MASLD-CARE: A National Implementation Audit of a MASLD Clinical Care Bundle in the United Kingdom


The Yorkshire and Humber Gastroenterology Audit and Research Trainee Network (YaHGuT) is launching MASLD-CARE, a national multicentre quality improvement project. We are inviting hepatology and gastroenterology teams across the UK to participate.

The 2022 National NAFLD Audit identified significant variation in the quality of MASLD care across UK hospitals. MASLD-CARE aims to improve patient care by implementing standardized clinical care bundle and evaluating adherence to the 11 UK MASLD quality standards.

Participating centres will be asked to introduce MASLD care bundle into routine outpatient practice for at least three months, followed by a four-week retrospective audit of eligible new patients. All supporting documents, including the protocol, care bundle and instructions for local audit registration, will be provided.

We are now recruiting centres nationally! If you are interested in participating, please register your hospital using our online expression of interest form.

You can download the instructions here.

We encourage you to share this opportunity with your hepatology and gastroenterology colleagues and regional trainee research networks.
