Building a Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) in Ukraine

Ukraine is currently facing an unprecedented burden of complex war trauma. But how do we move from individual surgical success to system-wide excellence? In this lecture, we explore the adaptation of the American College of Surgeons' Trauma Quality Improvement Program (TQIP) to the realities of Ukrainian healthcare.

You will discover the mechanics of the 'TQIP Lite' model designed for resource-limited settings, the critical role of a National Trauma Data Bank, and why modern Morbidity & Mortality (M&M) conferences must shift from a punitive mindset to collaborative problem-solving. The speaker also dives into practical steps like 'loop closure', tourniquet management, and infection prevention strategies gathered from real-world NGO missions alongside Med Global and the David Nott Foundation.
