 Synopsis: 

We are very proud that the latest National Emergency Laparotomy Audit (NELA) report shows Stepping Hill Hospital among the top four trusts nationally for survival after emergency laparotomy — and the highest-performing general hospital.

In this session, we’ll explore some of the factors behind this success, including the strong collaboration between surgical, anaesthesia and critical care teams and our commitment to a data-driven approach to improvement."

Learning Objectives:

1. To understand how effective collaboration between surgical, anaesthesia and critical care teams can improve outcomes after emergency laparotomy.
2. To explore practical ways to optimise peri-operative care and escalation processes.
3. To recognise how using NELA data can support ongoing quality improvement and shared responsibility for patient care.
