Multidisciplinary Process Improvement Building Relationships
Mission: Lifeline - Relationships Improved Outcomes Presented by: Lori Hollowell, BSN, RN National Quality Systems Improvement Consultant, Mission: Lifeline and ACTION Registry-GWTG NO Disclosures 7/31/2014 2010, American Heart Association 2
What is Mission :Lifeline? Mission: Lifeline is the American Heart Association s national initiative to advance the systems of care for patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) and those resuscitated after experiencing an Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. The overarching goal of the initiative is to reduce mortality and morbidity for STEMI and Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest patients and to improve their overall quality of care 7/31/2014 2010, American Heart Association 3
How Have We Done These Things? And How Can The Systems Continue to Improve? = IMPLEMENTATION REGIONALIZATION OPTIMIZATION
We Know: Where Delays Occur THE PATIENT REFERRAL CENTER TRANSPORT RECEIVING CENTER Unfamiliar with signs and symptoms of a heart attack Denial Slow to activate 911 EMS System Arrives by POV (Personal Owned Vehicle) Identification of STEMI patient Triage Protocols Access to 12 Lead ECG Machines Diagnostic Dilemma Unavailability Weather Delay in arrival to Referral Center Pumps and Drips Patient Records from Referral Center Transport Distance Acceptance Delay STEMI Alert call Delay Cath Lab Team Delay Patient Condition Arrest/Shock Transport Notification Transfer Acceptance Patient Condition Arrest/Shock 7/31/2014 2012, American Heart Association 5
We Know: Why Delays Occur NON-MODIFIABLE MODIFIABLE WITH DIFFICULTY MODIFIABLE Distance to STEMI Receiving Center Geography Patient/Public Awareness Corporate Loyalty Market Share Preferred Provider Transport Agreements PCI Cardiology On-Call Scheduling Non-Invasive Cardiologists on call Low Clinical Staffing Structure Budgetary Issues (Access to Equipment) Lack of Triage Protocols No Pre-Planned Reperfusion Strategy Lack of Printed Transfer Plan Lack of Back Up Transfer Plan Fear of Lytic Administration NTG and Heparin drips are started Needed Education (EMS and Hospital) All employees are not aware of STEMI protocols Lack of Data Collection Communication/Relationships 7/31/2014 2012, American Heart Association 6
Ideals and Mission: Lifeline Criteria to Support Timely Reperfusion Strong Multidisciplinary Teams Relationship Building between EMS and ED EMS Point of Entry/ Transport Destination Protocols based on data Data Collection and Sharing between Receiving Center and EMS Communication and Understanding of ACC/AHA Guidelines Early 12 Lead ECG Acquisition Early STEMI Receiving Center notification of 12 Lead ECG findings Early Activation of Cath Lab Team Consider lytic administration at Referral Centers 7
