NJR Data Entry System

System Registration

To access the NJR Data Entry System you will need to register for an NJR user account.

User accounts

There are four categories of NJR user accounts, each have a different level of data access.

• NJR Hospital Data Entry: can enter data on the system but does not have access to any data reports.
• NJR Hospital Data Manager: can access all NJR data for the hospital under which they are registered. They can only view data for surgeons who have given their prior permission. (This permission can be given online within the data entry system via the individual surgeon’s user account or by emailing the NJR Centre.)
• Surgeon: can access their own data for operations they have performed in hospitals registered on the NJR. Lead surgeons can access their own data and consultants-in-charge can access all data where they are recorded as the consultant in charge. (Surgeons need to ensure that they have been affiliated with all relevant hospitals on the NJR database.)
• Implant supplier: can access their own component data and download their component lists, i.e. NJR categorisation code, description and supplier catalogue (reference) number, for checking purposes.
• Data Uploader – The Data Uploader role supports the NJR Data Quality Audit programme and a user has the rights necessary to upload CSV files containing a hospital’s PAS data to the National Joint Registry database via the Data Entry system in order to undertake Data Quality Audits.

To register for an account you will need to send an email to the NJR Service Desk (enquiries@njrcentre.org.uk). The email must be sent from a hospital email address; we will not be able to approve requests for new users if they are sent from personal email addresses.

When emailing a request you will need to include the following information:

• Your user type, eg hospital data entry
• Your name (in full)
• The hospital(s) at which you work
• If you are a surgeon, also your GMC code and grade.
