OBJECTIVE
To measure the 'public good' by retrieving, collating, reviewing and assessing outputs from projects using information supplied from the Western Australian Data Linkage System (WADLS) during 1995-2003.
METHODS
Using WADLS project application records, all investigators were contacted and requested to submit research outputs for review.
RESULTS
708 outputs comprising journal articles, reports, presentations, conference proceedings, media, theses and other items were reported. During the review, consequential policy reforms in mental health, crystalline silica exposure guidelines and surgical mortality audit were identified. Consequential clinical practice reforms had occurred in laparoscopic, cholecystectomy and acute coronary care.
CONCLUSIONS
Data linkage can make a substantial and quantifiable contribution to population health and policy development.
目的
通过检索、整理、审查和评估1995年至2003年期间利用西澳大利亚数据链接系统（WADLS）提供的信息从项目中得出的成果，来衡量“公共利益”。
方法
利用WADLS项目申请记录，联系了所有研究人员并要求他们提交研究成果以供审查。
结果
共报告了708项成果，包括期刊文章、报告、演讲、会议论文集、媒体报道、论文及其他项目。在审查过程中，发现了心理健康方面的相应政策改革、结晶硅暴露指南和手术死亡率审计。腹腔镜、胆囊切除术和急性冠状动脉护理方面也发生了相应的临床实践改革。
结论
数据链接可为人群健康和政策制定做出重大且可量化的贡献。
