​ Dr. Kelly Mayson’s success in achieving a reduction in the​ incidence of anemia​ in gynaecology oncology and radical cystectomy patients presenting for major abdominal surgery was due to a significant increase in the referrals to the Perioperative Blood Management Program (PBMP) and the treatment of iron deficiency anemia. The PQI initiative enabled Dr. Mayson to lead a multidisciplinary working group of physicians from multiple specialties and hospital staff to support the quality improvement work. The PQI project team has provided complex data analysis and technical support to consolidate and analyze large datasets to inform decision-making. Dr. Mayson completed a rapid-fire presentation on this work at the BCPSQC Quality Forum in February 2019. Read about it here.  

Dr. Mypinder Sekhon’s work, supported by the PQI team, includes the implementation of a neurocritical care program at VCH. The implementation of strategies for patients with traumatic brain injuries, which allows for the optimization of the brain's metabolism and for personalized care of the patient, has led to ground-breaking outcomes for patients.
