Sepsis
Sepsis is a complication that occurs when your body has an extreme response to an infection. It causes damage to organs in the body and can be life-threatening if not treated. Sepsis can sometimes turn into septic shock, which has a higher risk of death. Identifying sepsis early and starting appropriate care quickly increase the chances of survival. How this page works >>

Heart Attack Care
An acute myocardial infarction (AMI) or heart attack happens when one of the heart's arteries becomes blocked and the supply of blood and oxygen to part of the heart muscle is slowed or stopped. When the heart muscle doesn't get the oxygen and nutrients it needs, the affected heart tissue may die. These measures assess the extent to which some of the recommended treatments are provided, if appropriate, for most adults who have had a heart attack.

Cancer Care
External Beam Radiation Therapy (EBRT) uses high doses of radiation to destroy cancer cells and shrink tumors. It is commonly used in patients with cancer that has spread to the bone as a method to control pain with few side effects. Evidence has shown that short-term radiation treatment can have similar pain relief outcomes to long course treatment. The measure below shows how often patients receive the recommended EBRT radiation treatment. How this page works >>

Pregnancy & Delivery Care
By adhering to best practices for maternity care, hospitals can improve the chances for a safe delivery and a healthy baby. This measure shows the percentage of pregnant women who had elective deliveries 1-3 weeks early (either vaginally or by C-section) whose early deliveries weren't medically necessary. Higher numbers may indicate that hospitals aren’t doing enough to discourage this unsafe practice. How this page works >>

Use of Medical Imaging
These outpatient imaging efficiency measures give you information about hospitals’ use of medical imaging tests (like mammograms, MRIs, and CT scans) for outpatients based on the following goals:
- Protecting patients’ safety (like keeping patients’ exposure to radiation and other risks as low as possible);
- Following up properly when screening tests like mammograms show a possible problem; and,
- Avoiding the risk, stress, and cost of doing imaging tests that patients may not need.
