Reg EntExecutive Summary: “Evidence-Based Performance Measures for Rhinoplasty: A Multi-Disciplinary Performance Measure Set” was published online in Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery on February 9. This manuscript provides an overview of the Rhinoplasty Performance Measurement Workgroup, a multidisciplinary collaboration of the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery Foundation with the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, and the American Academy of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery. The workgroup developed the rhinoplasty quality measure set within the framework of the 2018 AAO-HNSF Clinical Practice Guideline: Improving Nasal Form and Function After Rhinoplasty and ultimately identified one outcome measure and three process measures. These rhinoplasty quality measures are available for Reg-ent registry participants.
