| dc.description.abstract | Defining and maintaining quality is essential to surgical practice. It is
only through structured approaches to assessing outcomes that we
can ensure that optimal care is delivered. This article will define quality
in healthcare and discuss assessment models with reference to pertinent surgical literature. National initiatives are discussed with a critical
appraisal of their role and effectiveness. We discuss the aim of quality
improvement initiatives and comment on reporting of outcomes. The
difficult question of how to maintain quality during a crisis, such as
an infectious disease pandemic, is addressed. | |
