The RCSE Report
In July 2021, the Royal College of Surgeons England (RCSE) compiled an in-depth examination which included 44 clinical records linked to vascular surgery, acting on behalf of Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board (BCUHB). The findings were eye-opening and alarming. The RCSE released their report in January 2022, which shed light on critical findings and recommendations.
