Putting Registry Data Into Action: Lessons Learned from the Vascular Quality Initiative - Wadzinski

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video features Jim Wodzinski, the Executive Director for the Society for Vascular Surgery's Patient Safety Organization, discussing the registry collaboration between the American College of Cardiology (ACC) and the Society for Vascular Surgery's (SVS) Vascular Quality Initiative (VQI). The VQI is a collection of 14 registries covering various vascular procedures, with over a million cases recorded. The collaboration between the ACC and SVS VQI aims to use real-world data to improve patient care. The video highlights the different types of data available for quality improvement and research activities, as well as the tools and resources provided by the VQI to its members for implementing quality improvement programs. The video also discusses the quarterly best practice dashboards, semi-annual regional quality reports, and the availability of long-term follow-up data. It emphasizes the importance of benchmarking performance, identifying areas for improvement, and sharing best practices among the VQI members. The video concludes with case studies from VQI members, highlighting successful quality improvement projects undertaken by hospitals to improve compliance with surgical guidelines and enhance long-term follow-up care. The video encourages participation in the VQI and the utilization of its resources to improve the quality of care provided to vascular patients.
