Care for the Deteriorating OB Patient during a Rapid Response Event Dionne Walker MSN, RNC-OB Clinical Specialist, Women’s Services Tara Barrick MSN, RNC-OB High Risk OB Clinical Specialist
objectives • Discuss the overview and background in emergency obstetrics • Review of Global Maternal Mortality data • Describe the different roles and responsibilities of each team member during a rapid response event • Recognize the importance of communication, collaboration and teamwork during an Rapid Response event • Review of Women’s Services RRT data

background The health of the population is rapidly changing, in part related to: Obesity related complications such as hypertension and diabetes The likelihood of developing a comorbidity increases with maternal age Snapshot of today’s OB patient • Advanced Maternal Age • Today’s average age of first time mother is 3.6 years older than in 1970 • Overweight • In 2009, 24.4% of women in childbearing age were considered obese (BMI >30) • More likely to undergo cesarean birth • National rate for C-section delivery is 31.8%
Obesity 30-35% of Texans self-report as “obese”
Globally speaking… Every minute a woman dies from complications related to pregnancy or childbirth Approximately 529,000 women per year
Maternal Death Worldwide } 41% Koch, A. R., Lightner, S., & Geller, S. E. (2018)
Since 2009, obstetric emergencies have 75%associated with delivery complications 114% associated with Postpartum hemorrhage The perinatal team must anticipate and be prepared to respond to obstetric emergencies Committee Opinion #590, 2018
Recommendations Mechanism for activating a RR based on clinical criteria Multidisciplinary clinical team that responds to, assesses and manages deteriorating patients System for feedback to help mitigate and/or improve future RR events Administrative structure responsible for implementing, training and monitoring all RR events Developed a rapid response (RR) for Perinatal Safety with a focus on physiological deterioration and urgent conditions of maternal and fetal patient population
Recommendations • Planning • Resource Provision • Implementation of an Early Warning System • Implementation of a Rapid Response Team • Training • ***Emergency Drills and Simulation*** • Implementation of the Maternal Fetal Triage Index Preparing for Clinical Emergencies in Obstetrics and Gynecology Committee Opinion #590 Hospital-Based Triage of Obstetric Patients Committee Opinion #667 Committee on Patient Safety & Quality Improvement
Rapid response in the perinatal setting Women’s Services RRT DATA
RRTs by Reason FY18 – FYTD19 43% of RRTs are related to PPH
46% MBU RRTs by Location FY18 – FYTD19 22% WSU
Postpartum Hemorrhage RRTs by Location FY18 – FYTD19 86% of PPH cases occur after transfer to the MBU
RRTs by Immediate Disposition FY18– FYTD19 31% require surgical intervention
RRTs by Any Post-RRT ICU Admission FY18 – FYTD19 12% result in transfer to ICU status
RRT REBOOT • Review of team members’ role & responsibilities • Patient disposition process • Post RRT patient assessment • Procedural documentation
RRT membership in the pfw • Primary Bedside RN • 1st Emergency Responder LDU RN (ER1) • 2ndEmergency Responder Unit Charge RN (ER2) • Pulmonary Critical Care Physician (PCCM) • Hospitalist/OB Resident (PGY3) • Anesthesiologist/CRNA • Pharmacy • House Supervisor • Respiratory Therapist (RT) • Security
RRT roles & responsibilities Primary RN assumes a lead role during the RRT • Activates RRT to summon help • Remains with the patient prior to team arrival and throughout the RR event • Delegates tasks to other team members as needed • Helper to secure crash cart/PPH cart • Recorder (records details of the RR event in the RRT Navigator) • Runner (to obtain medications and supplies) • Performs ongoing focused assessment/obtains vital signs • Provides SBAR report to responding RRT • Pertinent medical/obstetric history • Other pertinent information (i.e. allergies, medications, lab results) • Indication for activating RR • Interventions performed prior to team arrival
RRT roles & responsibilities Activating Unit’s Charge RN assists the Primary RN/RR Team • Assists with medication preparation or delegates this task • Assists with procedures or delegates this task • Audits EMR to ensure documentation is complete
RRT roles & responsibilities 1st& 2nd RN Responders (ER1/ER2)LDU RN/activating unit’s charge RN who assists the Primary RN/RR Team during the event • ER1 receives SBAR from Primary RN • ER1 reports clinical observations to the team as needed • ER1 & ER2/activating unit’s Charge RN assist with clinical interventions as needed Performs a 1 hour re-assessment if the patient remains on the unit
RRT roles & responsibilities Pulmonary Critical Care Physician (PCCM) and/or Hospitalist/OB Resident (PGY3) • Performs comprehensive assessment • Determines treatment/plan of care • Enters orders as needed • Determines whether patient remains on unit versus transfer to HLOC
RRT roles & responsibilities Pharmacist • Provides emergency medications as needed
RRT roles & responsibilities House Supervisor • Room traffic control • Coordinates transfer to HLOC/room management
RRT roles & responsibilities • Respiratory Therapist (RT) • Performs respiratory assessment/treatments as needed • Provides ventilation/oxygenation as needed • Obtains blood gases if ordered
RRT roles & responsibilities Anesthesiologist/CRNA • Obtain IV access • Manages airway as needed • Assume lead role if RR escalates to OH/MTP or necessity to transfer patient to the operating room
RRT roles & responsibilities Security • Traffic control (hallways/elevators) • Elevator securement • Visitor management
RRT roles & responsibilities findings #1 The primary RN should remain with the patient throughout the RR event • Provides SBAR report to responders • Delegates tasks to other team members (i.e. recorder, runner, etc.) • Assist with medication prep/procedures/transfers #2 The RR Team members should offer coaching & mentoring to the primary RN and the activating unit’s nursing team #3 The RN responder roles/responsibilities should be shared between the LDU RNs and the activating RNs charge RN #4 Charge RN on activating unit ensures that RRT documentation is complete
Drills/Simulation • Conducted periodic drills on the two units with highest incidence of rapid response events • Focused on PPH drills and the hypertensive/eclamptic patient.
Results: a Reduction in OB hemorrhage RRTs Updated the Immediate Postpartum Postpartum Care P&P documents Implemented MEWS Implemented in-situ SIMS Aligned with AWHONN’s 3rd Stage labor Oxytocin infusion
Other initiatives • Obstetric Hemorrhage Algorithm • Adult Massive Transfusion Protocol • Maternal Fetal Triage Index (MFTI) • Maternal Early Warning System (MEWS) • The Alliance for Innovation of Maternal Health (Texas AIM)
Obstetric Hemorrhage Algorithm (*related to uterine atony)
Adult Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP)
Maternal early Warning system (Mews)
Patient safety bundle: Obstetric Hemorrhage • Readiness • Recognition & Prevention • Response • Reporting/Learning
Our goal as a perinatal team: Healthy Mom, Healthy Newborn, Happy Family! #oneamazingteam
