The Emergency Laparotomy Quality Improvement Care Bundle - ELPQuiC

Dr Nial Quiney and Dr Geeta Aggarwal detail the development of ELPQuiC, an important quality improvement project.

In the video Dr Nial Quiney, consultant anaesthetist at the Royal Surrey County Hospital and leader of ELPQuiC, and Dr Geeta Aggarwal, a fellow working alongside Dr Quiney, detail the development of ELPQuiC, an important quality improvement project centred on improving care for patients having emergency laparotomy surgery.

They go on to examine the results of that project and the follow-on work currently being undertaken through the Emergency Laparotomy Collaborative (ELC) which is a significantly larger quality improvement project.

The images below give some more information on the ELC and the bundle of care they are promoting. For more information, we would highly recommend visiting the ELC homepage.
