1 Can You Hear Me Now? Best Practices for Fully Informed Consent Standard Register Webinar Series July 10, 2015 Tim Kelly, MS, MBA Director of Marketing INFORMED CONSENT History 1914: the modern notion of informed consent as a protection against battery 1 Patient agreed to an exam but not to tumor removal a surgeon who performs an operation without his patient's consent commits an assault for which he is liable in damages. 1957: disclosure of risks and alternatives : disclosure of risks that a reasonable person would want to know 3 1 Schloendorff v Society of New York Hospital. 105 N.E. 92 (N.Y. 1914) 2 Salgo v Leland Stanford Jr. Univ. Bd. Trustees. 154 Cal. App. 2d 560, 317 P.2d 170 (1957) 3 Canterbury v Spence. 464 F.2d 772 (DC Cir. 1972) 2 Page 1of 23
2 INFORMED CONSENT Today Procedures allegedly performed without consent Photography allegedly without consent 3 INFORMED CONSENT Agenda Areas for Improvement Compliance and Standardization Patient Safety Lost or Misplaced Consents Liability Improving Comprehension During Informed Consent Automated Informed Consent Concluding Thoughts 4 Page 2of 23
3 Compliance and Standardization STANDARDIZATION Typical Handwritten Form Abbreviations Legibility Variance Patient to Patient Provider to Provider Organization to Organization Issa MA, et al. The Journal of Urology. 2006;176: Page 3of 23
4 STANDARDIZATION AND COMPLIANCE Non-Compliant Forms 157-hospital study: Necessary elements are present only 26 percent of the time 1 Key elements required by: CMS DNV TJC 1 Bottrell MM, et al. Archives of Surgery. 2000;135: Patient Safety Page 4of 23
5 REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS NEJM: Case Records of the Massachusetts General Hospital 9 Ring DC, Herndon JH, Meyer GS. N Engl J Med 2010;363: /NEJMcpc Accessed 7/8/15. REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS The Case of the Trigger Finger Release A 65 year old woman was evaluated for pain and stiffness in the ring finger of the left hand. Dexamethasone was injected locally. Eight weeks later there was no improvement and informed consent was obtained for a release of trigger finger procedure. 10 Page 5of 23
6 REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS The Case of the Trigger Finger Release One hour before the procedure Dr. Ring, the surgeon, translated the preoperative preparation for the patient because no Spanish speaking interpreter was available. Dr. Ring confirmed the persistent trigger finger of the left ring finger with the patient. Dr. Ring then left to perform an extremely challenging carpaltunnel release procedure on a different patient. That patient was very agitated both before and after the procedure. Dr. Ring told himself that the next operation would be the best carpal tunnel release that I have ever performed. 11 REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS The Case of the Trigger Finger Release Delays by other surgeons caused a change in the operating room and in the operating room staff, including the nurse who had performed the preoperative assessment on the patient scheduled for the trigger finger release procedure. When Dr. Ring arrived at the OR, the patient was already prepped. Dr. Ring spoke briefly with the patient in Spanish that conversation was believed by the OR staff to be a time out. No formal time out took place. 12 Page 6of 23
7 REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS The Case of the Trigger Finger Release Dr. Ring performed an uneventful carpal tunnel release on the patient. 15 minutes later, when dictating the report of the procedure, Dr. Ring realized the error. Dr. Ring immediately apologized to the patient and offered to perform the correct procedure. The staff was reassembled and the trigger finger release procedure was performed without complication. 13 Is Case an anomaly? Page 7of 23
8 REDUCING THE RISK OF ERRORS Wrong Patient/ Wrong Procedure/ Wrong Site Surgery State of Pennsylvania 30 month period A wrong site surgery event will reach a patient once per year in a 300 bed hospital Failure to verify consent forms was a major contributor to errors resulting in the initiation of wrong site surgery 15 Clarke JR, Johnston J, Finley ED.

15 PATIENT COMPREHENSION National Quality Forum (NQF) In 2003, NQF first published Safe Practices for Better Healthcare Endorsed a set of national voluntary consensus standards designed to improve patient safety 29 PATIENT COMPREHENSION National Quality Forum (NQF) NQF Safe Practice 5 Ask each patient or legal surrogate to teach back, or repeat back in his or her own words, key information about the proposed treatments or procedures for which he or she is being asked to provide informed consent. 30 Page 15 of 23
16 PATIENT COMPREHENSION 31 PATIENT COMPREHENSION 32 If the Patient Understood Immediately button is checked, the following is automatically inserted into the progress note: The patient satisfactorily communicated his or her diagnosis. If the Patient Understood with Additional Training button is checked, the following is automatically inserted into the progress note: After further discussion, the patient was able to satisfactorily communicate his or her diagnosis. Page 16 of 23
17 PATIENT COMPREHENSION Methods Setting: 7 VA Medical Centers (Atlanta, Boston, Denver, Houston, Pittsburgh, Portland, Tampa) Surgical Types: Total Hip Arthroplasty Carotid Endarterectomy Laparoscopic Cholecystectomy Radical Prostatectomy 33 PATIENT COMPREHENSION Results Significantly better patient understanding of risks, benefits and alternative treatments The teach back or repeat back process took only 2.6 additional minutes on average Fink AS, Prochazka AV, Henderson WG, et al. Ann Surg 2010;252: Page 17 of 23
18 Electronic, Standardized or Automated Informed Consent ELECTRONIC CONSENT Increased Patient Satisfaction 96 percent of patients preferred the electronic consent system to the traditional approach Issa MM, Setzer E, Charaf C, et al. The Journal of Urology. 2006;176: Page 18 of 23
19 ELECTRONIC CONSENT Provider Satisfaction JHS physicians expressed overwhelming support of the application as well. Michael Butler, MD, CMO Jackson Health System For the Record, October 15, Concluding Thought Consent is Not Always for a Treatment or Procedure Page 19 of 23
