چکیده انگلیسی
Whilst quality measures are integral to the maintenance of a high standard of patient care, high-quality care remains a complicated concept to define in the context of acute care. In this article we explore how quality can be measured in the intensive care unit. Standard outcome metrics such as mortality are tangible comparators, but do not offer a comprehensive assessment of quality for the complex heterogeneity of the Intensive care population. We explore the Donabedian model as a means to describe the importance of outcomes, processes, structure and environment to inform the measurement of quality. These concepts can be more abstract and difficult to measure but can provide significant insight into the culture of a unit and the resulting performance, and thus provide a more comprehensive measure of quality.
