Issue Date: | 5-Oct-2018 | Date: | 2018-10-05 | Publication information: | Otolaryngologic clinics of North America 2018; online first: 5 October | Abstract: | There have been reports of successful quality-improvement initiatives surrounding tracheostomy care for more than a decade, but widespread adoption of best practices has not been universal. Five key drivers have been found to improve the quality of care for tracheostomy patients: multidisciplinary synchronous ward rounds, standardization of care protocols, appropriate interdisciplinary education and staff allocation, patient and family involvement, and use of data to drive improvement. The Global Tracheostomy Collaborative is a quality-improvement collaborative dedicated to improving the care of tracheostomy patients worldwide through communication, dissemination, and implementation of proven strategies based on these 5 key drivers. | URI: | https://ahro.austin.org.au/austinjspui/handle/1/19673 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.otc.2018.08.006 | Journal: | Otolaryngologic clinics of North America | PubMed URL: | 30297183 | Type: | Journal Article | Subjects: | Collaborative Patient safety Quality improvement Tracheostomy Tracheotomy |
