“SCIP MEASURES HAVE BECOME AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF HOI’S MULTIFACETED PATIENT SAFETY CULTURE. HAVING A SKILLED SURGICAL TEAM THAT EMBRACES SCIP MEASURES AND OPERATES IN A SAFE, CLEAN ENVIRONMENT HAS LED TO THE SUPERIOR OUTCOMES THAT OUR ORTHOPEDIC PATIENTS ENJOY.”

SURGICAL CARE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT (SCIP)
The Surgical Care Improvement Project is a national quality partnership of organizations interested in improving care. The following SCIP measures focus on reducing the incidence of complications that can occur following surgery by adhering to best practices.
Studies have demonstrated that the risk of infection increases progressively with greater time intervals between antibiotic administration and skin incision.
Antibiotics within One Hour before Incision
This measure of optimal care uses the “all-or-none” methodology to determine if a patient received all of the recommended treatment for which he or she was eligible. It helps ensure the right care, for every person, every time.
