The 10K: 10 000 Reasons to Race for Infection Prevention is a
new quality improvement collaborative led by the BC Patient
Safety & Quality Council (BCPSQC) in partnership with the
Specialist Services Committee* aimed at reducing post-operative
infections (Urinary Tract Infection (UTI) and Surgical Site Infection
(SSI)) by 50% by November 2016.
We will be working to support operating rooms and surgical
units of all sizes across BC to build on existing methods of data
collection, focus on areas that align with internal priorities and
take action using their current improvement methodologies.
