Lets make NAP8 a regional NAP
Here at RA-UK we've been campaigning for a regional theme for the National Audit Project for years.
This time, we think we have a really strong chance, but we need your support.
The RCoA are looking for proposals, specifically with a regional theme. Please contact them using the info below:
Do you have a proposal for the 8th National Audit Project?
The RCoA Centre for Research and Improvement is accepting topic submissions for the 8th National Audit Project.
The National Audit Projects (NAPs) study anaesthesia-related complications of low incidence that are potentially serious for patients and important to patients and anaesthetists. NAPs are intended to examine, report on and drive improvements in practice.
Do you have a topic in mind that meets these criteria and would be suitable for NAP8?
How to Submit
To submit a topic for NAP8, please download and complete the proposal form and submit it to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
Guidance on Submissions
We would prefer topics related to regional anaesthesia, but topics not related to RA will also be considered.
As a guide we suggest the topic should be:
Important to patients
Important to anaesthetists
Incompletely studied in incidence or nature
Not suitable for study by other methodologies
You should also include information on any specialist societies or other organisations that may be suitable partners for your proposed topic, and whether you would be willing to act as clinical lead for the project.
Further Information
Information on previous NAPs can be found here. If you have any queries regarding the above, please contact Us.
CLOSING DATE: 5pm on Monday 12th June 2023
