Abstract
Quality measure development has become increasingly important over the past few years, and there have been many attempts to increase the scientific literature on the subject. Measurement of quality is now an integral part of the healthcare system. This review considers recently recommended quality metrics for prolapse management, subdividing these into structural, process, and outcome metrics. The Quality in Prolapse Surgery (QuIPS) project, Choosing Wisely® campaign by the American Board of Internal Medicine (ABIM), quality measures proposed by AUGS, and the 2012 joint report from IUGA and International Continence Society (ICS) are included this review. Evaluation of adherence to quality metrics is also discussed.
