1. Door - to - balloon time among patients who have presented with acute ST segment elevation Myocardial infarction ( STEMI)

What does it mean?

Average time between arrival of patient to the emergency room and when the compromised vessel is re perfused via coronary intervention in the Cath lab. Prompt percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) significantly reduces mortality and morbidity

2. Operative mortality following isolated CABG

What does it mean?

Operative mortality has been defined as any death, regardless of cause, occurring within 30 days after surgery in or out of the hospital, and after 30 days during the same hospitalization subsequent to the operation.

Name of ParameterBench MarkReferenceGKNMH data Jan – Dec 2021

3. Incidence of stroke post isolated CABG

What does it mean?

Stroke is one of the most devastating complications after coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery, entailing permanent disability, a 3–6 fold increased risk of mortality, an increased cost of hospitalisation and a longer length of hospital stay.

4. Incidence of surgical site infection following Cesarean section.

What does it mean?

Surgical site infection (SSI) is an infection that occurs after surgery within 30 days in the part of the body where the surgery took place. Surgical site infections are one of the main complication of cesarean section and are associated with elevated health care costs and maternal morbidity.

5. Complication rate in image guided interventions

Complication rate in image guided interventions

Image-guided percutaneous needle biopsy (PNB) is an established, effective procedure for selected patients with suspected pathology. While practicing , physicians should strive to avoid complications during this diagnostic procedure.

6. Quality measures for Pediatric cardiac surgery

What does it mean?

The Pediatric cardiothoracic services in G.Kuppuswamy Naidu Memorial Hospital is a Children`s Heart link partner participating in the International Quality Improvement Collaborative for Congenital Heart diseases (IQIC). All data submitted is verified and validated by the team from Boston children`s Hospital. The annual benchmarking report of IQIC allows to track performance and compare our results with our IQIC partners.
