CECBC Electronic Data Capture

As the name suggests, the Clinical Ethics Consultation Benchmarking Collaborative (CECBC) is a group of collaborators who want to learn more about clinical ethics practices in the United States, with the aim of improving the benchmarks by which we understand and assess our work. The project began as the result of a peer-to-peer problem-solving session during the 2022 UnConference sponsored by WellStar Health. At the ASBH 2023 meeting in Baltimore, the first CECBC data were presented, covering 316 hospitals who provided data during our first year of data collection.

We are currently accepting entry of data from January 1, 2023 - December 31, 2023.

If you would prefer to enter data using Excel, please visit cecbc.net to download a template spreadsheet for standardized data entry. If you are entering data for more than 15 hospitals, we recommend using this spreadsheet to streamline entry. Send the completed spreadsheet to Stowe.Teti@inova.org. Please use the file naming convention "CECBC data collection_2023_[health system OR hospital name]".

If multiple individuals will be entering data across your system, we recommend completing either the Excel spreadsheet or REDCap electronic data collection instrument together in real time. This suggestion is based on experiences of members during previous data collection periods.

Please email critesj@ccf.org for help with any technical issues with the REDCap electronic data collection instrument. 

The project has been determined to be Research Not Involving Human Subjects. A data use agreement (DUA) is available should your institution require completion before sending data. Please contact Stowe.Teti@inova for a DUA that others have used within the Collaborative.

By contributing data, you automatically become a member of CECBC, which allows you access to our annual report on trends in clinical ethics consultation and access to aggregate data you may use for benchmarking your institution. Scholars who are members of CECBC and interested in utilizing CECBC data are encouraged to propose academic studies to the Publication Group within the Collaborative. Please review the Guiding Principles document found on cecbc.net for further details.
