Creating shared learning and expertise on Audit & Feedback

Audit & feedback (A&F) is defined as a summary of clinical performance provided over a specified period of time, and aims to improve healthcare quality.
The A&F MetaLab website allows those using A&F and researchers in the field to connect and create shared learning across A&F laboratories around the world to increase the effectiveness of A&F.
Learn more about the A&F MetaLab and what we aim to achieve in our BMJ Quality and Safety article here.

Best Practices in Audit & Feedback
A group of researchers dedicated to improving healthcare outcomes by optimizing performance with Audit & Feedback (A&F) The members of the A&F MetaLab are internationally recognized leaders in the field of audit and feedback.
They have committed their expertise to developing the A&F MetaLab and promoting the use and development of audit and feedback to improve healthcare delivery and health overall.
The mission of the A&F MetaLab is to develop an international research and healthcare community to achieve the following:
- Encourage shared learning from international A&F implementation laboratories
- Engage with healthcare system partners regarding their use of A&F
- Provide a trusted source of evidence and recommendations for performing A&F
- Develop a repository of international A&F lab members and their expertise
- Encourage the promotion and uptake of A&F evidence
- Synthesise evidence from the A&F implementation lab activities
- Training for building research capacity and practical expertise in A&F
- Develop an ongoing repository of evidence from randomised tests of refinements to A&F in the various national implementation labs

What is Audit & Feedback?
Audit & Feedback (A&F) is any summary of clinical performance of healthcare provided over a specified period of time.
This summary may be given in a written, electronic or verbal format ( Jamtvedt et al. 2006 ) and may include recommendations for clinical action ( Ivers et al. 2014 ).
The summary data may have been obtained from medical records, computerized databases, or observations from patients.
