Abstract
The revision of medical care act has made it a requirement for advanced treatment hospital to keep track of all cases of death. Currently, each hospital has standards for determining the contents of death case confirmation, and further steps. We conducted a survey in university hospitals participating in the Japanese National University Council for Clinical Quality Management to investigate the current situation of tracking all cases of death and the issues involved in standardizing it in the future. Each hospital has different approaches to dealing with death cases, making it difficult to standardize them right now. However, we believe that sharing information on how other hospitals are dealing with death cases can lead to improvements in the quality of tracking them.
