Atlas of unwarranted variation in the quality of hospital care
This atlas of unwarranted variation in the quality of hospital care represents the performance of SNS acute hospitals in the treatment of those diagnoses, or surgical procedures, usually considered to measure the quality of hospital care, through the risk of in-hospital mortality in 2018.
Atlas of variations in paediatric hospitalisations. Data 2018
The update of the Atlas of variations in pediatric hospitalizations analyzes the variability in the use of five surgical procedures (appendectomy, adenoidectomy without tonsillectomy, tonsillectomy with or without adenoidectomy, inguinal hernia repair and orchidopexy) and the variability in urgent admissions for six medical diagnoses (bronchiolitis, asthma, gastroenteritis, urinary tract infections, upper respiratory infections and otitis media) in the pediatric population (0-14 years), in 2018 and its evolution since 2003
Atlas of Variations in Oncological Surgery. Data 2018
This edition of the Atlas of Variations in Medical Practice shows the variability in hospitalizations for surgical interventions to treat 8 oncological conditions (breast-conservative and nonconservartive-, uterus, prostate, colon, bladder, stomach, lung and larynx cancers) in the hospitals of the SNS in 2018 y its evolution until 2003.

Atlas for Monitoring Diabetes Care
The healthcare services research unit of the Instituto Aragonés de Ciencias de la Salud reports the variation in and the evolution of the healthcare given by the Health System through the Atlas of Variations in Medical Practice in the Spanish NHS.
This Atlas makes it possible to view the care given to patients with diabetes in each autonomous community. A series of indicators (contextual, on care to the patient with diabetes, on results of such care and on complications) are presented in the Atlas, at the level of basic health area and healthcare area. The Atlas on Diabetes also offers specific analyses by determined age groups and for men and women separately, permitting their comparison.
The type of indicators represented and the unit of analysis chosen make this Atlas a potentially useful tool for monitoring the implementation of regional diabetes.
