Cosmetic Surgery - Rapid literature review
The National Safety and Quality Cosmetic Surgery Standards were partially informed by a rapid review of current literature on patient safety and quality risks for cosmetic surgery, tools, strategies and techniques to address these risks, and the effectiveness of these methods.
KP Health have prepared this report on behalf of the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care.
This report summarises current literature on patient safety and quality risks for cosmetic surgery, tools, strategies and techniques to address these risks, and the effectiveness of these methods drawn from systematic reviews published since 2013. Secondary searches were performed based on relevant references identified in the primary search to provide additional context and to better inform this work.
