E N D
1. SNAPScottish National Audit Project CE Bucknall
Chair, Bicollegiate Physicians Quality of Care Committee
2. SNAP Health Foundation funded (Ł300,000+)
Community acquired pneumonia
Epilepsy – annual review & first seizure clinic referral
Long term aim – a model for quality improvement for medical topics
3. EPI-SNAP
Aids for GP annual review
Triage system to target poorly controlled patients, and those at risk of side effects
Adaptations to SPICE screens
eLinks to Epilepsy Scotland info leaflets
Standardised referral proforma for first seizure clinic
Driving advice
Professional drivers fast tracked
Reducing inappropriate referrals
4. EPI-SNAP lessons
Working with other groups/agencies important when dealing with chronic disease monitoring
Too early to comment on first seizure clinic project – maybe possible to derive a care bundle of key information needed & monitor this in future
5. SNAP-CAP Care bundle of key items
severity scoring using CURB65
Management guided by severity (IV antibiotics if CURB65=3, home Rx if CURB65 0 or 1 and no clinical concerns
first antibiotic dose within 4 hrs
Oxygen saturations = 92% during first 4 hours
(patient information)
Monthly monitoring & feedback
Changes in practice in response to data
6. 4 sites have already shown some improvement in quality of care Improved
CURB65 scoring
Antibiotics within 4 hrs
Oxygenation
Not improved
Home treatment for mild pneumonia
Information giving to patients/carers
10. Examples of practice changes
Having appropriate antibiotics (& formulations) in A&E, so that first dose can be given before transfer to ward
Writing up first dose as once only
Fast tracking patients for XRay
System for allowing home Rx of mild CAP cases
Telephone follow up of patients discharged
11. Model for future work
Care bundles
Regular monitoring of these with timely feedback
Rapid response to poor results to change the system of care & promote good practice
12. Care bundles
key items, linked to evidence
delivered by a single team over a short period of time
topics can have two bundles eg relating to initial therapy and discharge arrangements
13. Feedback
Person to person – using the post receiving ward round more effectively
Paper based – posters showing monthly results
Electronic – emails to FY, middle grade docs and consultants
15. Does It Work in Our ICU?
16. Why should physicians get involved now?
Fragmentation of care (MMC) has weakened medical teams
Consultants have responsibility but no current means of influencing care, other than post hoc changes on receiving ward rounds & general exhortations
Opportunity - Patient safety being strongly promoted within Scottish NHS, with IHI as world class partner
17. Model for quality improvement
Specialist Societies identify topics and care bundles
IHI model of local groups monitoring results & sharing experience more widely
PSA collaboration for local data monitoring & changing practice
Senior support – medical & managerial
