Improve CHD Patient Outcomes with Data-Driven Insights
With the IMPACT Registry®, gain access to a multi-institutional data set to support the development of evidence-based guidelines and review real-world performance benchmarks to guide quality improvement.
No single registry has collected sufficient national quality-focused data on the management and real-world outcomes of pediatric and adult congenital heart disease (CHD) patients who undergo diagnostic and interventional catheterizations — until now.
And with the IMPACT Registry, gain access to two modules that track electrophysiology (EP) ablation and transcatheter pulmonary valve replacement procedures. Now, EP physicians have the opportunity to participate and join their colleagues in working to improve care and treatments for pediatric and adult CHD patients.
Plus, centers from small practices to large health systems working with CHD patients can become involved in ACC's Adult Congenital & Pediatric Cardiology Quality Network, a national network of facilities dedicated to data sharing, collaborating and developing best practices.
- Highlight your hospital on ACC's patient website, CardioSmart.org, where patients and caregivers use the "Find Your Heart a Home" tool for information on cardiovascular services.
- Take advantage of the NCDR's free, online data collection tool, or retain the option to choose among our certified vendors to automate data capture.
- Stay current on the latest NCDR research publications, providing valuable insight on the delivery and outcomes of cardiovascular care provided by data from the IMPACT Registry.
- Unlimited, free access to ACC's Quality Improvement for Institutions campaigns and toolkits that help measure care and achieve quality improvement goals.
- Your hospital will be included in the Find Your Heart a Home database when you participate in ACC's quality improvement efforts. This tool allows patients to search, compare and select the right hospital for their needs.
- Have your facility be recognized in the ACC advertising insert in the U.S. News & World Report "Best Hospitals" guidebook. Every year the ACC recognizes more than 2,000 hospitals participating in the NCDR and/or ACC Accreditation Services that are committed to quality and process improvement.
