Background And Objective: This study aimed to analyze baseline predictors of visual response in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) who have undergone lapses in treatment with anti-VEGF therapy. The mainstay treatment option for nAMD is intravitreal vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (anti-VEGF) therapy. Given the chronic nature of nAMD, patients who undergo lapses in treatment with these agents can have progression of their disease.

The quality assurance procedure for coronary surgery and heart valve interventions (QS KCHK) is designed to systematically evaluate and enhance the quality of complex cardiological interventional and cardiac surgical procedures. In this respect, the inclusion of indicators based on routine data facilitates the efficient and standardized analysis of the long-term quality of treatment; however, experiences from the first feedback procedures show that the use of social data is associated with challenges. For example, for the rehospitalization rates due to heart failure nonspecific exclusions and the lack of a differentiation between comorbidities and primary complications lead to distortions.
