RCoA-CR&I oversees all Royal College of Anaethetists research projects, including: NAP's, SNAP's, NELA and PQIP. Vision is to improve patient care, health and outcomes through research.
The 8th National Audit Project is officially underway, with the baseline surveys being released this week. Thank you to the more than 500 anaesthetists who have already filled out their individual survey. Encourage everyone else to fill out theirs and contribute to #NAP8!

The #SNAP3 team are pleased to share our new publication on post-op outcomes in older patients with frailty & multimorbidity.
Findings support universal frailty screening & more meaningful shared decision making. ow.ly/YWR350VZ4p7

The #SNAP3 audit gives insight into frailty & delirium in older surgical patients.
At #Anaesthesia2025 @claireswarbrick.bsky.social
highlights higher frailty = higher delirium risk. The solution? Routine frailty screening on patients over 60 before surgery.
A small step with big impact!
Good presentation by @claireswarbrick.bsky.social on delirium and anaesthesia, in my opinion probably the least understood and appreciated post-op complication, and one that as anaesthetists I think we can influence. #Anaesthesia2025

The anaesthetic national audit projects are some of the most powerful in the UK.
We have a sneak peek at #SNAP3, looking at our older surgical patients, their frailty and any delirium experienced.

Lots of excitement at #Anaesthesia2025 about #NAP8. @ajrmacfarlane.bsky.social shares the progress so far.
NAP8 will cover central neuraxial blocks, peripheral nerve blocks, local anaesthetic infiltration, periop nerve injury & spinal cord injury - a big topic!

Dr David Saunders tells us the impact of NELA >1000 saved per year due to its impact.
#Anaesthesia2025 @rcoanews.bsky.social but more could be saved if pathway to theatre cut to recommended 6 hours 10% currently meet that standard.
