Quality registry, a tool for patient advantages - from a preventive caring perspective

The results of this study could help other organizations implement quality registries or other change processes, for example new guidelines and treatment. Strategies concerning organizational structure and committed leadership could increase the usefulness of knowledge systems on all levels, which could enable continuous learning and quality improvement in health care.

“…The staff's experience of the pain was documented-not the patients'. Hence, the staff need feedback on work [29,30] and one way is by visualizing patients' pain intensity. Improvement work can help reduce financial costs by using resources in a systematic way based on clinical guidelines that are grounded in research [35][36][37][38].…”

“…The quality of operations is secured by offering staff systematic and continuous training. Hence, health care management and leadership are important influencing factors for patient safety and high-quality care [5,16,[25][26][27][28][29][30]. The staff need an effective learning environment, well-functioning communication, and competent leadership to develop a learning organization that promotes high-quality care [27,31].…”
