Office-based and freestanding ambulatory surgical facilities have become commonplace and the surgeries they perform more elaborate. Accreditation of all outpatient surgical facilities is necessary to maintain a standard of care that safeguards the patient and reduces liability for the physician. The accreditation entities that currently dominate the industry include JCAHO (Joint Commission for Accreditation of Hospital Organizations), the American Osteopathic Association's HFAP (Healthcare Facilities Accreditation Program), and AAAASF (American Association for Accreditation of Ambulatory Surgery Facilities). All of these accrediting bodies provide standards of operation that maintain a level of care and improve patient safety. We will examine the impact of certification in the safe operation of outpatient surgical facilities.
门诊手术中心和独立的流动外科手术室已经变得很常见，它们所进行的手术也更加复杂。为了保持护理标准，保障患者安全，降低医生责任，所有的门诊外科手术室都需要通过认证。目前主导该行业的认证实体包括 JCAHO（医院组织联合认证委员会）、美国骨科协会的 HFAP（医疗设施认证计划）和 AAAASF（门诊手术设施美国协会认证）。所有这些认证机构都提供了运营标准，以保持护理水平并提高患者安全性。我们将研究认证对门诊外科手术室安全运行的影响。
