Banner Health’s Approach to Care Management & Clinical Reliability

Physician Involvement with Design and Implementation

Designing Reliable CarePrevent Failure (10-1)

―Standardization―Checklists, feedback mechanisms

Identify and Mitigate Failure (10-2)―Eliminate ambiguities, work arounds―Reminders, differentiation, constraints

Redesign (10-3)―Identify the failure mode―Improve processes and structures

“Reliability” - Isn’t 99% accuracy pretty good?

“If we had to live with 99.9% (10-3), we would have: ―2 unsafe plane landings per

day at Chicago O’Hare Airport―16,000 pieces of mail lost

every hour―32,000 bank checks deducted

from the wrong account every hour”

W.E. DemingJAMA Vol 272 (23), 21 Dec. 1994, 1851-57

Clinical Reliability at Banner•Banner’s approach to quality and safety is based on ensuring

reliability* of its clinical systems and processes including:

*The capability of a process, procedure or health service to perform its intended function in the required time under existing conditions. (IHI, 2004)

Defining clinical standards, designing delivery processes, and implementing across the organization

Identifying and addressing opportunities for further improvement

Monitoring and assessingperformance to those

standards and addressing periodic issues

• Honor the contributions of clinician experts• Leverage the “Operating Company Model”• Recruit deep physician talent for leadership• Train clinicians in leading change• Encourage the multi-disciplinary approach• Engage engineering expertise• Deploy technology to simplify care• Consistent methodology to improvement

Evidence Based Practices

Local ProblemHow does Banner Health drive increased bundle compliance to improve outcomes by providing

high reliability care to every patient, every time?

Example: Blood product utilization

2011 National Blood Collection Survey and Report

51,000 transfusion-related adverse events occurred

• Death• Renal injury• Lung injury• Allergic reactions• Iron overload• Immune suppression• Fever

Unnecessary Transfusions

The American Association of Blood Banks recommends

transfusing only when Hgb <7g/dL unless the patient is symptomatic or meets exclusion

criteria

Research indicates that approximately

30% RBC, 25% platelet & 60% FFP

transfusions are unnecessary

Healthcare providers have

historically used the 10/30 rule,

ordering transfusions when Hgb <10g/dL and

Hct <30g/dL

Use of Blood and Blood Products

Reduce Variation in Blood UtilizationIn 2012, Banner Health created a strategic initiative aimed to reduce unnecessary transfusions. These unnecessary transfusions contribute to patient harm and waste. The purpose of this initiative has been to improve patient safety and clinical outcomes while reducing cost. Over the course of several years, processes involved in ordering blood have resulted in fewer transfusions administered.

What is Blood Management?• A subsection of the national patient

safety movement• The appropriate provision and use of all

blood-derived therapeutics and the strategies to avoid unnecessary transfusions1

– Address preoperative anemia and optimize erythropoiesis

– Prevent, minimize or control blood loss– Employ blood conservation methods– Focus on evidence-based use of banked

blood and minimize inappropriate use

Blood Management for Elective Joint ReplacementStrategies for Success

Expected Practice RationaleAutologous donation: Discontinuation • Worsens anemia pre-op

• Increases the risk for transfusion of multiple units (homologous)

• Risk of infection/reaction from transfusion of units near-expiration date

“Restrictive” transfusion strategy • Literature supports better outcomes than for “liberal” transfusion strategy

• Transfusion threshold < 7 gms Hgb**(for hemodynamically stable patients)

• Reduced immunosuppressive effects of Transfusion

Anemia Screening & RX* increase Hgb pre-op

*Epo + Fe for appropriate patients

Elective, scheduled surgeryDramatic reduction in transfusionsBetter outcomes

Addressing Anticipated Barriers

Process Design

Concurrent Monitoring AlertRule Logic• Trigger = Nursing to administer blood product• age >17• hgb >=7 within the last 24 hours; OR No hgb within the last 24 hoursOptional Logic Items• SBP >= 90• Heart Rate <= 100• Hgb ordered but no results Alert Options• Cancel incoming order; OR• Override Reasons• Acute unmeasureable bleeding, ie GIbleed; • Acute >15% blood volume loss; • Hypovolemia with CVP, 4 cm H2O; diaphoretic; EBL > 1000 ml; • HD patient (hgb <9); • Oncology Patient (hgb <9); • CAD (new MI hgb<10 or pre-op hgb<9); • 3rd trimester (hgb < 10)

Transfusion alert: if hemoglobin is on file and it is greater than 7.0 at the time the transfusion is requested and the patient is hemodynamically stable

Triggering the Alert: Hgb >7

Millennium transfusion alert if no hemoglobin is on file at the time the transfusion is requested

Triggering the Alert: No Hgb on File
