Vqi Registries

SVS VQI’s 14 registries contain demographic, clinical, procedural and outcomes data from over one million vascular procedures performed nationwide, in Canada, and Singapore. Each record includes information from the patient’s initial hospitalization and at one-year follow-up.

Benefits of Participation

Improving Patient Care

benefits of participation

Hospitals and physicians rely on SVS VQI data for risk stratification, outcomes analysis, quality improvement, clinical best practice development, comparative effectiveness research, and resource utilization reduction.

Here’s a look at some of the benefits:

  • Adopt best practices through SVS VQI data analysis
  • Improve care through quality initiatives and charters
  • Enhance patient selection using SVS VQI risk assessment calculators
  • Gain the ability to participate in clinical trials
  • Improve care through support and facilitation of quality initiatives and projects
  • Identify meaningful benchmarks for QA and QI efforts
  • Reduce expenses by addressing resource utilization, length of stay, and minimizing complications

Focus on improving patient care

Vascular patients typically require treatment and monitoring on an ongoing basis, sometimes for decades. Long-term relationships with patients are necessary because vascular disease relates to long-term conditions which may involve co-morbidities and complications. Vascular conditions can be the result of, or are exacerbated by, other conditions such as diabetes, obesity, smoking and coronary artery disease.

These factors drive the importance of:

  • Long term follow-up, in some cases with periodic imaging
  • Use of discharge medications, unless contra-indicated
  • Consideration of both surgical and medical treatments for vascular health
  • The value of an on-going relationship with a vascular specialist to identify risk factors

HAVE QUESTIONS?
LET US HELP!

The SVS PSO, together with Fivos, develops quality improvement (QI) tools to assist VQI members and other vascular specialists, quality improvement  staff and hospital administrators with their own vascular quality programs.  Some of these tools are available to VQI members only, but other materials will be available here.

Information about this year’s VQI Annual Meeting at VAM can be found here. Presentations from past VQI@VAM events can be found in the Members Only area.

Unlike most other registries, SVS VQI hosts biannual regional meetings that allow physicians, nurses, data managers, quality officers, and more to meet in a supportive, collaborative environment. VQI collects preoperative and one-year follow-up data to generate real-time benchmarked reports of performance measures, major outcomes, and complications for assessing the quality of care and determining best practices in vascular surgery.

Fivos provides the secure, cloud-based platform, PATHWAYS utilized by the SVS Vascular Quality Initiative, which allows for real-time data collection and reporting for long-term outcomes assessment. Learn more here.

The SVS VQI is pleased to offer you a comprehensive directory of groups and indiduals who can assist you if you have a question. Click here to access the contact us/directory page.
