clinical pathwaysclinical pathwaysSome say that the patient care
process is a process that is full of art "high value". we look at
the fact that in caring for patients, doctors sometimes provide
services that varies according to science and "feel" they have.,
This variation is necessary, considering each patient also has a
variety of conditions when the body reacts to drug and
disease.Clinical pathway is a flow that shows in detail the
essential stages of health services including the expected results.
Simply we can say that clinical pathways is a workflow that
illustrates the process started when the patient admission to
return of the patient. Clinical pathways provide minimum service
standards and ensure that the services are not forgotten and timely
execution. Clinical pathways have many other names such as:
Critical care pathways, integrated care pathway, Coordinated care
pathway, Caremaps, or Anticipated recovery pathway.Clinical
Pathwaysclinical pathwaysAccording to dr. Hanevi Djasri, MARS,
consultant of UGM, there are around seven key goal of implementing
clinical pathways:(1)choose the best practice patterns of a wide
variety of patterns of practice,(2) sets the standards expected of
treatment duration and should use of clinical procedures,(3) assess
the relationship between the various stages and different
conditions in a process and develop a strategy to coordinate in
order to produce a faster service with fewer stages,
(4) provide information to all staff involved on a common goal
that must be achieved from a service and what their role in the
process,(5) provides a framework for collecting and analyzing data
service process so that providers can determine how often and why a
patient does not get service in accordance with the
standards,(6)reduces the burden of clinical documentation(7)improve
patient satisfaction through enhanced patient education (eg by
providing more accurate information about the service plan).
clinical pathwaysConventionally, clinical pathways are written
in matrix form with aspects of the service on the one hand, and the
time of service on the other. The time interval is usually in a
matter of days following the daily clinical instruction, but this
can vary depending on the journey and progression of the disease or
actions (eg, clinical pathways for chronic diseases may choose a
time interval of a week or month). Generally clinical pathways
developed for the diagnosis or actions that are "high-volume",
"high-risk" and "high-cost". Clinical pathways developed in the
hospital, but is now gradually been introduced to other health care
facilities such as nursing home and home healthcareclinical
pathwaysWith the implementation of clinical pathways, expected
patient actually received the services required under the condition
that the costs incurred can be according to the treatment received
and the expected results. The presence of clinical pathways can
also help doctors when performing maintenance. Details of the
stages listed in patient care clinical pathways can be a guide to
the doctor when "action". .
