Old OR log included everything
Very cumbersome for case selection
Time consuming
Lengthy report
Old OR Log
Brainstorm ideas to simplify log
Had NSQIP custom fields created
Contained NSQIP exclusion criteria (i.e. <18, OB etc)
Length of OR Log reduced
Through persistence gained the attention of Executive Administration
Drafted up sample
Presented to Senior Executive Team Submitted draft as priority to IMIT
Increased NSQIP collectable variables
Enables more information in one location
CPT code included on log and continually being updated
Length of NSQIP OR Log approx ¼ of what it was originally
New NSQIP Log

Continuity in selection and use of CPT codes
