Developing sensitive quality indicators for ground inter-hospital transport of adult critically ill patients using Donabedian model

BackgroundThe complexity of inter-hospital transport (IHT) for critically ill patients poses challenges to quality evaluation. Currently, sensitive quality indicators for the entire process of IHT remain lacking. The objective of this study is to develop a set of standardized and quantifiable quality evaluation indicators for land-based IHT of adult critically ill patients.MethodsBased on the s...
