Summary

Investigators propose a four-category triaging system to delineate and facilitate the communication and action plan for all types of obstetric OR cases via a multidisciplinary approach. Investigators omitted ambiguous terms and developed an algorithm to categorize patients according to acuity and risk. Investigators' quality improvement intervention allows for rapidly changing circumstances and accounts for both obstetric and anesthetic considerations.

Several metrics will be collected to evaluate this multidisciplinary quality improvement project, including maternal demographics, labor characteristics, and indication for surgical intervention. Additional data include level assigned, time of patient arrival in OR, type of surgery performed, and anesthetic delivered. Investigators will collect fetal delivery data, including Apgar scores and umbilical cord gases, as well as maternal delivery data, including estimated blood loss, time to uterine incision and delivery, and surgical complications.
