Indice
Descrizione indicatore
L’indicatore ci consente di calcolare il numero di interventi di cardiochirurgia in età pediatrica eseguiti in un anno in una struttura ospedaliera.
Questo numero rappresenta il "volume" di interventi (indicatore di "
volume").
Come si legge
L’indicatore si riferisce al grado di "
competenza" delle cure prestate.
Più alto è il numero di interventi di cardiochirurgia in età pediatrica eseguiti in una struttura ospedaliera, maggiore è il grado di esperienza della struttura stessa.
Non costituisce un parametro di valutazione inerente l’esito delle cure prestate.
Fonte del dato
Programma Nazionale Esiti 2024.
Confronto tra strutture calcolato su dati 2023.
Nota bene: per tener conto di errori nell’attribuzione di condizioni/interventi a singoli ospedali, sono state escluse dalle analisi tutte le strutture con volumi di attività molto bassi in relazione alla condizione considerata (volume di attività minimo
5 casi/anno).
Valutazione istituzionale
Per questo indicatore non è presente un valore di riferimento istituzionale.
Consulta le strutture sanitarie che effettuano in un anno il maggior numero di interventi di cardiochirurgia pediatrica
Altre informazioni
Codici ICD-9-CM selezionati
Sono inclusi tutti i ricoveri, in regime ordinario, con interventi di cardiochirurgia pediatrica.
Si selezionano gli interventi cardiochirurgici individuati dai seguenti DRG: 103, 104, 105, 108 (esclusi ricoveri con codice di procedura 35.96), 110, 111, 479.
Si selezionano i ricoveri di pazienti di età fino a 18 anni (età <18 anni).
Il volume di ricoveri per interventi chirurgici è calcolato su base annuale, riferito all’anno di dimissione del ricovero.
