2 MEASURE NAME: THPSO Measure #1: Perioperative Aspiration Pneumonia rate NQF NUMBER: Not applicable DESCRIPTION: Percentage of patients, independent of age, who receive a general anesthetic, and have an aspiration pneumonia identified within 48 hours. Patients who undergo emergent general anesthesia are excluded from this measure. MEASURE TYPE: Outcome Inverse Measure NATIONAL QUALITY DOMAIN: Patient Safety RISK ADJUSTMENT: Risk adjustment is not applicable for this measure. INSTRUCTIONS: Measure Reporting via QCDR Registry: This measure is to be reported once per patient per general anesthetic performed during the reporting year. It is anticipated that clinicians who provide general anesthesia will submit this measure. CPT codes, SNOMED-CT codes, other normalized taxonomies, patient demographics, and other discrete data from data collection forms and/or systems may be used to identify patients who are included in the measure s denominator and numerator. The listed denominator and numerator options (THPSO codes) are used to report denominator and numerator eligible instances for the measure to the QCDR. Submitting providers and/or data sources must provide a crosswalk to, and receive approval from, the QCDR demonstrating how they have mapped internal normalized data to the QCDR numerator and denominator criteria. Codes clearly identifying all denominator eligible cases, as well as Performance Met, Denominator Exclusions, Denominator Exceptions, and Performance Not Met must be submitted to the registry. The below listed specific codes may be submitted to the registry. Alternatives may be used with prior approval, as long as the submitting provider provides the registry with data that clearly delineates the below categories. DENOMINAT: Patients, independent of age, who undergo general anesthesia. NUMERAT: Denominator Criteria (Eligible Cases): Patient encounter(s) during reporting period where patients underwent a general anesthesia. THPSO1: DN Page 2
3 Patients with evidence of aspiration or aspiration pneumonia within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia. This may be from clinical observation, physical findings, or a new infiltrate identified on CXR by an anesthesia provider or radiologist within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia, which is consistent with aspiration pneumonia. Numerator Criteria: Performance Met: Evidence of aspiration or aspiration pneumonia within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia. THPSO1-PM Denominator Exclusions: Emergent modifier to ASA classification or other indication of an emergency. THPSO1-DE Denominator Exceptions: Performance Not Met: No evidence of aspiration or aspiration pneumonia within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia. THPSO1- PNM RATIONALE: Pulmonary aspiration is a serious cause of anesthesia-related morbidity and mortality, and is a leading cause of death from pulmonary complications. Aspiration occurs in approximately three per 10,000 anesthetic procedures with higher incidences in special patient populations and emergency situations. 1 The goal of perioperative pulmonary management is to identify patients at high risk of significant postoperative pulmonary complications, and to provide appropriate interventions to minimize that risk. In most cases, even in high-risk patients, the procedure can be performed safely. Occasionally postponement, procedural modification, or cancellation is warranted. 1 Abdulla S.

THPSO2- PM Denominator Exclusions: Denominator Exceptions: Performance Not Met: No clinical evidence of a post-dural puncture headache within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia. THPSO2- PNM RATIONALE: Post-dural puncture headache is a known and common complication following dural puncture. Research has demonstrated that procedural methods, including the use of small-gauge needles, and needles of the pencil-point design, can lower the risk of this complication. Post-dural puncture headaches are diagnosed by history and physical exam. A strong postural component of the headache, along with a recent dural puncture, is an indicator of a post-dural puncture headache. 2 2 Ghaleb A, Khorasani A, Mangar D. Post-dural puncture headache.

Various surgical and post-surgical etiological factors may exist including mechanical stretching of the nerve, disruption of blood supply, prolonged tourniquet use, excessive blood loss, hypotension and direct compression of nerve sometimes caused by post-op wound dressings. THPSO3-DX Performance Not Met: No clinical evidence of a new peripheral nerve injury within 48 hours of completion of anesthesia. THPSO3- PNM RATIONALE: Peripheral nerve injuries that occur peri-operatively are largely preventable. These injuries commonly result from incorrect patient positioning during surgery. Patient specific risks include diabetics, being extremely thin or obese, tobacco use, or prolonged surgery. Appropriate preoperative assessment to identify at-risk patients, patient positioning, and monitoring can help prevent peripheral nerve injuries. 3 3 Bouyer-Ferullo, S.

