  1. The American Board of Pediatrics:Efforts in Patient Safety and Maintenance of CertificationWednesday, December 5, 200712:00 – 1:00 p.m. EST

  3. This activity was funded through an educational grant from the Physicians’ Foundation for Health Systems Excellence.

  4. Disclosure of Financial Relationships and Resolution of Conflicts of Interest for AAP CME Activities Grid The AAP CME program aims to develop, maintain, and increase the competency, skills, and professional performance of pediatric healthcare professionals by providing high quality, relevant, accessible and cost-effective educational experiences. The AAP CME program provides activities to meet the participants’ identified education needs and to support their lifelong learning towards a goal of improving care for children and families (AAP CME Program Mission Statement, August 2004). The AAP recognizes that there are a variety of financial relationships between individuals and commercial interests that require review to identify possible conflicts of interest in a CME activity. The “AAP Policy on Disclosure of Financial Relationships and Resolution of Conflicts of Interest for AAP CME Activities” is designed to ensure quality, objective, balanced, and scientifically rigorous AAP CME activities by identifying and resolving all potential conflicts of interest prior to the confirmation of service of those in a position to influence and/or control CME content. The AAP has taken steps to resolve any potential conflicts of interest. All AAP CME activities will strictly adhere to the 2004 Updated Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) Standards for Commercial Support: Standards to Ensure the Independence of CME Activities. In accordance with these Standards, the following decisions will be made free of the control of a commercial interest: identification of CME needs, determination of educational objectives, selection and presentation of content, selection of all persons and organizations that will be in a position to control the content, selection of educational methods, and evaluation of the CME activity. The purpose of this policy is to ensure all potential conflicts of interest are identified and mechanisms to resolve them prior to the CME activity are implemented in ways that are consistent with the public good. The AAP is committed to providing learners with commercially unbiased CME activities.

  11. Learning Objectives Upon completion of this activity, you will be able to: • Discuss the role of the American Board of Pediatrics (ABP) in improving children’s health care quality and safety. • Apply the new Maintenance of Certification process to your own individual situation. • Describe the role of the ABP in specific projects to improve knowledge and delivery of safe care to children.

  12. Patient Safety as a Professional Competency The American Board of Pediatrics: Efforts in Patient Safety and Maintenance of Certification Safer Health Care for Kids Webinar Dec 5, 2007 Paul V. Miles MDVice President for Quality and Practice Assessment American Board of Pediatrics

  13. To Err is Human: The IOM recommended that standards for provider competence and knowledge of patient safety be developed and that assessment and reassessment on a periodic basis be done. P Miles ABP

  14. “The ability to assess and systematically improve the safety of medical practice is an essential competency of every certified physician.” …..ABMS-CMSS Joint Planning Committee, December 2002 P Miles ABP

  15. Six Core Physician Competencies Applied to Patient Safety • Patient care • Medical knowledge • Interpersonal and communication skills • Professionalism • Practice-based learning and improvement • Systems-based practice (Adopted by the ACGME and all twenty four ABMS specialty boards) P Miles ABP

  16. Person Approach vs. System Approach “Naturally enough, the associated countermeasures are directedmainly at reducing unwanted variability in human behavior. Thesemethods include poster campaigns that appeal to people's senseof fear, writing another procedure (or adding to existing ones),disciplinary measures, threat of litigation, retraining, naming,blaming, and shaming. Followers of this approach tend to treaterrors as moral issues, assuming that bad things happen to badpeople what psychologists have called thejust world hypothesis.1” P Miles ABP Reason, J BMJ 2000;320:768-770 ( 18 March )

  17. Person Approach vs. System Approach “The basic premise in the system approach is that humans are fallible and errors are to be expected, even in the best organizations.Errors are seen as consequences rather than causes, having theirorigins not so much in the perversity of human nature as in "upstream"systemic factors.” P Miles ABP Reason, J BMJ 2000;320:768-770 ( 18 March )

  18. Dreyfus Model for Learning • Novice • Advanced beginner • Competent • Proficient • Expert P Miles ABP

  19. Medical Career Continuum • Novice………………………Medical student • Advanced beginner…….Beginning resident • Competent………..…………Senior resident • Proficient………….…7-10 years into career • Expert……...…....Senior faculty/practitioner P Miles ABP

  20. Improvement Focus Educational System Improvement Number of Pediatricians Residents Faculty Standard Novice – Competent - Expert P Miles ABP

  21. Team and System Competency • The same progression from novice to expert applies to teams and microsystems • The ABP will accept team data for certification of individuals P Miles ABP
