Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs)
The Patient Safety Indicators (PSIs) are a new tool to help health system leaders identify potential adverse events occurring during hospitalization. The AHRQ Quality Indicators (QIs) measure health care quality by using readily available hospital inpatient administrative data. Patient Safety Indicators are a set of indicators providing information on potential inhospital complications and adverse events following surgeries, procedures, and childbirth. The PSIs were developed after a comprehensive literature review, analysis of ICD-9-CM codes, review by a clinician panel, implementation of risk adjustment, and empirical analyses. [USA]
