Comments: The ARHQ indicators are surrogate measures for how well care is delivered based on complication rates. Overall our performance shows tremendous opportunity to improve our standings and requires focused efforts to drill down on the data and look for causal relationships.
Priority PI Initiatives include:SepsisPost Op DVTIatrogenic Pneumothorax
The Clinical Documentation program will establish a consistent baseline for how complications are assigned.
Goals Actions
DVT/PE: Reduce the rate of DVT &
PE by 25% by December 2008.
Increase MonitoringProvide Feedback to PhysiciansImprove Compliance to order sets
Sepsis: Reduce hospital mortality of severe sepsis & septic shock from 50% to 40% by Jan 09
Update Sepsis GuidelinesImplement processes for early identification of sepsis and aggressive treatmentEstablish ICU/ED task force and spread learning
IAP: Reduce the rate of iatrogenic pneumothorax (IAP) from central venous catheterization (CVC) by 50% by December 08
Promote ultrasound-guided internal jugular (IJ) catheterization as the method of choice for CVCRequire all medical & surgical interns to complete CVC Website Curriculum & Simulation Program during orientationRequire that the first 5 CVCs by a house staff member be supervised by a more senior physician who has successfully inserted & documented the placement of 5 CVCs

Concurrent Surgical Audit• Concurrent audit started in Feb 08; conducted by Quality Specialist 24
hours after surgery on:– Orthopedic surgery
– General surgery patients
• “Risk level” of patient is assessed by Quality Specialist & compliance determined based on current order
• Surgical DVT Prophylaxis must be ordered and 1st drug dose given within 24 hours after surgery
• If no order or inadequate order, a “fix-it” ticket is placed in medical record so MD can order or revise prophylaxis

Incidence of Medical and Surgical Cases
ANALYSIS: The incidence of hospital-acquired DVT/PE of both medical and surgical cases decreased in Qtr 3 2008.
First quarter 2008 rate 8.37/1000 Second quarter 2008 rate 14.28/1000 Third quarter 2008 rate 8.59/1000
ACTION: Retrospective auditing of cases identified by radiology test is being conducted to assess adherence to guidelines. Process for this is under consideration to move to a concurrent audit to improve patient care and outcomes.

Action Agent Timeline
Promote ultrasound-guided internal jugular (IJ) catheterization as the method of choice for CVC
Limit use of subclavian approach to:
• access to the neck is limited (e.g., trauma/code resuscitations)• patients with suspected neck injuries• lack of other available sites
• L. Shieh to revise CVC Website Curriculum & Simulation Program to further promote IJ approach
• Drs. Maggio, Williams, Mihm & Lee to educate ED, OR & General Surgery. Drs. Mihm, Riskin and Daniels to educate ICU. Dr. Shieh to educate B2 & D1.
• I. Tokareva to develop & distribute educational materials to reinforce
Start Jan 22 & ongoing
Require all medical & surgical interns to complete CVC Website Curriculum & Simulation Program during orientation (“Bootcamp” for surgical interns)
• Drs. Shieh, Maggio, Williams, Mihm & Lee
• Monitor quarterly IAP rates for impact
June 30
GOAL: Reduce the rate of iatrogenic pneumothorax (IAP) from central venous catheterization (CVC) by 50% by December 08.
Action Plan
• The evidence– Early Goal-Directed Therapy– Initiation of Appropriate Antimicrobial
Therapy– Treatment with Hydrocortisone– Activated Protein C– Glucose Control– Lung Protective Strategies
• Goal of 2008 SHC Quality Initiative on Severe Sepsis and Septic Shock: Reduce hospital mortality by 10% from Jan 08 to Jan 09
• May 2008: Initial education of ICU Guidelines for Severe Sepsis & Septic Shock
• December 2008:Epic order sets revised to reflect changes in guidelines.
ANALYSIS:. 25% of cases received antibiotics within one hour of identification. Appropriate antibiotics were given in nearly all of the cases. In 40% of the cases, antibiotic were given >120 minutes, in 60% antibiotics were given within 64 minutes on average. ACTION: Measure process indicators in context of when SS/SS management guideline algorithm started. Map process to determine areas for improvement.

ANALYSIS: Poor compliance in ordering steroids for cases failing therapy. Steroids were given only 25% of the time. Glucose control was reached in 65% of the cases. Of the 35% of cases with BG > 150, mean BG was 176. ACTION: Educate physicians to document rationale for not giving steroids in next quarterly audit. Work with ICU team, nursing groups to determine root causes for elevated BG>150 after 24 hrs.
