What structural measures are included for PCI assessment?
The structural measures included for PCI assessment are measure 9 (regional or national PCI registry participation), measure 10 (annual operator PCI volume) (quality improvement only), and measure 11 (annual hospital PCI volume). These structural measures can provide important contributions to the assessment of care equity and safety without imposing undue data collection burden on hospitals or practitioners. For both of the PCI case volume specific structural measures, existing standards encourage reporting.
