2 Variation in health outcomes is an international problem 2x 4x 9x 18x 20x 36x variation in 30- day mortality rate from heart attack in US variation in bypass surgery mortality in the UK variation in complication rates from radical prostatectomies in the Netherlands variation in reoperation rates after hip surgery in Germany variation in mortality after colon cancer surgery in Sweden variation in capsule complications after cataract surgery in Sweden Variations in health outcomes can be found in care teams, within institutions, nationally, internationally 1

6 Our core belief Physicians, nurses and therapists are intelligent, creative people who must acquire and synthesize knowledge and often adapt established guidelines to make the best treatment decision for an individual patient but (as every person who works in an environment of insecurity ) they need meaningful and timely feedback in order to learn and improve 5

The puboperinealis portion of the levator ani (puboperinealis muscle, levator urethrae muscle) forms a hammock around the urethra and terminates at the perineal body between the urethra and the anterior aspect of the rectum (Fig. 3) [14]. Voluntary contraction of the puboperinealis and rectourethralis muscle pulls the urethra forward and upward, resulting closure and termination of the urinary stream [7]. Further lateral Urethral sphincter support to muscle the sphincter is is provided partially by the Mueller s covered ligaments by the prostate (ischioprostatic ligaments, Walsh s pillars) [7,10,12,15,16] (Fig. 3), which tive patients who underwent RP between May 2008 analysed.
