The role of the ASA Clinical Effiectiveness Project
Publications > Recommended minimum data set > The role of the ASA...
The National ASA Clinical Effectiveness Project has as one of its longer term objectives the establishment of regional and national collaborative projects in order to produce an evidence base of clinically effective pre-hospital practice. The project's role will therefore be in supporting the adoption of the minimum data set and developing robust clinical audit tools, into which the minimum data set will feed to provide the evidence base and allow for benchmarking exercises leading to improvements in the quality and effectiveness of pre-hospital care provided by UK ambulance services.
However, if any audit tools, especially those used on a regional/ national level are to be used for comparison or collaboration, then the data and definitions used in any data collection must be uniform. This is where the minimum data set's role is of vital importance.
Any national clinical audits will act in the same way as audits designed and conducted by the Royal Colleges for doctors, there will be an obligation to carry out the audit and therefore a requirement to record the minimum data set. This will be reinforced through the closure of paramedic title and professional self-regulation.
