The focus of this session is the quality of perioperative care as well as safety as a particular aspect of quality. Quality and it´s documentation are increasingly important in daily anaesthesia practice. This session provides an overview of current concepts and practices.
The presentations first cover definition and general features of quality and quality measurement, the difference between quality and safety, the quality goals of the Helsinki Declaration, and disparities in Europe regarding measurement of quality and practices of quality improvement (QI). Then, an updated presentation of important perioperative indicators that best describe the quality and safety of perioperative care is presented. To conclude, the practice of data collection to document quality and safety is described, emphasising the potential and pitfalls of data collection systems, local data collection and learning opportunities, barriers and under-reporting, and national registries with their international diversity.
