Mortality Indicators and Acute Trust Quality - Ian Diley
1. Mortality indicators and Acute Trust quality
Is mortality a good indicator of the clinical quality of NHS hospitals? A cross
sectional study of outlier trusts for mortality indices using quality dashboards
Ian Diley – Public Health Registrar, East of England
Dr Padmanabhan Badrinath – Consultant in Public Health Medicine, Suffolk County Council
Dr Sarah Annon – Foundation Doctor, East of England
4. Objectives
• Are high mortality indices results associated with increased
numbers of quality alerts/alarms?
Design
• Comparison between Keogh Review trusts and all NHS acute
trusts: proportion of ATQD indicators rated amber or red
(alert/alarm)
Participants and Setting
• All NHS acute trusts in England
Main outcome measure
• Proportion of alerts and alarms identified in Summer 2013

9. Conclusions
No evidence that Keogh
Review trusts were quality
outliers (as defined by ATQD)
i.e. no association between
persistent excess mortality rates
and poor performance on the
ATQD
10. Conclusions
No evidence that Keogh
Review trusts were quality
outliers (as defined by ATQD)
Primary/community care no
poorer in Keogh Review trust
localities
i.e. no association between
persistent excess mortality rates
and poor performance on the
ATQD
11. Conclusions
No evidence that Keogh
Review trusts were quality
outliers (as defined by ATQD)
Primary/community care no
poorer in Keogh Review trust

Mortality indicators alone are
not good markers of care

Primary/community care no

localities
Mortality indicators alone are
not good markers of care

Future quality monitoring
systems should follow depth
used in Keogh method
i.e. no association between
