The REPLICCAR Registry and The Statewide Quality Improvement Initiative

Summary

Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death for the healthcare system and cardiac surgery has an important impact on their resolubility. Healthcare systems in the world have evolved to optimize their clinical records and thus learn from the real world through the interactivity between results, processes, and structure. When the rate of growth of healthcare costs scenario is greater than the one of Gross Domestic Product of countries, there is a considerable challenge to increment the quality of healthcare services and the primordial patient safety, as well as the necessary control and traceability of implantable devices. The association and correlation of patients' demographic and clinically relevant information with the resources required for the care provided for each stratum represent the possibility to adapt, improve and innovate the healthcare programs; This will allow improving the optimization of the therapeutic protocols and the creation of related research areas, aiming to promote more equitable resources allocation, increase access and effectiveness, as well as to ascertain the magnitude of available and used resources and its impact.
