Examining variety and good practice in renal anaemia management
Tom Crocker – PhD student
The collaborative project
• Improving everyone’s process• Examine your own process and share what you find• Making protocols and using the website
• Ambiguity in protocols – Hard to interpret– Implicit assumptions– Can be dangerous
Example of ambiguity
• Examination of care pathways for eGov 07 conference– One example
• Do A, then either B or C?• Do A, then both B and C?• Can B and C be done at the same time?
My project
• I want to help improve processes and understanding in renal anaemia management
• I will map the processes in 12 renal units– Several days observation and some informal interviews– Model developed in correspondence with the unit
• Examine the similarities and differences• Relationship with performance measures?• Feed back to units• Evaluate effects
• Can I have some volunteers please!
