Legacy File Extract to Upload to DSHSAll data files that are sent to The Registry must
be in ASCII tab-delimited format. A tab must follow every field except the last field of each record. Even if there is no data recorded for a particular field, or the field is optional, a tab must still be placed in that field’s position.
The Main Fields section contains the minimum standard data set that everyone is required to send to The Registry. A file sent in the Main Format must contain all of the fields in the Main Fields section of the appropriate data set.

Name Data FieldsIn the file you have sent for the past several
years, there are columns for the first name and the last name
Vendors have either left them blank, inserted a tab, or inserted a space
Some hospitals report patient names to DSHS already
Many EMS have not been reporting patient names even though it has been required for years, DSHS has never enforced it
28
![Page 29: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Considerations for Reporting Patient NameDSHS conducted two webinars for vendors
Aug. 20 and Aug. 23Vendors so far have conveyed to DSHS, the
customer is able to change a setting on their software to populate the name fields with data and this will not require the vendor to re-create the file extract

Considerations ContinuedIf an entity can not change a setting locally and
needs their vendor to make a software change in order to populate the name fields, then DSHS will work with that entity and vendor to assist
DSHS is currently exploring a ‘work around’ for any entities who can not report patient names by ‘Go Live’
Your hospital designation or EMS license will not be negatively impacted if you are not able to report patient names at ‘Go Live’
31
![Page 32: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Considerations ContinuedDSHS is extending ‘Go Live’ by one week in
order to create the ‘work around’ solution to enable entities to continue to report even if they are not able to report names at ‘Go Live’
‘Go Live’ is now Sept. 17th, 2012

How will names be used?Patient names will be used for:De-duplicationEMS and Hospital Record Linking
33
![Page 34: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
De-duplicationThe registry was developed to allow only the
reporting facility to see their data (can allow RAC access or Billing company access)
Records can be de-duplicated within each facilityFor a record to be considered a duplicate, both
records must contain the same data for the date of the event, the DOB, County of Residence, etc.
If one record has exactly the same data AND contains additional data elements not in the second record, then the record with the greatest amount of data will be saved and the other marked as a duplicate for deletion
34
![Page 35: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
De-duplicating ContinuedAccuracy in reporting the number of patients
injured: It is important to not count the same person twice for the same injury when reporting on the number of persons injured
Valid and complete data is needed to determine whether records are duplicates.
Patient names are essential to detect duplicates
35
![Page 36: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
De-duplicating ContinuedA recent de-duplication of EMS records for
the Houston MSA revealed 6% of records were duplicates.
There are 2 million EMS records reported annually to DSHS
6% of 2 million records would be an estimated 120,000 duplicate records
36
![Page 37: Update on Building a New Trauma Registry](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062411/56816793550346895ddccc60/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Linking EMS and Hospital RecordsIt is important to link EMS to hospital
records to study the factors associated with treatment given at the scene and during transport with the factors associated with the hospital treatment and the ultimate patient outcome.
Linking EMS to Hospital records has been a goal articulated for a long time by the stakeholders for the trauma system in Texas
