Quantifying Quality ImprovementThe NCDR®, an initiative of the American College of Cardiology Foundation®, began in 1997 to help health care provider groups and institutions respond to increasing requirements to document their processes and outcomes of care in the cath lab setting. Today, the NCDR is the most comprehensive, outcomes-based quality improvement program in the United States encompassing five hospital-based registries and one practice-based registry representing 10.6 million+ patient records, 216 clinical abstracts and 70 published manuscripts.
As a trusted, patient-centered resource, the NCDR is uniquely positioned to help medical professionals and participating facilities identify and close gaps in quality of care; reduce wasteful and inefficient care variations; and implement effective, continuous quality improvement processes.

Providing Answers That Advance Cardiovascular CareNational in scope, the NCDR represents a substantial patient population and millions of records, giving it the deep resources needed to support credible insights. The NCDR Research Network™ encompasses the ways in which NCDR data is being used to answer critical healthcare questions today. Offering two distinct opportunities for engagement, the NCDR Research Network allows individuals and organizations to conduct approved research using NCDR data, and allows hospitals, practices and cardiac care facilities to participate in government and privately funded NCDR research projects.
