Draft - Trauma System Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI)

Title 63 Oklahoma Statute OS §63-1-2530.5 requires the regional trauma advisory boards to conduct trauma system continuous quality improvement activities for the region.

The purpose of continuous quality improvement is to improve trauma patient care by:

  • Measuring and evaluating the quality and effectiveness of the system of care based on the Oklahoma Trauma Triage Transport and Transfer algorithm, and established regional trauma plan.
  • Assuring state and regional trauma standards of care are met and inappropriate variations of care are minimized.
  • Prevent and decrease death and disability.

The Regional CQI Committees are sub-committees of the RTABs (Regional Trauma Advisory Boards). Members consists of representatives from Hospitals, EMS-ground and air services, and physicians reviewing system or process related issues. There are five committees:

  • Region 1 Northwest
  • Regions 2 Northeast, 4 East Central and 7 Tulsa County (combined)
  • Region 3 Southwest
  • Region 5 Southeast
