Key result
Computerized optical mark reader audit system successfully captures district-wide anesthetic procedures.
Why the study?
A district-wide anaesthetic audit was implemented to systematically collect and analyze data for every anaesthetic in the Derby district.
Describes the implementation and utility of a district-wide computerized anaesthetic audit system.
Supports feasibility of district-wide computerized anesthetic audit; leaves open effects on outcomes and generalizability.
A district-wide anaesthetic audit has been implemented by the Derby anaesthetic department. Data for every anaesthetic are collected on a specially designed audit form which is read into a computerised database using an optical mark reader. The implementation of the audit, problems encountered and some benefits realised are described.
