GENERIC CLEARANCE UNDER OMB#: 0935-0179 EXP. DATE: 11/30/2023


ABSTRACT:

Shape1


The AHRQ Improving Surgical Care and Recovery (ISCR) project is designed to help hospitals implement evidence-based practices to improve outcomes and prevent complications among patients who undergo surgery. Enhanced recovery pathways include preoperative, intraoperative, and postoperative practices that decrease complications and accelerate recovery. Through this project, AHRQ helped over 200 hospitals implement surgical practices designed to reduce infections and other complications.


This qualitative evaluation is to understand hospitals’ experiences as they extended the ISCR enhanced recovery intervention from the colorectal surgical line to hip/knee replacement, hip fracture, gynecological, and emergency general surgery. In-depth, semi-structured individual interviews will be conducted with key staff from six hospitals that initiated the intervention in the colorectal line, extended it to one or more surgical lines, and are currently participating in at least one of the surgical lines.

Users. Examples of Host Users include: state agencies, public health departments, hospital associations, hospital systems, and individual hospitals, multi-stakeholder alliances and coalitions, Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs), and health plans.