Numerator Criteria: Performance Met: Respiratory arrest requiring intervention in the PACU. THPSO12-PM Denominator Exclusions: Denominator Exceptions: Performance Not Met: No respiratory arrest requiring intervention in the PACU. THPSO12-PNM RATIONALE: Respiratory arrests in the PACU result from a myriad of causes, including post-operative changes in the respiratory system coupled with underlying patient conditions and co-morbities. Many respiratory arrests may be avoidable through early recognition and intervention by anesthesia providers. A high rate of respiratory arrest in the PACU may be due to inadequate monitoring of the extubated patient, or the use of non-standardized criteria for post-operative extubation Rock P. and Rich PB. Post-operative pulmonary complications. Curr Opin Anaesthesiol Apr;16(2): Page 25
26 MEASURE NAME: THPSO Measure #13: Dental Injury Rate following airway management NQF NUMBER: Not applicable DESCRIPTION: Percentage of patients, independent of age, who develop dental injury from airway manipulation by the anesthesia provider in non-emergent operative cases. MEASURE TYPE: Outcome Inverse Measure NATIONAL QUALITY DOMAIN: Patient Safety RISK ADJUSTMENT: Risk adjustment is not applicable for this measure. INSTRUCTIONS: Measure Reporting via QCDR Registry: This measure is to be reported once per patient per anesthesia performed during the reporting year. It is anticipated that clinicians who perform anesthesia will submit this measure. Each case of general anesthetic is in the denominator. The listed numerator options are used to report the numerator for the measure. CPT codes, SNOMED-CT codes, other normalized taxonomies, patient demographics, and other discrete data from data collection forms and/or systems may be used to identify patients who are included in the measure s denominator and numerator. The listed denominator and numerator options (THPSO codes) are used to report denominator and numerator eligible instances for the measure to the QCDR. Submitting providers and/or data sources must provide a crosswalk to, and receive approval from, the QCDR demonstrating how they have mapped internal normalized data to the QCDR numerator and denominator criteria. Codes clearly identifying all denominator eligible cases, as well as Performance Met, Denominator Exclusions, Denominator Exceptions, and Performance Not Met must be submitted to the registry. The below listed specific codes may be submitted to the registry. Alternatives may be used with prior approval, as long as the submitting provider provides the registry with data that clearly delineates the below categories. DENOMINAT: Patients, independent of age, who undergo general anesthesia. This includes all general anesthetic cases using endo-tracheal intubation, laryngeal mask airways, and other intra-oral airway tools Page 26
27 Denominator Criteria (Eligible Cases): Each case of general anesthesia occurring during reporting period. THPSO13-DN NUMERAT: A change in the patient's preoperative dental status resulting from airway manipulation or instrumentation from endotracheal intubation, as well as the use of intra-oral airway devices such as laryngeal mask airways. Numerator Criteria: Performance Met: Change in preoperative dental status resulting from airway manipulation or instrumentation for endotracheal intubation or use of intra-oral airway devices. THPSO13-PM Denominator Exclusions: General anesthetics solely using mask airway devices, and emergent cases.. THPSO13-DE Denominator Exceptions: A change in preoperative dental status, but not resulting from anesthesia airway manipulation (i.e. resulting from operative procedure) THPSO13-DX Performance Not Met: No change in preoperative dental status. THPSO13- PNM RATIONALE: Dental injuries result in common claims against anesthesiologists. This is a reflection of the fact that dental injuries are common complications of oro-tracheal intubation. Both patient and anesthesiology provider factors can be causative, including poor dentition, aggressive laryngoscopy, insufficient anesthesia, emergent procedures, inadequate paralysis, and inexperience Gaudio RM1, Feltracco P, Barbieri S, Tiano L, Alberti M, Delantone M, Ori C, Avato FM.Dent Traumatol. Traumatic dental injuries during anaesthesia: part I: clinical evaluation Dec;26(6): Page 27
28 MEASURE NAME: THPSO Measure #14: Patient Experience: Post-anesthesia follow-up NQF NUMBER: Not applicable DESCRIPTION: Percentage of patients, age 18 years and above, who undergo a standardized patient experience survey. MEASURE TYPE: Process NATIONAL QUALITY DOMAIN: Person and Caregiver-Centered Experience and Outcomes RISK ADJUSTMENT: Risk adjustment is not applicable for this measure. INSTRUCTIONS: Measure Reporting via QCDR Registry: This measure is to be reported once per patient per daily anesthesia episode performed during the reporting year. It is anticipated that clinicians who perform anesthesia will submit this measure. Each daily anesthesia episode for a patient who is 18 years of age or older is in the denominator. For a patient who has two or more anesthesia cases during a day (i.e. a surgery and anesthesia followed be recovery, and then a return to the operating room with another anesthesia in the same day will be considered a single daily anesthesia episode). The listed numerator options are used to report the numerator for the measure. CPT codes, SNOMED-CT codes, other normalized taxonomies, patient demographics, and other discrete data from data collection forms and/or systems may be used to identify patients who are included in the measure s denominator and numerator. The listed denominator and numerator options (THPSO codes) are used to report denominator and numerator eligible instances for the measure to the QCDR. Submitting providers and/or data sources must provide a crosswalk to, and receive approval from, the QCDR demonstrating how they have mapped internal normalized data to the QCDR numerator and denominator criteria. Codes clearly identifying all denominator eligible cases, as well as Performance Met, Denominator Exclusions, Denominator Exceptions, and Performance Not Met must be submitted to the registry. The below listed specific codes may be submitted to the registry. Alternatives may be used with prior approval, as long as the submitting provider provides the registry with data that clearly delineates the below categories. DENOMINAT: Once per patient per daily anesthesia episode for patients, age 18 years and above, who undergo anesthetic cases in the operating room Page 28
