Population Based Strategies for Standardized Surgical Care

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Hernia, Abdominal

In brief

Evidence-based guidelines to improve clinical care for abdominal wall hernia repair are common, but adherence is low. This proposal aims to evaluate a stakeholder informed Replicating Effective Programs (REP) using a randomized controlled Sequential Multiple Assignment Randomized Trial (SMART). The study team will leverage the 68-hospital Michigan Surgical Quality Collaborative Core Optimization Hernia Registry (MSQCCOHR), a statewide collaborative focused on quality improvement in hernia care. The study team will explore optimal remediation strategies for underperforming sites as well as opportunities to de-intensify interventions for responder sites.
