If these are not achievable in the short term, a more appropriate standard should be set based on discussions with local clinicians. However, the standar

The tool is in two sections. The first is based on the key priorities for implementation relating to c

Suggestions on where you might find relevant information are included, although this may be different in your organisation. Patient groups and sampleThe patient group relevant to this audit is people over 18 years underg

An appropriate sample should be selected in line with your local clinical audit strategy.Data sourcesThe audi

Suggestions are indicated on the tools.Re-auditWhether or not the audit findings meet the standard, re-auditing is a key part of the audit cycle. If the first data collection and anal

Depending on the nature of the changes, this could take weeks or months. This process should be continued until the results of the audit meet the stan
