  1. American College of Surgeons Dedicated to improving the care of the surgical patient and to safeguarding standards of care in an optimal and ethical practice environment

  2. What NSQIP Is ______________________________ • Web-Based data collection software • Quality improvement tool • Risk-adjusted, outcomes-baseddata • Clinically Validated data • Benchmarking

  5. Program Staffing ______________________________ • Surgeon Champion (SC) • Program Mentor/Advocate • Lead Quality Improvement Initiatives • Participate in Monthly SC Conference Calls • Surgical Clinical Reviewer (SCR) • Collect Data • Online/On-going training; CEU’s & Certification - provided by the ACS

  6. Data Collection ______________________________ • Demographics • Surgical Profile • Pre-operative Data (risk factors) • Intra-operative Data • Post operative Data (outcomes)

  7. Data Collection ______________________________ Case Selection • Sampling of all operations requiring • General anesthesia • Spinal anesthesia • Epidural anesthesia • Inpatient and Outpatient Surgical Procedures • excluding trauma and transplant

  8. A randomized sampling system called the 8-day cycle Process ensures that cases have an equal chance of being selected from each day of the week Data Collection ______________________________ Sampling Methodology

  9. Clinical vs. Administrative Data Clinical Data tends to tell us more… Data Collection ______________________________

  10. O/E ratio = par on a golf course – the score that is expected An O/E ratio is a mathematical construct accurately showing the risk-adjusted outcome for a specific site ‘O’ represents the total number of observed postoperative events (deaths or complications) ‘ E’ represents the number of expected events based on the preoperative risk and other factors in a given patient population An O/E ratio < 1 means that the site is performing better than expected, while a ratio > 1 indicates an excess of adverse events Risk Adjustment ______________________________ Observed vs. Expected O/E Ratios

  12. Data Needs to be Believed:Validation with Audits Audits ______________________________ Shiloach JACS 2009

  13. Real-Time and Semiannual Reports Real-time, continuously updated benchmarked online reports Pre-programmed library of reports Real-time data Not risk adjusted Able to benchmark with all or like sites Semiannual benchmarked report Risk Adjusted Available 1st and 3rd quarters Reporting ______________________________

  14. Real-Time Reports Workflow Reports Site-Level Reports Database Statistics Data Analysis ACS Reports Reporting ______________________________

  15. Reporting ______________________________

  16. How are our outcomes? SSI? Pneumonia? UTI? Reporting ______________________________

  17. Reporting ______________________________ How are our outcomes? SSI? Pneumonia? UTI?

  18. Reporting ______________________________ How are our outcomes? SSI? Pneumonia? UTI?

  19. Reporting ______________________________ Further drilling down on the data

  20. Real Time Analysesi.e,Mortality in Colectomy cases with or without UTI Reporting ______________________________

  21. Semiannual Report Reporting ______________________________ Risk adjusted for hospital-to-hospital patient mix differences.

  22. Over 40 Risk Adjusted Outcomes 30-Day Mortality & Morbidity/ Serious Morbidity O/E Ratios in All Patients 30-Day Morbidity/Serious Morbidity O/E Ratios in patients >65 Cardiac Occurrences Pneumonia Unplanned Intubation Ventilator Dependence >48 hours DVT/PE Renal Failure Urinary Tract Infection/UTI O/E Ratios Surgical Site Infection/Deep & Organ Space O/E Ratios Colorectal 30-Day Death or Serious Morbidity O/E Ratios Reporting ______________________________

  23. Reporting Interpretation of Results ______________________________ Observed to Expected (O/E) Ratio Represents the hospital’s outcomes compared to the other ACS NSQIP hospitals, adjusted for inter-hospital differences in patients’ characteristics, comorbidities, and preoperative laboratory values LOW OUTLIER: If the upper bound of the O/E confidence interval is <1.0, the hospital’s outcomes are statistically better than expected. Thus, the hospital’s outcomes are “Exemplary.” AS EXPECTED HIGH OUTLIER: If the lower bound of the O/E ratio is >1.0, the hospital’s outcomes are statistically worse than expected. Thus, the hospital’s outcomes “Need Improvement.” ACS NSQIP Hospital ID Number

  24. Return on Investment ______________________________ NSQIP Improves Outcomes and Saves Money

  25. Does Surgical Quality Improve using the ACS NSQIP? Return on Investment ______________________________ • 82% of NSQIP hospitals had decreased surgical complications • 66% of NSQIP hospitals had decreased mortality • Each hospital is projected to avoid between 250-500 complications per year – on average

  26. Return on Investment ______________________________ • Example … • If 250 complications are avoided • And each complication costs $10,000 • The potential savings is $2,500,000

  27. Beaumont Hospital saved $2.2 million and reduced average LOS by 6.5 days by reducing SSI. In 2009, the hospital estimates it prevented nearly 300 SSI’s. Surrey Memorial Hospital reduced SSI’s over 4 years for savings of $2.54 million Henry Ford Hospitalreduced LOS for annual savings of $2 million Return on Investment ______________________________

  28. Henry Ford Hospital reduced their length of stay by an average of 1.54 days after reviewing data from all patients who underwent a general, vascular, or colorectal procedure translating into an annual savings of $2 million. Surrey Memorial Hospital avoided an estimated $380,000in costs over a four-monthperiod through initiatives to reduce the number of urinary tract infections.

  30. Non-Monetary Benefits … Valid National benchmarking for surgical outcomes Provides proactive, value-oriented performance measurement before it’s dictated by outside agents Improves local market position through publicly visible improvement programs Optimizes cross-departmental partnerships and collaboration through shared knowledge Helps build high performance surgical teams and employee retention, (i.e. nurses) Offers CME’s for Surgeon Champions and CEU’s for SCR’s Return on Investment ______________________________

  31. Complete yet concise resource for health care providers and QI professionals Evidence-based Expert panel-rated Framework to: Prevent postsurgical complications Prioritize/direct QI efforts aimed at reducing incidence/impact of postsurgical complications Best Practice Guidelines ______________________________

  32. Best Practice Case Studies Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center used NSQIP data to optimize glucose and temperature control in the operating room Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital used NSQIP data to improve postoperative Renal Outcomes ______________________________ • Scripps Green Hospital used NSQIP data to reduce surgical site infection rates in vascular surgery • Morristown Memorial Hospital used NSQIP data to prevent surgical site infections
