  1. Screening Maneuvers Improvement Facilitator Training Session 1 Day 1

  2. Objectives • To introduce the 12 maneuvers, and review why they were selected for ASaP • To briefly review the clinical aspects of the maneuvers • To introduce the concept of the ASaP screening bundle

  3. We’ve come a long way, baby… ASaP Maneuvers

  4. “Evidence-based” Practice : Wikipedia The conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of individual patients to estimate the risk of benefit and harm. It is derived from high-quality research on population samples, to inform clinical decision-making.

  10. Overview of clinical stuff…

  11. Blood Pressure (BP) • What is it? The pressure exerted by the blood against the walls of blood vessels • How is it measured? Blood pressure cuff (sphygmomanometer) Recorded: e.g. 120/80

  12. Weight & Height • What is it? Body measurements Used to calculate risk for various conditions • How is it measured? Scales & measuring stick/tape

  13. Exercise Assessment • What is it? A question: How do you exercise and how often? • How is it measured? Typically,# of minutes/week and type(s) of exercise

  14. Tobacco Use Assessment • What is it? A question regarding use of tobacco products • How is it measured? Former cigarette/chew user for how long; quit date Current cigarette/chew user: how much/day since when

  15. Alcohol Use Assessment • What is it? A question regarding alcoholic beverage consumption • How is it measured? Number of alcoholic drinks per week

  16. Influenza Vaccination/Screen • What is it? A question regarding status of annual flu vaccination • How is it measured? Yes or no

  17. Pap Test • What is it? Procedure to collect a sample of cells from the cervix to detect pre-cancerous changes or cancer • How is it measured? In clinic exam room; cervical “smear” sent to lab

  18. Plasma Lipid Profile - Fasting • What is it? A lipid profile is a group of blood tests that measures the quantity of different lipids or fats in the bloodstream. • How is it measured? Blood test at a lab

  19. CV Risk Calculation • What is it? Tool for estimating future risk of cardiovascular disease/events • How is it measured? Various factors plugged into formula = risk percentile for heart attack in next 10 years

  20. Diabetes Screen • What is it? Test for assessing risk of/presence of diabetes (disease: excess sugar in blood) • How is it measured? Fasting glucose (blood test at lab) OR Hgb A1c (blood test at lab) OR Diabetes risk calculator (formula)

  21. Colorectal Cancer Screen • What is it? Tests for indicators of cancer (i.e. blood in stool), or cancerous lesions • How is it measured? FOBT/FIT (fecal sample taken to lab) OR Flex sigmoidoscopy (minor surgical procedure - at hospital with specialist) OR Colonoscopy (minor surgical procedure - at hospital with specialist)

  22. Mammography • What is it? X-ray study of breast tissue to detect possible cancer lesions • How is it measured? By a technician at a diagnostic imaging lab

  23. The Screening “Bundle” • Providers will select a bundle maneuvers for developing screening processes. For example:

  24. Advise providers to start small… …instead of fewer screening maneuvers! …with # of patients offered screening, and build…

  25. The Screening “Bundle” • CV Risk is strongly recommended

  26. “Offers” of Screening Offer Screening Uptake Results Care Planning

  27. Summary • The 12 maneuvers selected for ASaP were selected based on supporting evidence and strong clinical importance • Providers and clinics are encouraged to select all 12 maneuvers, if possible • CV Risk is especially encouraged due to high clinical value and a current “gap” in care
