Improving Outcomes in Cleft Palate Surgery Through an Audit and Feedback Intervention Directed at Surgeons

This is a pilot study to determine if an audit and feedback intervention decreases
complication rates after cleft palate surgery.

This study will determine whether a surgeon-directed audit and feedback intervention reduces
rates of oro-nasal fistula after cleft palate repair. Fistula is an important potential
complication of cleft palate repair.

The study also evaluates feasibility of standardized outcome measurement in the care of
children with cleft lip and palate, acceptability of standardized measurement, and
acceptability of the audit and feedback intervention among surgeons.

The results of this research will improve child health by enabling cleft surgeons to
critically evaluate and improve their patient's outcomes.

Inclusion Criteria:

Active surgeon performing cleft palate repair in the US or Canada.
