Perioperative Orthopedic Quality and Safety-Quarterly Newsletter
October | 2019

Welcome to the 19th newsletter from the orthopedics quality team! We are very excited to share the launch and publication of “Safety in Spine Surgery: Transforming Patient Care and Optimizing Outcomes” by our very own Dr. Michael Vitale, and co-authored by Kevin Wang (our former Quality and Performance Improvement Fellow) and Dr. Rajiv Sethi. The book covers improving care and safety for both pediatric and adult spine surgery patients. The authors are confident that it can give healthcare professionals valuable insight to take their practice and operations to the next level.
