Vascular Implant Surveillance and Interventional Outcomes Network Link to Medicare, Commercial Claims and All Payer NY Data Inter National Registries

37 VISION Conclusions Registry based CRN is a pragmatic and efficient way to create a device surveillance system Allows partnership with major stakeholders to build a sustainable infrastructure Leverages national investment in data systems (PCORI CDRN, Medicare, State, Professional Society data) FDA 1U01FD Art Sedrakyan, Principal Investigator
