Letter to BC PhysiciansRE: National Surgical Quality Improvement Program –30 day Follow Up Information

Dear Family Physician,

We are writing to advise you that BC has embarked on an exciting new surgical initiative and to request your participation in it. Twenty‐two hospitals (listed on next page) are involved in the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program (ACS‐NSQIP). One of the hallmarks of this program is to determine the 30 day post‐operative outcomes.

NSQIP is an internationally recognized program designed to identify the surgical programs’ strengthsand weaknesses and gaps in surgical practices. Data generated from the risk‐adjusted and online reports will be used for the development of goals and quality improvement activities  in BC’s surgical programs.

NSQIP collects data on preoperative risk factors, intraoperative variables, and 30‐day post‐operativemortality and morbidity outcomes for patients undergoing surgical procedures.To provide accurate and actionable data, your participation is critical to the success of this program and our ability to strive for excellence in the care we provide to patients in this province. Members of the NSQIP team may be contacting you or your office staff to retrieve information on the surgical patients.

We would greatly appreciate your assistance in this important initiative. If you want to learn moreabout who is involved or if you have any questions, please go to www.bcpsqc.ca

“Quality is top of mind for hospitals today, but the work is far from done. Participating in [NSQIP] will give hospitals and surgeons an effective tool to improve patient outcomes. This translates not just to improved health and saved lives, but also reduced costs. Everyone wins – and no one more than the patient.”

Google Docs• 21 responses• Summary See complete responses • Question 1: Patient takes Varapamil, but hypertension is not documented 

anywhere except on the form requesting a pre‐op beta blocker. There is no HTN noted in the history and physical or the Anesthesia Worksheet. The patient has a history of Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT; that was treated with ablation), and is taking Verapamil for this condition. 

• Question 1 Answer Yes 00% No 100% • No Varapamil is a calcium channel blocker. It has been used in the treatment of 

hypertension, angina pectoris, or cardiac arrhythmia. With no documented history for HTN, do not count this as "hypertension requiring medication."

• Question 1 Comments• I found this helpful.I like the format. And I also appreciate that there is a place to 

comment afterwards. This will help facilitate the discussion. NIcely done!Thanks! Awesome! Thanks for creating the Case Study Questions for the BC SCRs. Especially for the newbies like me. I love these questions. Keep them coming! Thank you, Looks great to me.I like this format. I got the answer correct. Great job. I look forward to learning/reviewing more case studies.
