Journal Title: Acta HealthMedica - Year 2017, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
Introduction: The health ministry of Iran, recently set a goal of developing disease registries and cohort studies. A common question was about the rationale supporting such a decision and policy. In order to achieve a clear understanding and test the hypothesis of “disease registries are associated with the quality of health care management”, reviewing literature would be an appropriate strategy. The aim of this study was to explain the association of disease registry and improve disease care with disease registrations. Methods: The medical electronic databases including PubMed, Ovide, Google Scholar and Science Direct and scientific websites in which the most relevant and valid articles were searched to retrieve relevant articles. Keywords and terms related to disease registry advantages and benefits were used. Results: The results illustrated that disease registries play a key role in realizing the errors and complications of health care services and improve medical adherence. Conclusion: We can conclude that disease registries are assisting health care systems to upgrade health care services and increase quality of care
