Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats Analysis for a Pediatric Anesthesia Program.

Unlabelled: Risk management in healthcare institutions begins by first identifying the potential risks within a certain organization or specific area and then goes on to develop further strategies to reduce harm. The most common tool for this type of analysis is Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats (SWOT).

Methods: We conducted a SWOT analysis in our pediatric anesthesia program: key factors were identified in a matrix, prioritized in a score table, represented in a graph, and finally analyzed.
