PIPS-Process Improvement & Patient Safety (performance) ANS >>> ACS:
Originated the NTDB, National Data repository of information related to
trauma patients, created in 1913 by the American College of Surgeons.
NTDB (National Trauma Data Bank): Published a definition of a "trauma

,Registry Currency ANS >>> 80% of records are abstracted and closed
within 60 days of discharge.

injury prevention
Bar Graphs ANS >>> A graphic means of quantitative comparison by

Ex: graphs Leaders
external Partners
coresearcher’s
deal if the above ANS >>> deal of the above

patients) can be visualized by a bar chart, showing different heights for
comparative periods of time.
Trends: Series of consecutive info/data that is moving upward or
downward as time progresses. Easily visualize a trend over time.
Filters ANS >>> Tools that can be used to gather data into defined groups,
