Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons (IACTS) views routine systematic collection of data related to each surgical procedure and the monitoring of that data as the cornerstone of best practice. IACTS hopes that knowledge of performance will lead to improved outcomes.
The IACTS database committee welcomes feedback from participating sites on improving this initiative.
Mission
The mission being “To establish and maintain a database for the Indian Association of Cardiovascular-Thoracic Surgeons (IACTS) enabling data collection of cardiac thoracic surgical procedures, thus help surgeons provide high quality care through education and evidence-based research”.
