1 The NCDR and Clinical Practice Guideline Development Gregory J. Dehmer, MD, FACC, FACP, FSCAI Professor of Medicine Texas A&M HSC College of Medicine Director, Cardiology Division Baylor Scott & White Health, Central Texas Guidelines These Days, We Have Many Sources of Information that Provide Structure Around the Practice of Cardiology Where and how does the NCDR fit in? The NCDR and Clinical Practice Guidelines Clinical Studies Adapted from: Antman & Peterson, Circulation 2009:119:

2 Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) Before the 1980 s physicians relied upon experience and intuition to guide patient care First ever guideline was in 1984 J Am Coll Cardiol 1984; 4: Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) ACC/AHA partner with other professional organizations to provides guidelines and other documents Rely on evidencebased care/randomized trials If no evidence available, expert opinion Clinical Practice Guidelines Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) (State of Science) Exhaustive review of the literature and knowledge base Heavy reliance on RCTs, if any Best practices Should do, should not do Class I = you should do this Class III = don t do this no benefit or harm Class II = conflicting data Maybe OK, sometimes (we re not sure, need more research, debatable, etc...) Level of evidence A: multiple populations studied, multiple RCT, meta-analyses B: limited populations, one RCT C very limited populations, expert consensus opinion 2

3 Guidelines Don t Just Happen f Are the Guidelines Perfect? JAMA 2009;301: In the 16 current guidelines: Only 11% of all recommendations were LOE = A 48% LOE C Only 19% of Class I recommendations were LOE = A The Link Between CPGs and the NCDR Science -tells us what we cando; Guidelines tells us what we shoulddo; Then how do we know what we are doing? Are we following the guidelines? Are we improving outcomes for patients? Roe MT, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol :56:254 :56:

4 Clinical Outcomes? We can only manage what we measure The Link Between CPGs and the NCDR Science -tell us what we cando; Guidelines tell us what we shoulddo; Registries -tell us what we aredoing The clinical yardstick of our performance The Link Between CPGs and the NCDR Science -tells us what we can do; Guidelines tells us what we should do; Registries -tells us what we are actually doing Examined: 131,980 STEMI and NSTEMI patients from ACTION-GWTG Registry 1,708,247 patients from the Cath PCI Registry Roe MT, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol :56:254 :56:
