Title: Audit of an oesophageal unit. Author: Hill AD, Walsh TN, Moraes D, Hennessy TP. Journal: Ann R Coll Surg Engl; 1992 Nov; 74(6):401-5. PubMed ID: 1471837. Abstract: We report an audit of 786 oesophageal procedures, including 53 oesophagectomies, performed during 1990 in a specialist oesophageal unit. Apart from assessing morbidity and mortality, audit allows a review of cost efficiency and justification for certain practices with regard to patient management. The data reported here may provide a framework against which individual surgeons may assess their own results and compare costs of procedures with a similar outcome.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
