Risk-standardized rate for routine discharge for elective primary total hip and knee arthroplasty.
Measure Type: Outcome
90-Day Composite Complication Rate for Degenerative Spine Procedures
Percentage of patients ages 18 years and older, undergoing a lumbar or cervical procedure, who had a post-operative complication.
Sepsis diagnosis and management: Lactate Level Measurement, Antibiotics Ordered, and Fluid Septic shock outcomes: Lactate clearance rate of greater than equal to 10%
This measure will be calculated with 2 performance rates:
1. Percentage of patients aged ≥ 18 years visiting the emergency department with sepsis or septic shock resulting in hospital admission or transfers and who had an order for all the following: a serum lactate level, antibiotics, and >= 1 L of crystalloids.
2. Percentage of patients aged ≥ 18 years visiting the emergency department with septic shock resulting in hospital admission or transfers who had an initial and repeat lactate performed, where the first serum lactate result (>2mmol/L) is elevated and a lactate clearance rate of >= 10% achieved during the emergency department visit.
Chest Pain – Avoidance of admission for adult patients with low-risk chest pain.
Percentage of adult patients who came to the Emergency Department with low-risk chest pain and were discharged.
Syncope – Avoidance of admission for adult patients with low-risk syncope
Percentage of emergency department (ED) visits for patients aged 18-50 years with a diagnosis of low-risk syncope who were discharged
Avoidance of admission for adult patients in Emergency Department with low-risk Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
Percentage of patients 18 years and older who present to the Emergency Department with low-risk Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) and are discharged home
Avoidance of Admission for Atrial Fibrillation
Percentage of adult patients aged 18 years and older presenting to the Emergency Department with atrial fibrillation who were discharged to home
Blood Pressure Control Among Adult ED Patients with Nontraumatic Intracranial Hemorrhage
