The most common tool for this type of analysis is Strengths–Weaknesses–Opportunities–Threats (SWOT). Methods: We conducted a SWOT analysis in our pediatric anesthesia program: key factors were identified in a matrix, prioritized in a score table, represented in a graph, and finally analyzed. Results: Items obtained partial scores from 20 to 120. The item “lack of clinical protocols” was given greater weight (60) and received a lower value (1), resulting in the highest partial score (60) among the negative key factors and indicating a need for greater efforts to improve this specific aspect. Conclusion: The SWOT tool proved effective in identifying safety and quality key factors, and it provided information for initiating an improvement program.}, publisher = {LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS}, title = {Strengths-Weaknesses-Opportunities-Threats Analysis for a Pediatric Anesthesia Program}, doi = {10.1097/pq9.0000000000000254}, author = {Eizaga Rebollar, Ramón and García Palacios, María Víctoria and Fernández Mangas, María del Carmen and Arroyo Fernández, Francisco Javier and Márquez Rodríguez, Carlos Miguel and Carnota Martín, Ana Isabel and Morales Guerrero, Javier and Torres Morera, Luis Miguel}, }
