Developing an electronic SPICT TM alert SPICT TM International ConferenceUniversity of Edinburgh 2nd February 2018Dr Sarah MacLaran, Wasim Hussain, Anwar Shaikh, Aumar Tarzi, Paula Yates and Karl O’Sullivan-Smith, UHCW NHS Trust with Dr Claire Magee, Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust
Aim • To establish an electronic alert to flag patients who are being managed with a supportive and palliative approach, utilising SPICTTM as objective criteria for identification • Encouraging clinical staff who view the clinical record to focus on comfort and quality of life while still considering acute interventions as appropriate to the patient’s personal and clinical needs and preferences
Methods 1 • Engagement with local clinical consultants from key specialties managing conditions incorporated within SPICTTM • Collaboration with the University of Edinburgh to develop the Coventry and Warwickshire SPICT • UHCW NHS Trust ICT Service leads supported development of an electronic form within the Trust’s bespoke clinical database Clinical Results Reporting System (CRRS) • CRRS is utilised in UHCW NHS Trust acute hospitals University Hospital Coventry and Rugby Hospital of St Cross and is visible to primary care teams and Myton Hospice staff working in Coventry and Warwickshire
Methods 2 • The CRRS Palliative Care SPICTTM Alert identifies patients who • fulfil defined objective prognostic criteria • are likely to be within the last year of life • are being managed with a supportive and palliative approach to care • may be carrying an advance care plan • Robust clinical governance measures ensure that only senior clinicians who have completed online training can upload a CRRS Palliative Care SPICTTM Alert • The online learning module was further revised with the development of the local Electronic Palliative Care Coordination System: EPaCCS known as the "CASTLE Register Care And Support Towards Life’s End
Results • The CRRS Palliative Care SPICTTM Alert was implemented in November 2011 • Total of 1917 palliative care alerts were uploaded from 3 Nov 2011 to 31 Dec 2017 • Alerts uploaded in the last 5 years n = 1729
Total Palliative Care Alerts by Specialty Between 2013 – 2017 n = 1729
Deceased patients • 1917 total no. alerts from 3 Nov 2011 to 31 Dec 2017 • Of these patients with alerts: 1544 have now died: 81%

Conclusions • The CRRS Palliative Care SPICTTM Alert helps: • facilitate appropriate care • prompt professionals to offer advance care planning • remind hospital staff to liaise with the GP to identify a key worker • communicate between primary and secondary care that a patient has supportive and palliative care needs • Further evaluation is needed to answer the questions: Did the alert: • change patient management? • benefit patient care? • impact on preferred place of care and death? • impact on referrals to specialist palliative care?
