The Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP)

The Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) is a national effort aimed at improving the care of severely injured patients. It collects and analyzes data from trauma centers to identify strengths and areas for improvement in treatment, protocols, and patient outcomes. By benchmarking performance and sharing best practices, TQIP helps hospitals enhance trauma care, reduce complications, and save lives. Essentially, it's a coordinated approach to ensure that injured patients receive the highest quality care possible through continuous learning and quality improvement.
