Australian Breast Device Registry (ABDR)
Australian Breast Device Registry (ABDR)
The Australian Breast Device Registry (ABDR) is run by Monash University. We encourage patients to request that their details be recorded with the ABDR. Patients and health care practitioners looking for information on the ABDR may contact the coordinator on (03) 9903 0205 or abdr@monash.edu or visit the website for more information: http://www.abdr.org.au
Former Breast Implant Registry
The Breast Implant Registry (BIR) commenced in 1998. It has now been superseded by the ABDR.
As of 6 May 2015, the BIR ceased to register new patients. However, the Australian Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS) continues to maintain the BIR legacy data and to ensure all registered patients continue to have access to their unique data stored on the Registry. ASPS will continue to maintain policies and protocols to ensure privacy and security.
If you have questions about your participation in the BIR, please contact bir@plasticsurgery.org.au or call ASPS on (02) 9437 9200.
