Morbidity and Mortality

Morbidity and Mortality Conferences

 

We use preventable, possibly preventable, and non-preventable deaths.  We use trauma scoring and other scoring benchmarks to screen for cases presented to two different panels.  It works quite well.   For preventable deaths or complications, system or personal specific changes must be addressed.    For possible preventable, the same might apply and educational points are addressed in a multidisciplinary conference.   For non-preventable deaths, they are recorded.   Individual practioner patterns are monitered.
