British Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition

The British Society of Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (BSPGHAN) has commissioned the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) to deliver the National Audit of Quality Standards for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition (‘the PGHAN Audit’). We seek to work with clinicians throughout the UK to improve the health outcomes for children that require gastroenterology, hepatology and nutritional services.

The National Audit will be based on the 2017 Quality Standards for Paediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition. The 2017 Quality Standards sought to improve the health outcomes and quality of life for all infants, children and young people with gastroenterology, liver or intestinal disorders by reducing the variation in care by clinicians and ensuring equitable services throughout the UK.

The National Audit will aim to define clinical pathways of paediatric gastroenterology, hepatology and nutritional services throughout the UK. We will collect and share data to support UK clinicians that require resources to improve their gastroenterology, hepatology and nutritional services.
