Creation of aNSQIP Specific OR Log KERRY CARDWELL, RN & CHERYL SIBBELEE, RN, BScN Surgical Clinical Reviewers Royal Inland Hospital (RIH), Kamloops
IN THE PAST • Old OR log included everything • Very cumbersome for case selection • Time consuming • Lengthy report
TEMPORARY SOLUTION • Brainstorm ideas to simplify log • Had NSQIP custom fields created • Contained NSQIP exclusion criteria (i.e. <18, OB etc) • Length of OR Log reduced
DEVELOPMENT UNDERWAY • Through persistence gained the attention of Executive Administration • Drafted up sample • Presented to Senior Executive Team • Submitted draft as priority to IMIT
NEW LOG • Increased NSQIP collectable variables • Enables more information in one location • CPT code included on log and continually being updated • Length of NSQIP OR Log approx ¼ of what it was originally
BENEFITS OF NEW OR LOG • Able to share with other sites and programs within Interior Health Authority • Continuity in selection and use of CPT codes • Less time selecting cases • More time freed up to audit
CONTACTS • Coordinators & SCRS @ Royal Inland Hospital: • Kerry.cardwell@interiorhealth.ca • Cheryl.sibbelee@interiorhealth.ca
