  9. Atlantic Node AMI Virtual Learning Collaborative The Model for Improvement

  10. Measurement *Langley GL, Nolan KM, Nolan TW, Norman CL, Provost LP **The Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle was developed by W. E. Deming

  11. Overview Measures & Targets Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria Individual Data Collection Form Elapsed Time by Patient Worksheet Measurement Worksheet Atlantic Node

  12. What are OurMeasures? % STEMI or new LBBB who received thrombolytic within 30 minutes of arrival at ED. % STEMI or new LBBB who received an ECG within 10 minutes of arrival at ED. Atlantic Node

  13. What are ourTargets? 90% STEMI or new LBBB receive thrombolytic within 30 minutes of arrival at ED. 90% STEMI or new LBBB receive an ECG within 10 minutes of arrival at ED. Atlantic Node

  14. Why These Measures? Atlantic Node • Based on CCORT AMI Indicators (CMAJ 2008: 179: 909-15) • Time is muscle (myocardium) • Two measures which are key to timely thrombolysis • We know there is room for improvement

  15. Measure 4.0A Lytic Within 30 Minutes of Arrival Denominator Inclusion: All STEMI or new LBBB confirmed by ECG Lytic within 6 hours of arrival at ED Lytic as primary reperfusion therapy Exclusion: Patients with NSTEMI, non-Q wave or subendocardial MIs Transfers in who received lytics in another acute care facility or ambulance Under 18 years of age Atlantic Node

  16. Measure 4.0A Lytic Within 30 Minutes of Arrival Numerator All those in the denominator who received lytic within 30 minutes of arrival at ED Atlantic Node

  17. Measure 10.0ECG Within 10 Minutes of Arrival Denominator Inclusion: Patients admitted through Emergency with diagnosis of STEMI or new LBBB confirmed by ECG Exclusion: Received a lytic in ambulance Transferred from another acute care facility Under 18 years of age Atlantic Node

  18. Measure 10.0ECG Within 10 Minutes Numerator All those in the denominator who had an ECG within 10 minutes of arrival at ED If ECG completed by EMS (pre-hospital) this is considered within 10 minutes of arrival at ED Atlantic Node

  19. Additional Process Measures Atlantic Node • Time 1st medical contact to 1st ECG • Time 1st medical contact to arrival at ED • Time diagnostic ECG done to read by MD • Time diagnostic ECG read by MD to thrombolysis

  20. Individual Data Collection Form Atlantic Node Use a data sheet for each month of data submission Each workbook has 2 worksheets – (1) Individual pt. times & (2) Elapsed time by pt

  21. Individual Data Collection Form Atlantic Node Enter name of hospital, Select Month and Year from drop down box

  22. Individual Data Collection Form Atlantic Node Enter individual pt data as they arrive in ED MRN = Medical Record Number - Use identifier of your choice

  23. Individual Data Collection Form Atlantic Node Sequential pt. # Pt. identifier optional comments about pt Enter times in appropriate cols.

  24. Individual Data Collection Form Atlantic Node • Notes: • Walk-In (pt.#1) – “1st medical contact” usually same as “Arrived ED” • Transport by Ambulance (pt.#2&#3) – “1st medical contact” occurs before “Arrived ED” • ECG and Lytics in ED (pt.#2) – “1st ECG” after “Arrived ED” and before “Lytics started” • ECG in ambulance and Lytics in ED (pt.#3) – “1st ECG” before “Arrived ED” and “Lytics started” • If ECG and Lytics in ambulance (pt.not shown) – “1st ECG” and “Lytics Started” before “Arrived ED”

  25. Elapsed Time by Pt Worksheet Atlantic Node Automatic calculations Now on second worksheet = Elapsed Time by Pt.

  26. Elapsed Time by Pt Worksheet Atlantic Node Classification of patient for measure 4.0A All elapsed times are automatically calculated from data entered on “Individual Times” worksheet

  27. Elapsed Time by Pt Worksheet Atlantic Node Number of teams meeting criteria w/i 30 mins and those not meeting criteria w/I 30 mins

  28. Measurement Worksheet Atlantic Node Enter data on “Data Entry Sheet

  29. Measurement Worksheet Atlantic Node Enter name of hospital, region and description of patient sample in ‘windows’ outlined in red.

