The Society of Thoracic Surgeons (STS) National Database is the foundation for most of the Society's quality, research, and patient safety activities. Beginning in January 2016 and repeating each year, The Annals of Thoracic Surgery will publish a monthly Database series of scholarly articles on outcomes analysis, quality improvement, and patient safety. Six articles will be directly derived from the STS National Database and will be published every other month: three articles on outcomes and quality (one each from the STS Adult Cardiac Surgery Database, the STS Congenital Heart Surgery Database, and the STS General Thoracic Surgery Database), and three articles on research (one from each of these three specialty databases). These six articles will alternate with five additional articles on topics related to patient safety. The final article, to be published in December, will provide a summary of the prior 11 manuscripts. This series will allow STS and its Workforces on National Databases, Research Development, and Patient Safety to convey timely information aimed at improving the quality and safety of cardiothoracic surgery.
胸外科医师协会（STS）国家数据库是该协会开展大多数质量、研究和患者安全活动的基础。从2016年1月开始并每年重复，《胸外科年鉴》将每月发表一系列关于结果分析、质量改进和患者安全的学术文章。六篇文章将直接来源于STS国家数据库，每隔一个月发表：三篇关于结果和质量的文章（分别来自STS成人心脏手术数据库、STS先天性心脏手术数据库和STS普通胸外科手术数据库各一篇），以及三篇关于研究的文章（来自这三个专科数据库各一篇）。这六篇文章将与另外五篇关于患者安全相关主题的文章交替发表。最后一篇文章将于12月发表，将对之前的11篇手稿进行总结。本系列将使STS及其国家数据库、研究发展和患者安全工作团队能够及时传达旨在提高心胸外科质量和安全的信息。