29 Denominator Criteria (Eligible Cases): THPSO14-DN Patient encounter(s) for an anesthetic procedure in the operating room. AND Age: 18 years or above NUMERAT: Patients who undergo standardized survey regarding their patient experience. Survey questions must be specific to the anesthesia care experience and must include 1) presence of significant nausea/vomiting since anesthetic, 2) ability to tolerate their diet, 3) adequate post-operative discomfort control, 4) general satisfaction with the anesthesia experience, 5) pain at locations other than the surgical site, 6) presence of a significant sore throat, cough or hoarseness, and 7) the adequacy of postoperative discharge instructions. Numerator Criteria: Performance Met: Completion of a standardized post-anesthetic survey. THPSO14-PM Denominator Exclusions: Documentation of patient reason(s) or medical reason(s) for not completing survey (i.e. patients who are non-verbal, who are unable to be surveyed due to a medical or psychiatric reason, who are unable to be surveyed due to a language barrier, or who decline to be surveyed) THPSO14-DE Denominator Exceptions: Performance Not Met: Failure to complete a standardized post-anesthetic survey, reason not given. THPSO14-PNM RATIONALE: Current survey methodology is frequently lacking in specificity with respect to the anesthesia experience. The development of data collection allowing for the analysis of patients perspectives of anesthesia care with the provisions of objective and meaningful comparisons that will allow for expectations by patients is necessary in order to improve patient outcomes Page 29
30 MEASURE NAME: NHQI Measure #24: Patient Experience: Did the Patient Receive Adequate Instructions NQF NUMBER: Not applicable DESCRIPTION: Percentage of patients age 18 years and above, who undergo a post-anesthesia evaluation, who report receiving adequate post-anesthesia instructions. MEASURE TYPE: Outcome NATIONAL QUALITY DOMAIN: Communication and Care Coordination RISK ADJUSTMENT: Risk adjustment is not applicable for this measure. INSTRUCTIONS: Measure Reporting via QCDR Registry: This measure is to be reported once per patient per post-anesthesia survey evaluation performed during the reporting year. It is anticipated that clinicians who perform anesthesia will submit this measure. Each post-anesthesia survey evaluation for a patient who is 18 years of age or older is in the denominator. The listed numerator options are used to report the numerator for the measure. CPT codes, SNOMED-CT codes, other normalized taxonomies, patient demographics, and other discrete data from data collection forms and/or systems may be used to identify patients who are included in the measure s denominator and numerator. The listed denominator and numerator options (NHQI codes) are used to report denominator and numerator eligible instances for the measure to the QCDR. Submitting providers and/or data sources must provide a crosswalk to, and receive approval from, the QCDR demonstrating how they have mapped internal normalized data to the QCDR numerator and denominator criteria. Codes clearly identifying all denominator eligible cases, as well as Performance Met, Denominator Exclusions, Denominator Exceptions, and Performance Not Met must be submitted to the registry. The below listed specific codes may be submitted to the registry. Alternatives may be used with prior approval, as long as the submitting provider provides the registry with data that clearly delineates the below categories. DENOMINAT: Once per patient for post-anesthesia evaluation for patients, age 18 years and above, who undergo anesthetic cases in the operating room. Denominator Criteria (Eligible Cases): NHQI24-DN Patient post-anesthesia survey evaluations Page 30
31 AND Age: 18 years or above NUMERAT: Per standardized survey regarding the adequacy of the post-anesthesia instructions received by the patient. Numerator Criteria: Performance Met: Patient received adequate post-anesthesia discharge instructions. NHQI24PM Denominator Exclusions: Denominator Exceptions: Performance Not Met: Patient did not receive adequate post-anesthesia discharge instructions. NHQI24-PNM RATIONALE: Patients who are more satisfied with the quality of their post-discharge instructions are thought to be better informed regarding both post-operative expectations, including what activities they should and should not be participating in, as well as their medication and pain control regimen. Patient satisfaction has been correlated with improved surgical care in at least one study 13, and patients perception of their care is part of the triple aim as described by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement Lyu H, Wick EC, Housman M, Freischlag JA, Makary MA. Patient satisfaction as a possible indicator of quality surgical care. JAMA Surg. 2013;148(4): Institute for Healthcare Improvement. The IHI triple aim. Last accessed December 9, Page 31
