The Nuffield Department of Anaesthesia in Oxford is the largest clinical department in our trust. We are based across five different sites, with more than 200 anaesthetists. Our department has a strong history of engaging in national projects, including the National Audit Projects (NAPs).
One component of the latest NAP (NAP7) was a baseline survey of all anaesthetists in the UK. We identified that tracking and responding to more than 200 survey participants posed a significant challenge. In this article, we seek to describe how technological solutions can aid participation, compliance tracking, and survey administration.
