NHFD annual report 2023

The National Hip Fracture Database (NHFD) 2023 annual report is designed to help local hip fracture teams make the most of the NHFD website’s resources, recommending five quality improvement projects focused on a set of key performance indicators. The NHFD website is designed as a quality improvement (QI) platform, making data available through a portfolio of interactive run charts and benchmarking tables. This ready availability of open-access, real-time data means that this, the NHFD’s 15th annual report, can be more focused than ever before. It emphasises the importance of quality improvement with five specific improvement focuses, and in particular reports on two KPIs that are designed to examine the very first and final stages of each patient’s care.
