Which outcomes are measured

PW_AD087637
Why focus on these five patient health outcomes? Because, depending on what happens, these common conditions can quickly turn serious and affect the rest of your life. 
 

Cardiac Care: 
(Angioplasty) 
Angioplasty is a procedure in which a catheter-guided balloon is used to open a narrowed coronary artery that supplies blood to your heart.  
Heart Attack 
A heart attack happens when the supply of blood and oxygen to your heart muscle is slowed or stopped, usually by a clot in an artery that supplies blood to your heart.  
Heart Failure 
Heart failure means that your heart has grown progressively weaker over time, until it’s too weak to pump enough blood throughout your body. 
Pneumonia 
Pneumonia is a lung infection caused by either bacteria or viruses. It can cause difficulty breathing, fever, cough and fatigue. 
Surgical Infection Prevention 
The risk of infection after surgery is reduced by making sure patients get correct antibiotics.
