Quality and safety in European Union hospitals: A research-based guide for implmeenting best practice and a framework for assessing performance (QUASER)
Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2013,
"This translational study aims to design and disseminate an evidence based guide for hospitals to implement quality and safety improvement programmes, and an evidence based framework for payers to assess and monitor the quality and safety of hospitals across the EU. These outputs will be based on empirical findings from research in five partner countries. However, in addition, the development of t ...

A pharmacogenomic approach to coumarin anticoagulant therapy (EU-PACT)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
"The effectiveness of treatment with oral anticoagulants in the prevention of thrombotic disorders is well established, but these drugs are potentially dangerous because of their narrow therapeutic index. In Europe three coumarins are used: warfarin, acenocoumarol, and phenprocoumon. Genetic factors that have been recently demonstrated to change the pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of coumari ...

Operations management and demand-based approaches to healthcare outcomes and cost-benefits research (MANAGED OUTCOMES)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"The MANAGED OUTCOMES proposal explores the assumption that healthcare outcomes and costs are affected by the efficiency of service production, the time/location constrained regional structure of healthcare delivery, and the degree to which people are empowered to participate in the co-production of their care. These relationships are insufficiently understood and need to be studied to meet the ob ...

EuroDRG – Diagnosis-Related Groups in Europe: towards Efficiency and Quality (EuroDRG)
Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,
Payment systems are fundamental to any health care system, introducing powerful incentives and fierce technical design complexities. DRG-systems aim at fairly assessing the costs of patient treatment, taking into account measurable patient characteristics such as diagnosis or comorbidity – but to a varying degree also interventions chosen. Using a representative sample of inpatient data on 10-12 “ ...
