Abstract

The American Society of Plastic Surgeons (ASPS), American Academy of Otolaryngology-Heand and Neck Surgery (AAO-HNS), and the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery (AAFPRS) commissioned the multi-disciplinary Rhinoplasty Performance Measure Development Work Group to identify and draft quality measures for the care of patients undergoing both functional and aesthetic rhinoplasty. 1 outcome measures and 3 process measures were identified. The outcome looked at patient satisfaction with patient satisfaction with rhinoplasty procedures. The process measures look at motivations and expectations of the procedure, airway assessment, and non-narcotic shared decision-making strategies for pain management. All measures in this report were approved by the ASPS Quality and Performance Measures Work Group and Executive Committee, as well as the AAO-HNS Foundation, the AAFPRS, the Rhinoplasty Society, and the American Association of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons. The Work Group recommends the use of these measures for quality initiatives, Continuing Medical Education, Maintenance of Certification, Qualified Clinical Data Registry reporting, and national quality reporting programs.
