3 Nursing Outcomes Measurement 3
4 Outcomes Sensitive to Nursing Practice per Magnet Status Requirements 4 Six nursing sensitive indicators are required: ü Patient falls ü Pressure ulcers * ü Patient satisfaction ü Nursing staff satisfaction ü Skill mix of RN/LVN and unlicensed staff ü Nursing care hours per patient day Two additional quality indicators are required ü LOS* ü UTI * ü Upper GI Bleed* ü Pneumonia* ü Shock* ü Cardiac arrest* ü Sepsis* ü Deep vein thrombosis* ü Failure to rescue * May be obtained through Electronic Data
5 Nursing Measures via Electronic Data Utilize Administrative Coding Data 5 High Volume Diagnoses ICD9 Code Infection, urinary tract NOS 5990 Pneumonia, organism NOS 486 Hemorrhage, gastrointestinal NOS 5789 Arrest, cardiac 4275 Infection NEC postoperative Thrombosis, venous NEC 4538 Symptom, shock, cardiogenic Septicemia NOS 389 Ulcer, decubitus 7070 Other Diagnoses ICD9 Code Other Diagnoses ICD9 Code Infct d/t indwelling urine catheter Septicemia, gram-neg organism NOS 3840 Infct d/t oth genitourinary device Septicemia, Pseudomonas 3843 Infected postoperative seroma Septicemia, staphylococcal aureus 3811 Pneumonia d/t gram-negative NEC Septicemia, staphylococcal NEC 3819 Pneumonia d/t Klebsiella pneumoniae 4820 Septicemia, staphylococcal NOS 3810 Pneumonia d/t Pseudomonas 4821 Septicemia, streptococcal 380 Pneumonia d/t Staphylococcus aureus Shock, postoperative 9980 Pneumonia, bacterial NOS 4829 Symptom, shock NOS Septicemia NEC 388 Symptom, shock w/o trauma NEC Septicemia, E. coli 3842 Thrombosis, venous NOS 4539 Septicemia, gram-neg organism NEC 3849
6 Risk Adjustment Models 6
7 Risk Adjustment Questions to Ask & Example Models 7 What data is utilized? What are variables identified for risk adjustment? Is data risk-adjusted at the patient level? APR-DRGs Patient 1 Patient 2 Patient 3 CareScience Continuous Risk Adjustment Patient 1 Patient 2 Patient 3
8 CareScience Patient Risk Assessment 8 Variables Clinical Principal Diagnosis Severity Weighted Comorbidities Procedures Urgency of Admission Neonatal birth weight Presence of Cancer Demographic Age Gender Income Referral and Selection Admission source (e.g. Transfer in) Payor Class Travel Distance Disease Specific Outcomes Mortality Morbidity Complications LOS Cost Charges
9 Regression Model Concept 9 Complication = b 0 + b 1 age + b 2 sex + b 3 distance + b 4 proc +... Comp * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * b 1 = From client base sample age
10 Risk Adjustment (beta values) Process Beta values created based on Principal Diagnosis from the Calibrated CareScience Customer Data Base 2. Beta values are then derived for each of the six outcomes for each of the 136 disease strata 3. Each outcome (mortality, morbidity, complications, LOS, cost, charges) has unique beta values based on the impact of the independent risk factors (age, distance traveled, comorbidities etc.) 4. The beta values remain time stable and are the same for all facilities using CareScience
11 CareScience Complications 11 P[Comorbidity] = 0.80 Pneumonia CHF P[Complication] = 0.20 Principal Diagnosis Secondary Diagnoses Complication Incidence Complications are based on a probabilistic model which calculates the probability of a secondary diagnosis being a complication or a comorbid condition Principal diagnoses/secondary diagnoses pairings undergo analysis by physician panels Physician panel results are basis of the probabilistic model
12 Probability Model: Distribution of Secondary Diagnoses by Complication vs. Comorbid Condition 12 Of the 116 patients coded with A. Fib as a secondary diagnosis, CareScience probabilities predict that 64 (55%) were admitted with it as a comorbid condition, and that 52 (45%) developed it as a complication after admission. # of Cases Pneumonia Patients n=602 Comorbidity Complication 37 4 Acute Resp Failure (n=41) UTI (n=80) Atrial Fib (n=116) Volume depletion (dehydration) (n=151) CHF (n=182)

40 Suggested Areas for Improvement & Tracking Improvements over Time 40
41 Summary of Pneumonia Findings with Suggested Areas for Improvement 41 Only 30% of patients admitted via Physician referral, but they accounted for >40% of all mortality. ü Evaluate Physician Referral methods. What is criteria to send patients to the ED? ü Consider evaluation by Physician Service &/or pt. volume 46% of patients transferred to higher level of care or return to ICU within 0-1 days ü Evaluate both ICU admission and discharge criteria Pneumonia rates higher on 3West (Neurology), 4West (Oncology), Pediatrics (2W), and CCU2 ü Consider targeted education on these units ü Consider ID involvement to evaluate air quality/filtration Resource Utilization requires further investigation ü Duration Oxygenation & Pulse Ox utilization/documentation ü Duration Ventilation ü Single View CXR utilization (stat?) Why so many? ü Blood Transfusion practices
42 Suggested Metrics for Pneumonia Critical Few Pneumonia Rates by Unit 2. Admit Source Rates & Outcomes (especially mortality) ü Physician Referral and ED Admits 3. Rates & Timing of ICU Transfers 4. Resource Utilization align with Core Measures where possible ü Blood Cultures ü Antibiotic Timing ü Oxygen duration ü CXR Utilization ü Pulse Oximetry Use 5. Potential Additional Analysis ü Consider investigating impact of COPD as a comorbid condition on outcomes - Do these patients have worse outcomes? What is their rate of Acute Respiratory Failure? ü Consider investigating the impact of age on outcomes - Do older patients have worse outcomes?
43 Administrative Data Pros & Cons 43 Types of Administrative Data ü ICD9 Codes Diagnosis & Procedure Codes ü CPT-4 Codes Procedure Codes ü DRGs Inpatient billing groups ü CDM (Charge Description Master) Pros ü Easily Accessible ü Consistent across facilities ü Timeliness Cons ü Limitations to how much can be documented (eg 7 procedures, 10 diagnoses) ü Developed for billing purposes, not clinical analyses (eg DRGs with and without Cc) ü Timeliness
