Oncology Subprocess

  • 12 variables across the Oncology Subprocess (Diagnosis and Follow-up) are evaluated.
  • Only procedures with diagnosis group of Primary Malignant Tumour are included.


Recruitment Timing

Warning
  • Audit of Recruitment Timing is limited to the use of the REDCap Platform starting in 2025.


Recruitment Rates

Warning
  • Annual Recruitment Rates are determined from reports by the Administrative Departments at each centre. Download the template with the information requested from this link.
  • Recruitment rates are based on the number of lobectomies and pneumonectomies reported and the number of such procedures included in ReSECT for a given year. Segmentectomies are not audited because there is not any specific CIE-10 code for it.

Surgical Activity

  • This plot illustrates the timing of surgical activity by department throughout 2024.Whenever recruitment rates are not audited, multiple wide gaps between points could serve as a surrogate, suggesting poor rates.
