Abstract
At the time of writing this paper, mortality outcomes for cardiac surgeons in the UK are being updated on the Care Quality Commission (CQC) website. The initial clamour for results to become available followed events in paediatric cardiac surgery at Bristol and recommendations from the subsequent inquiry (see http://www.bristol-inquiry.org.uk/). A decade later these published data remain unique in British medicine. More recently legislation was introduced to regulate healthcare professionals and outcomes data will form part of the evidence required. What are the lessons from cardiac surgery?
