1 NoCVA SSI/VTE Safe Surgery Collaborative Orientation Webinar #3 Measures and Data Collection July 19, 2012 Presented by: Jan Mangun, MT(ASCP), MSA, CPHRM Executive Director, Quality and Patient Safety Virginia Hospital and Healthcare Association

2 NoCVA This activity is part of the North Carolina Virginia Hospital Engagement Network(NoCVA) NoCVA is led by the NC Quality Center in partnership with the VA Hospital and Health Association NoCVA exists to support the goals of the CMS national effort - The Partnership for Patients

3 Partnership for Patients Goals By the end of 2013, preventable hospital acquired conditions would be reduced by 40%, compared to 2010 By the end of 2013, 30-day hospital readmissions would be reduced by 20%, compared to 2010 The NoCVA Safe Surgery Collaborative is designed to impact the SSI and VTE goals

6 Polling Question #1 Where are you in completing these Collaborative activities? 1. 1, 2, 3 and , 2 and and 2 only 4. None 1. Project Team in QDS 2. OR Roster to NCQC 3. Safety Culture Survey underway 4. Checklist modification process begun

7 Objectives Name the process and outcome measures for the SSI/VTE Safe Surgery Collaborative Understand the required vs. optional measures Understand the cultural and teamwork measures for this Collaborative

8 Measurement Process Measures (to be pulled from CMS warehouse) SSI VTE Outcome Measures All or none bundle of SCIP INF Measures for surgical site infection prevention as defined by CMS by surgery type Percentage of surgical patients receiving VTE prophylaxis as defined by CMS (SCIP VTE 2) SSI VTE Standardized Infection Ratio for selected surgical procedure (as entered into NHSN) or No. of SSI / total No. Surgeries (if entered into QDS for orthopedic procedures) % of Patients with VTE undergoing selected surgical procedure(s) 8

9 Measurement Culture Process Measures: o Teamwork Observation Tool o o Checklist Observation Tool: Surgical Safety Culture Survey: pre- and postaction period 9

10 Why these surgeries? Why HYST/COLO? National focus via NHSN reporting Make it easy: no additional data burden Why HPRO/KPRO? Chance to show impact: surgical volume Inclusivity: performed in majority of the hospitals in the state Passionate leadership 10

11 ABDOMINAL HYSTERECTOMY & COLON PROCEDURES Overview Measure definition Due dates NHSN submission only Understanding feedback: standardized infection ratios

12 HYST/COLO overview SSI rates for BOTH inpatient abdominal hysterectomy & colon surgeries SSI are required o This aligns with CMS requirement o SSIs for HYST/COLO will be tracked every quarter CMS requires NHSN submission effective January 2012 o NoCVA HEN also requires NHSN submission

13 HYST/COLO: Measure definition Definition of SSI and HYST/COLO procedures can be found in NHSN documentation: agree=yes&next=accept Numerator: Deep incisional primary and organ/space SSIs that were identified during admission (A) or readmission to your facility (R), as defined in the most recent CDC NHSN Manual. Denominator: patients who have undergone HYST & patients who have undergone COLO Note: exclusion criteria for SSI 1. Do not submit superficial SSI 2. Do not submit outpatient SSI 3. Do not submit secondary SSI

14 What are COLO and HYST? Source: NHSN manual 9pscSSIcurrent.pdf

15 HYST/COLO: How? SSI Rates will be pulled from NHSN o Action item: Give group rights to NCQC Some of you have already done this. Will send at end of this webinar with instructions for how to assign group rights Requires NO ADDITIONAL data collection or submission by hospital

16 HYST/COLO: When? Baseline: January-June 2012 discharges Quarterly thereafter through December 2013

17 Risk-adjustment What is risk-adjustment? Risk-adjustment partially corrects for the fact that patients and hospitals differ o For instance, very long procedures are more likely to result in SSIs Risk adjustment allows hospitals/units to more meaningfully compare their rates against each other

18 Risk-adjustment For HYST/COLO, NHSN automatically provides sophisticated risk adjustment No extra work on your end, so this is just an overview to provide understanding NHSN determines an expected number of SSIs given your patient population and volume o They use a complicated statistical model which takes into account many factors o For instance, for COLO procedures, they take into account age, anesthesia, ASA, duration, endoscope usage, medical school affiliation, bed size, and wound class How do they choose these factors? These factors have been found to be most influential that NHSN collects, after analyzing over 800,000 procedures.

