The present project, called UCIs Peruanas, aims to characterize the epidemiologic profile of Peruvian ICUs and share useful information to guide health policies and strategies to improve the care of critically ill patients in the country.
In addition, the project aims to encourage the use of quality indicators and performance in the management of Peruvian ICUs and thereby improve the quality of intensive care and increase patient safety in Peru.
Similar initiatives in Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula, as part of the project “UCIs Ibero-americanas”, and in countries such as the United Kingdom (ICNARC), Australia and New Zealand (ANZICS-CORE), the Netherlands (NICE) and Belgium (MICA) are essential to improve the quality and safety of critically ill patients and are an important basis for projects that aim to improve the efficiency of the ICU and to promote clinical research.
