An audit examines processes and outcomes in intensive care to identify opportunities for quality improvement. It involves comparing objectives and reality by assessing structure, process, and outcomes.

Collecting data on adverse events through confidential reporting allows teams to learn from mistakes and standardize care processes. Implementing care "bundles" that group several evidence-based practices for a given condition can help improve outcomes more than single interventions alone. Regular auditing is essential for ongoing assessment and
