Pituitary Tumour Clinical and Research Database

What is the Pituitary Tumour Clinical and Research Database?

Designed in partnership with endocrinologists, the BioGrid Pituitary Tumour Database is a web-based application that enables the management of patients’ pituitary tumour diagnosis, treatment and follow-up information. Designed to operate within clinics, with clinicians reviewing and updating patient information during consultations, the application produces patient summary reports and letters to facilitate multi-disciplinary care.  

The BioGrid Pituitary Tumour Database enables the collection of a comprehensive dataset, including:

• Demographic Details 
• Diagnosis and Clinical Features
• Surgical Treatments
• Radiotherapy
• Medications
• Pathology Test Results

To support its use within clinics, the BioGrid Pituitary Tumour Database produces a number of reports and letters, including:

• Letter to the Multi-Disciplinary Care Team
• Patient Summary Report

The database can also be connected to the BioGrid Australia data linkage platform, enabling data to be used for approved collaborative clinical audit and research projects.
