Communication and Health Care Lawton et al. BMJ QualSaf2012;21:369-80
Communication and Health Care • 65% of all sentinel events occur due to breakdowns in communication (JCAHO 2005) • Nurses: communication with physicians is a leading contributing factor for medical errors (NCSBN) • 7% of respondents involved in medication error in past year in which intimidation played a role (ISMP 2003) • High performing ICUs: team-oriented, shared beliefs, education, collegiality, informal but direct communication, collaborative problem-solving (Zimmerman et al. 2003) Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
ICU Physicians and ICU RN Collaboration Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality Huang, DT et al. Crit Care Med 2007 jan 35(1): 165-76 S Data
ICU Physician Rounds • Should include a multidisciplinary group of professionals as applicable: • Physicians, nurses, pharmacists, respiratory therapists • Should be conducted at bedside if at all possible • Allows patient and/or family involvement Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Crew Resource Management (CRM) • Safety training program focused on effective team management to improve performance • Targets cognitive and interpersonal skills • Goal: improve situational and self-awareness, communication, flexibility, assertiveness, adaptability • Create a culture where there is freedom to question authority Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Communication and Aviation Accidents Aviation Safety Network Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Conventional rounds • Communication defects are common • Rounds are generally provider rather than patient centered • Discussion on rounds is more divergent (brainstorming) rather than convergent (explicit plan) • Prevents effective real-time or future feedback regarding plan of care Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Rounds with Daily Goals • Creates explicit goals and enables feedback toward goals to achieve more for the patient • Standardizes communication to reduce encoding and decoding errors, and creates independent checks • Adds convergent thinking to often divergent rounds • Helps ensure diverse input Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Structure of Daily Goals Tool • Items organized by organ system • Medication review section • To Do, Disposition, Family meeting and Code status sections • What can we eliminate? Lines, labs, abx… • Safety item • Include VAP process measures • Check boxes vs open-ended vs combination • One column vs second column for night goals Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
How to Use Goals? • Be explicit • Important questions • What needs to be done for discharge? • What will we do today? • What is the patient’s greatest safety risk? • Completed on rounds and nurse reads back • Stays with bedside nurse • Modify to fit your hospital Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality

Impact on ICU Length of Stay Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Recent Data in Support of Daily Goals • Narasimhan et al. 2006: MICU • Provider understanding of goals improved • Improvement in communication scores • LOS decreased from 6.4 to 4.3 days • Agarwal et al. 2008: PICU • Provider understanding of goals improved • Trend toward decrease in LOS, not significant Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Comprehensive Unit-based Safety Program (CUSP) Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
Action Plan • Present the idea to your ICU team • Draft a daily goals form • Obtain support from one or more ICU physicians • Pilot test on a couple of patients on rounds • Get feedback from nurses and physicians • Revise and expand • Monitor physician paging, track LOS…. • Share your tool with the other teams Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality

What Should you do NOW? CUSP Preparation: 1) Assemble team 2) Schedule meetings CUSP Implementation: • Science of Safety Training for all staff • Identify Defects: How will the next patient be harmed? • Use elements of Toolkit, including Daily Goals Armstrong Institute for Patient Safety and Quality
