Â鶹´«Ã½

The Â鶹´«Ã½ helps to improve patient care by addressing 3 critical components: care, evaluation, and improvement. Adhering to the College’s high standards results in higher quality of care, which leads to more accurate clinical data, and system-wide change. Hospitals that participate in one of our Â鶹´«Ã½, including Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP, earn the distinction as an Â鶹´«Ã½Surgical Quality Partner (SQP).

The Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP is a variable-based data registry designed to improve hospital-wide quality across all surgical departments. Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP helps surgical and quality teams make informed decisions about the improvement of quality of care while reducing complications and costs.

Reports sourced directly from patient records provide hospitals and staff with the most accurate and risk-adjusted data to inform patient outcomes.

To improve surgical quality, robust and valid data is required. Fifty-nine percent of surveyed sites were unaware of their hospital’s surgical complication rate before they joined Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP. The data collected from Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP enhances a hospital’s ability to home in on preventable complications because it was developed by surgeons who understand the realities of the operating room.

How Is Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP Better than Other Data Registries?

Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP’s purpose is to collect data to help hospitals and surgeons better understand their quality of care. The data collected from Â鶹´«Ã½NSQIP is:
