Funded Activity Summary

Heart disease is an important cause of death and disability. The treatments received by patients hospitalised with common heart conditions can vary considerably. At present, there are no systematic methods in place to routinely assess the quality of care or patient outcomes following hospitalisation. This proposal keeps developing quality indicators to measure care experienced by patients admitted following a heart attack or those with heart failure as well for those undergoing common cardiac procedures.