19 Risk-adjustment: SIRs Risk adjustment will be used to build a standardized infection ratio (SIR) SIR= observed infections expected infections Example: 2 observed SSIs during COLO 4 expected SSIs during COLO SIR= = 0.5

21 Polling Question #2 At this time, is the measurement plan for hysterectomy & colon surgery clear? Yes Mostly, but I have a few questions Still very unclear

22 Total Hip & Total Knee Procedures (Optional) Overview Definitions When to submit How to submit Risk-stratification option

23 Polling Question #3 Does your facility plan to submit data for hip, knee, or both procedures? 1. Hip 2. Knee 3. Both 4. Not sure, possibly 5. Doesn't apply to me

24 Hip/Knee: Overview SSI rate for HPRO and/or KPRO o Your choice: Hip, Knee, or both o Your choice: risk-stratify or do not risk-stratify o Pre/Post Analysis o Does the SSI rate decrease during the collaborative? Compare: o Six-month rate before the collaborative starts o Six-month rate after collaborative ends

25 Hip/Knee SSI definition SSI rates will be collected by hospital o Numerator: # of deep incisional & primary organ/space SSIs during admission or readmission during total hip (HPRO) and/or knee (KPRO) replacement surgery o Denominator: # of patients having procedure HPRO and/or KPRO Definition of SSI and HPRO/KPRO procedures can be found in NHSN documentation: agree=yes&next=accept Note: exclusion criteria for SSI 1. Do not submit superficial SSI 2. Do not submit outpatient SSI 3. Do not submit secondary SSI

26 Hip/Knee SSI details Source: NHSN manual 9pscSSIcurrent.pdf

27 Hip/Knee Due Dates Only two due dates 1. Six-month baseline (Sept 2011-March 2012) due August 3, 2012 via QDS 2. Six-month follow-up (July 2013-December 2013) due March 31, 2014via QDS One numerator and denominator per month o Possibly split by risk level (risk-stratification option)-- Optional

28 Submitting hip and/or knee data: QDS option Most hospitals will enter into QDS By default, only your data person & team leader have QDS access. You can request an additional person if needed. the project manager (Dean) and he will contact our webmaster.

29 Risk-adjustment for hip & knee Will have option to risk adjust hip and knee SSI data in QDS The method uses risk-stratification via the old NHSN risk index. Each patient is assigned a value between 0-3 based on three things: o ASA score (3, 4, or 5) o Wound classification (contaminated or dirty) o Procedure duration (>75 th percentile, i.e. 120 minutes) o Your IP will need to do this scoring for you and may already do this, but is not current NHSN methodology. o If you are interested in risk-stratification and want additional training, contact me via .

30 Live in QDS What I will do: Collaborative resources webpage Log in to QDS What if you have forgotten your password? Landing page is less busy for teams Show data tab o Hip procedures ² Non-stratified ² Stratified Data verification

31 Your choice No risk adjustment Risk adjustment

32 NHSN entry option Some facilities are entering HPRO and KPRO SSIs into NHSN already. Ask your IP. o That s great! o If you use NHSN, you do NOT have to enter into QDS as well o If you use NHSN, you DO have to give group rights to the Quality Center for this data ² Note: EVERYONE will need to give group rights for HYST/ COLO, so this information should be useful to all ² An will be sent after this webinar with instructions on giving group rights.