  30. Measurement Worksheet Atlantic Node In column for appropriate month and year identify implementation stage and collection method 1. Baseline = 1st month of data submission 2. Full = after reaching goal and holding it for 3 consecutive data submissions 3. Early = everything else.

  31. Measurement Worksheet Atlantic Node Enter data from Elapsed Time / Individual Data Collection form in “red” outlined cells for Denominator Enter data from Elapsed Time / Individual Data Collection form in cell for Numerator

  33. Model For Improvement * A simple yet powerful tool for accelerating improvement The model has been used very successfully by hundreds of health care organizations in many countries to improve many different health care processes and outcomes *Langley GL, Nolan KM, Nolan TW, Norman CL, Provost LP **The Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle was developed by W. E. Deming

  34. Model For Improvement * • The model has two parts: • Three fundamental questions, • Used to establish AIM; MEASURES, AND CHANGE IDEAS. • The Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle** to test and implement changes in real work settings. The PDSA cycle guides the test of change to determine if the change is an improvement. *Langley GL, Nolan KM, Nolan TW, Norman CL, Provost LP **The Plan-Do-Study-Act cycle was developed by W. E. Deming

  35. Model For Improvement • Action Oriented • Trial and Learning • Leadership

  36. Team Charter Operationalizes the Improvement Model • Improvement theory • Project management

  37. Team Charter To ensure a common understanding and focus by making explicit: • AIMS • Measurement targets • Changes • Timelines • Roles and Responsibilities To communicate effectively with senior leadership and other stakeholders

  38. Team • Review your system: - Who does the patient see? - Who is needed to implement? - Who needs to know about the changes? - Who supports the changes? • Work with those who will work with you • Each member is a champion in their area

  39. Team • Core Team Members • Clinicians providing care i.e. nurses, technicians, therapists, paramedic • Clinical and administrative leaders i.e. Clinical Nurse Specialist, Nurse Manager • Ad Hoc • Physician Champion • Quality Improvement personnel • Clerical Support

  40. Roles and Responsibilities Team Leader • Completing and clarifying the team charter in a manner that ensures the support of team members and team sponsor. • Organizing and running effective meetings and maintaining team records ie minutes, correspondence, improvement data • Facilitating work within the team and ensuring participation at and between meetings • Communicate about the improvement work with the sponsor, team members, stakeholders and the larger organization.

  41. Roles and Responsibilities Team Members • Sharing content knowledge, skill and experience • Communicating and developing a shared understanding within the team of the work process to be improved or changed. • Testing change ideas within the team and in the real work context • Leading and supporting coworkers to adapt the new process • Completing tasks or assignments within and between meetings • Establishing two-way communication with their colleagues and the team

  42. Roles and Responsibilities Team Sponsor • Clarifying the improvement mandate and aligning it within the organizations strategic and operational objectives • Connecting and communicating with appropriate stakeholders • Allowing time and other resources • Establishing an accountability mechanism • Facilitating the work of the team within the larger organization. • Engaging a team leader and a coach • Initiating the team charter

  43. Roles and Responsibilities Team Coach • Facilitating the use of improvement tools and techniques • Monitoring and facilitating healthy team behaviors • Providing technical expertise and guidance focusing on team process • Supporting the team leader to plan effective team meetings • Assisting with measurement for improvement eg data collection, submission, analysis and display

  44. Exercise #1 Identify your team members and assign Roles and Responsibilities.

  45. Participant Sharing Team Example

  46. AIM • What are you going to do? • How much? • By when?

  47. Bold Aim, Firm Deadlines • Align aim with strategic goals of the organization • Write a clear and concise statement of aim • Make the target for improvement bold and unambiguous • Include deadline • Include scope, boundaries, constraints and anything else that is needed to keep the team focused
