A flowchart showing the data for the Scottish Arthroplasty Project. The data are derived from the SMR01 (Scottish Morbidity Record). All National Health Service hospitals create an SMR01 record for every inpatient or day case episode, and every new episode creates a new SMR01 form. These are all collected at a central office and are linked with the General Register for Scotland death record.
