Transparency indicators do not meet the formal criteria of a quality indicator because they have no reference area and therefore do not trigger a structured dialogue. The results are independent and are not directly linked to a quality indicator.

Specialist note IQTIG Although indicators represent quality, their results do not allow a direct assessment of the quality of care (due to the lack of a reference range) and they are not suitable for direct quality comparisons (due to the lack of mathematical adjustment). However, they are usually published in direct connection with a quality indicator, the result of which is supplemented by the indicator values (imputed and supplementary indicators). They thus contribute to an increase in the comprehensibility of the quality results. The transparency indicators, which are to be distinguished from these, represent aspects of care for which there are no quality indicators, but which are nevertheless important for the presentation of the quality of care.

In pulmonary clinics, antimicrobial therapy started on an outpatient basis can be discontinued on a regular basis upon admission to determine the pathogen. This can lead to computational abnormalities, but does not have to be an expression of a quality problem.

Specialist note IQTIG Risk adjustment compensates for the different patient structure in different facilities. This leads to a fair comparison of the different facilities, since patients have individual risk factors (such as concomitant diseases) that systematically influence the quality outcome without one facility being held responsible for, for example, more frequent complications resulting from this. With the help of risk adjustment, the quality outcome of a facility with many high-risk cases can be statistically compared more fairly with the quality outcome of a facility with many low-risk cases. More information on reference ranges can be found at the following link: https://iqtig.org/dateien/dasiqtig/grundlagen/IQTIG_Methodische-Grundlagen-V1.1_barrierefrei_2019-04-15.pdf The reference range indicates the results at which the quality of care of a facility can be assumed to be good, although deviations are possible. The reference range thus sets a benchmark for the assessment of facilities. A facility with a result outside the reference range is initially considered conspicuous. This usually entails an analysis by means of Structured Dialogue. It should be noted that a quality result outside the reference range is not synonymous with a lack of quality of the facility in the quality aspect considered here. The deviation can also be due to faulty documentation or individual cases, for example. Quality is assessed within the framework of the established procedure in the Structured Dialogue. More detailed information on reference areas can be found under the following link: https://iqtig.org/dateien/dasiqtig/grundlagen/IQTIG_Methodische-Grundlagen-V1.1_barrierefrei_2019-04-15.pdf.

Specialist note IQTIG Although indicators represent quality, their results do not allow a direct assessment of the quality of care (due to the lack of a reference range) and they are not suitable for direct quality comparisons (due to the lack of mathematical adjustment). However, they are usually published in direct connection with a quality indicator, the result of which is supplemented by the indicator values (imputed and supplementary indicators). They thus contribute to an increase in the comprehensibility of the quality results. The transparency indicators, which are to be distinguished from these, represent aspects of care for which there are no quality indicators, but which are nevertheless important for the presentation of the quality of care. More detailed information on indicators can be found under the following link: https://iqtig.org/dateien/berichte/2018/2018-03-22_IQTIG_Kez-Umsetzungskonzept.pdf. The quality result is only comparable with the previous year's results to a limited extent due to adjustments of the calculation rule or inclusion or exclusion criteria of the cases to be documented in the QA procedure. More detailed information on the adjustments made can be found in the description of the quality indicators under the following link: https://iqtig.org/qs-verfahren/

Specialist note IQTIG The reference range indicates the range in which the results of an indicator are assessed as normal. A facility with a result outside the reference range is initially computationally conspicuous, which usually results in an analysis in the structured dialog. It should be noted that an indicator result outside the reference range is not synonymous with a poor quality of the facility in the quality aspect considered here. The deviation can also e.g. be traceable to incorrect documentation or to individual cases. Quality is assessed in the context of the structured dialogue with the institutions.
