Abstract

The aim of this study was to assess the quality of discharge abstract data regarding admissions in which the planned treatment was not performed, in 4 hospitals in the Rome metropolitan area. The main objective was to evaluate the appropriateness of admissions through use of the Italian version of the Appropriateness Evaluation Protocol (AEP/PRUO). Inconsistencies between discharge abstract forms and hospital records were found in 95/142 (66,9%) of examined records. These were subsequently evaluated through the Appropriateness Evaluation Protocol and overall , 95,6% of inconsistent records were found to be inappropriate admissions. Monitoring V64 codes may represent an indirect indicator of appropriateness.
