WELCOME

On behalf of the STS Workforce on National Databases, I am pleased to welcome you to the 2023 Advances in Quality & Outcomes (AQO): A Data Managers Meeting which features sessions for all four components of the STS National Database. This year’s meeting will be held virtually, from September 26-29, 2023.

This meeting includes live sessions at scheduled times and recorded programs that you can watch at your convenience. Speakers will offer the latest information about the Database, including version upgrades and new features, as well as provide timely tips on improving data collection and abstraction. You can also review and vote on your favorite e-poster.

Data managers and surgeon leaders will come together to share valuable research and best practices with the goal of improving data collection and patient outcomes. STS recognizes that data managers are the backbone of the Database, which is why this meeting has been designed specifically for you! Your contributions are vital to the success of many quality initiatives that ultimately lead to better patient outcomes.

Thank you for being here. I am confident that you will benefit from this educational and interactive experience. Enjoy the meeting!