33 Polling Question #4 At this time, is the measurement plan for hip and knee clear? 1. Yes 2. Mostly, but I have a few questions 3. Still very unclear

34 HPRO/KPRO v. HYST/COLO HPRO and/or KPRO Report to QDS or NHSN Numerator/Denominator only You have a choice: hip, knee, or both (NCQC is flexible) Only two deadlines (May 30, 2012 & 2013) Risk adjustment is up to you, but requires some extra work. Risk adjustment is via basic stratification. HYST & COLO Report to NHSN, giving group rights to NCQC Follow NHSN reporting guidelines Both HYST & COLO required Quarterly deadlines (NHSN requires monthly) Risk-adjustment happens automatically with no extra effort Risk adjustment uses a very complex statistical model

35 Venous Thrombosis Embolism Outcome Measures Quick overview VTE

36 VTE data collection Good news! NO additional data entry on your end for VTE o We recognized that SSI is already complex/burdensome o VTE rates are so low at many hospitals that we were not confident we can get meaningful data We will ask you to consider doing a defect analysis on VTE o VTE is a QI priority, just very hard to to track clinical data We will track VTE rates using VA state patient data base data. Does factor in POA Feedback will be provided to the collaborative.

37 VTE PSI #12 AHRQ PSI #12: Postoperative Pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis rate o Numerator: DVT or PE in any secondary diagnosis field o Denominator: Surgical discharges, 18+ yrs of age o Population exclusions: ² principle diagnosis of DVT/PE or secondary diagnosis present on admission (POA) ² procedures for interruption of vena cava ² MDC 14 (pregnancy/childbirth/puerperium)

38 Other measures Culture Survey Checklist Observation Tool Team Observation Tool

39 Surgical Safety Culture Survey Why this survey? It asks specifically about culture in the OR Developed by Harvard Safe Surgery

40 Surgical Safety Culture Survey Surgical Safety Culture Survey o Each hospital will take it twice o Once at start of the collaborative o Once at the end of collaborative Submit OR Roster to NCQC (for denominator only) jhayes@ncha.org Complete by July 31 st

41 How will it be used? Survey questions look at perceptions of OR teamwork and culture Questions address 5 dimensions of culture o Speaking up o Sharing information o Feeling respected o Working well together o OR Leadership Will share de-identified, aggregated data back to each of you o Can be used to identify strengths/weaknesses, build buy-in among personnel, and initiate conversations o Information is only as good as your response rate get us those OR rosters! And encourage participation! 41

42 Sample graph from survey report 42

43 Observation Tools Observe 5 surgeries each quarter (at least 1 hr) o Use 2 tools: 1. checklist observation 2. teamwork observation Extensive training at June 11 on-site Learning Session o Materials available on DVD and on NoCVA HEN website.

46 Team Assessment Tool This is a 3 rd tool that is designed to provide feedback to the Collaborative on how things are going with your Project Implementation team It is very brief Quarterly Submission Available in QDS

47 Team Assessment Tool No Yes Comments 1. Our project team has met monthly this quarter 2. 75% or more of our project team has attended each team meeting this quarter. 3. Our surgeon and anesthesia champions have attended at least half our team meetings this quarter 4. Our project team has a patient, family member, or patient advisor who participated in at least half our team meetings this quarter. 5. Our surgeon champion uses the checklist consistently and has spoken 1:1 with other surgeons this quarter, encouraging participation in the project. 6. We have fully implemented the checklist in all hip and knee replacement surgeries 7. We have fully implemented the checklist in all colon and abdominal hysterectomy surgeries 8. We have fully implemented the checklist in these additional surgical specialties. 9. Our team has accessed the NoCVA Safe Surgery toolkit this quarter. The section we reviewed and used was 10. Members of our project team have spoken 1:1 with each staff person and physician who have begun using the checklist, prior to their using the checklist. 11. We are using our process for capturing the information from the OR debriefing section of the checklist, and we have a standardized way of addressing issues identified there 12. Our executive sponsor has completed safety rounds in the OR this quarter. How often? 13. Information from safety rounds is shared with the project team and with other staff at least quarterly. 14. The project team reviewed SSI, VTE, near misses of adverse events, and teamwork observation data at least monthly this quarter. 15. We have conducted a defect analysis on a SSI, VTE, adverse event or near miss this quarter. 16. There has been confusion this quarter on how to proceed with collaborative / project activities with regards to the cultural component to improve safety (safety rounds, teamwork, reporting near misses, etc.) 17. We lack sufficient time and resources to complete this project.
