  • National joint registries are gaining more and more importance in the fields of implant monitoring/outlier detection and quality of care.

  • The German Arthroplasty Registry (EPRD) was established in 2010 for the purpose of observing the impact of primary hip and knee arthroplasty on the German population.

  • Having now over one million documentations, we introduce the structure of the EPRD and detail the process of data collection.

  • We report on some preliminary trends and contrast these with findings from other joint registries.

  • We introduce the overhauled Arthroplasty Library, that resulted from an international collaboration with National Joint Registry of England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
