IBIR Aim & Objectives
The IBIR aims to improve patient safety and quality of care by monitoring and identifying trends and complications associated with operative techniques, breast implants and devices. The registry aims to assure patients, surgeons and their organisations of an independent early warning system for recorded breast implants and devices.
IBIR Objectives
The objectives of the IBIR are to;
provide for both short and long-term monitoring of breast implants and devices to inform patient safety.
improve adherence to best practice standards by providing insights from reported data.
improve awareness for the public of the national registry for breast implants and devices.
collaborate with international breast implant registries within the International Collaboration of Breast Registration Activities (ICOBRA) to contribute towards research for greater understanding of risk factors associated with breast implants and devices.
