21 sensitivity Receiver Operator Curve AUROC 0.91 ( ) specificity If Amb Score 5, patient is more likely to be discharged within 12 hours! Sensitivity: 96% (90-98) Specificity: 62% (55-68)
22 What if we had: An ambulatory care unit near AMU BUT Separate from AMU?
23 Current practice.. AMU 25 Beds (Admissions) AEC Unit 6 Trolleys (Ambulatory Care)
24 Now we have what we asked, can we make it work? 1. Can we increase AECU through put reduce AMU admissions AND
25 Advanced Paramedic GP A&E Who Decides: If thought to be Ambulatory Bed Managers ADMISSION or AMBULATORY 1. GP 2. A&E doctors 3. Bed Managers How to decide: 1. Clinical features 2. Referrer s assessment 3. Amb score...sometimes!!! For Ambulatory Care For Admission AECU AMU Circa January 2014
26 Ambulatory Emergency Care Unit (AECU), Ground Floor near A&E AMU (Ward 6) First Floor above A&E 6 Trolleys 9am to 5pm Mon - Fri 25 Beds Month New Review Total Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Month Number Sep-13 N/A Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb
27 Where were patients seen? AECU: 20 % Discharged from AMU after PTWR: 30% Total emergency / Urgent referrals (40-50 per day)
28 Is that good enough?
29 Advanced Paramedic If thought to be Ambulatory GP Front Door Triage (NEWS, Amb Score) ADMISSION AMBULATORY or A&E Med SpR / AECU team Who Decides: 1. GP 2. A&E doctors 3. Med SpR 4. Triage Nurse 5. AECU Team How to decide: 1. Clinical features 2. Referrer s assessment 3. Amb score For Ambulatory Care For Admission AECU AMU Circa February 2014
30 So with a) Front Door Triage (including Use of Amb Score) for GP referrals and b) Med SpR taking A&E referrals
31 Changes in new patients numbers SpR taking A&E referrals Amb Score used in front door triage AMU AECU Oct-13 Nov-13 Dec-13 Jan-14 Feb-14 Mar-14 Apr-14 May-14 Jun-14 Jul-14 Aug-14 Sep-14
32 Amb Score prediction for ambulatory care small sample of 98 consecutive GP-referred patients initially for admission but triaged at front door before final decision: Amb score predicts admission (Amb < 5) Amb score predicts ambulatory care (Amb 5) Admitted to AMU Seen in AECU & discharged 17 (36%) 2 (4%) (64%) 49 (96%) 79 Total P<0.001 Total
33 1. Can we increase AECU through put reduce AMU admissions AND Total number admitted to AMU reduced 96% of those that Amb Score predicted ambulatory went to AECU (and discharged) 40 % of GP referrals for admission diverted to AECU (September / October 2014 Data)
34 What other interventions did occur SpR taking A&E referrals Amb Score used in front door triage AMU AECU ACP cover intake 9-5 ACP cover intake 9-5 & morning PTWR 0 Oct-13 Nov-13 Dec-13 Jan-14 Feb-14 Mar-14 Apr-14 May-14 Jun-14 Jul-14 Aug-14 Sep-14
35 What else? If patients were ear-marked for admission (no prior Amb Score calculated at triage), can the Amb Score calculated just before PTWR be used to aid PTWR discharge?
36 PTWR discharge rates with and without Amb Score (after admission) June / July PTWR No Amb Score 113 Amb Score (calculated just prior to ACP PTWR) % discharge (Dr X 35%) 36% discharge (Dr X 42%)
37 Why not see more patients in AECU? - time of arrivals (beyond our control) 6 GP referrals arriving by Ambulance GP referrals arriving by own transport
38 Things that worked for us Co-location BUT separate Ambulatory (AECU) versus Admissions (AMU) 2 different teams (Acute Medicine vs on -call team) Front door triage for GP referrals SpRs taking A&E referrals?acps cover intake 9-5?ACP doing morning PTWR on night admissions
39 Future Plans: Enhance Front Door Triage (Staff, Space, Time)? Extend hours of business Encourage A&E / Med SpR / GPs to think of Ambulatory Care Enhance direct Paramedic referral to AECU?Extend AECU opening hours
40 GP and A&E reminder Cards
41 Ambulatory Care..what we learnt on how to set it up Location, location, location Ideally close to A&E & AMU (?separate?integrated) Waiting facilities Consulting rooms Trolleys People Enthusiastic capable clinicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, PA, OT & Physio, Discharge liaison input Clerical staff Senior management Diagnostic support Pathology Radiology ETT / ECHO / PFT Pharmacy Clinical guidelines / pathways / patient flow processes Who to take the calls? Who / How to decide if Ambulatory Referral pathways to specialists Clinical Outcomes & Process Measures with robust IT support Activity Re-admission rates (including UNEXPECTED admission from AECU) Patient satisfaction Cost savings
