Registration of treatment. The third panel contains data on treatment. The date and type of treatment are chosen from drop-down menus. Only treatments possible for the particular fracture are shown. The registration of treatment includes information about the specific type of implant used, approaches and so on. Finally, the surgeon’s experience level is entered and boxes are checked to indicate whether additional surgery will be performed at another hospital. If the treatment plan is changed or a new procedure is performed, a second treatment panel opens to enable the entry of the additional data. All the color-coded panels can easily be minimized to provide an overview of the injuries and sequence of treatments
