- W1505314919 abstract "Object The authors define and examine the properties of 2 new, practice-based quality measures for the management of hydrocephalus. Methods The Surgical Activity Rate (SAR) is defined as the number of definitive operations for the treatment of hydrocephalus performed in a neurosurgical practice over the course of a year, divided by the number of patients with hydrocephalus seen in follow-up during that year. The Revision Quotient (RQ) is defined as the number of definitive revision operations performed in a neurosurgical practice in the course of a year, divided by the number of definitive initial operations during that year for patients with newly diagnosed hydrocephalus. Using published actuarial shunt survival data, the authors conducted Monte Carlo simulations of a pediatric neurosurgical practice to illustrate the properties and interpretations of the SAR and RQ. They used data from the Kids' Inpatient Database (KID) for 2009 to calculate RQs for hospitals accounting for more than 10 admissions coded for initial CSF shunt insertions. Results During the initial growth phase of a simulated neurosurgical practice, the SAR approached its steady-state value much earlier than the RQ. Both measures were sensitive to doubling or halving of monthly failure rates. In the 2009 KID, 117 hospitals reported more than 10 initial shunt insertions. The weighted mean (± standard deviation) RQ for these hospitals was 1.79 ± 0.69. Among hospitals performing 50 or more initial shunt insertions, the RQ ranged between 0.71 and 3.65. Conclusions The SAR and RQ have attractive qualitative features as practice-based quality measures. The RQ, at least, exhibits clinically meaningful interhospital variation as applied to CSF shunt surgery. The SAR and RQ merit prospective field-testing as measures of quality in the management of childhood hydrocephalus." @default.
