2 Introduction Every year approximately 200,000 people undergo elective hip and knee replacement surgery in the United Kingdom. Hip Replacement Hip replacement is currently the most common orthopaedic operation, used to treat joint failure caused by osteoarthritis. Other indications include rheumatoid arthritis, avascular necrosis, traumatic arthritis and arthritis associated with other clinical conditions. The aims of the procedure are pain relief and improvement in hip function. Knee Replacement Knee replacement, also referred to as knee arthroplasty is a surgical procedure to replace the weight bearing surfaces of the knee joint to relieve pain and disability. Rationale for this operation includes osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis and psoriatic arthritis. Risks and complications of hip and knee replacement are similar to those of other joint replacements. The most serious complication is infection of the joint which occurs in less than 1% of patients. Other complications include deep vein thrombosis, nerve injuries, persistent pain and stiffness. The Advancing Quality measures aim to ensure the patient receives consistent reliable care throughout their journey. Therefore improving the patient's experience, reducing hospital length of stay and the potential of readmission. Page 2
3 Measures In Clinical Focus Area Measure Type Measure ID Clinical Process Measure Data Measure - Mandatory HK-01 HK-02 HK-03 HK-04 HK-05 HK-06 HK-07 Measure Name Prophylactic antibiotic within 1 hour prior to surgical incision Temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision Tranexamic acid administered during surgery Received appropriate VTE prophylaxis within 12 hours of surgery end time Patient walking within 24 hours of surgery end time Regular prescription of analgesia and laxative on day of surgery Pre-op patient education Page 3
4 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-01 Prophylactic antibiotic within 1 hour prior to surgical incision Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Hip and knee replacement patients should be administered prophylactic antibiotics within 1 hour prior to surgical incision. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: The use of prophylaxis with antibiotics is to establish bactericidal tissue and serum levels at the time of skin incision. Antibiotic therapy within 1 hour of surgical incision has been proven to reduce the risk of infection. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who received prophylactic antibiotics within one hour prior to surgical incision. Denominator Statement: Number of patients eligible to received prophylactic antibiotics within one hour prior to surgical incision. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who received prophylactic antibiotics within one hour prior to surgical incision. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Notes: Patients who received vancomycin (Appendix V Table 1) or a fluoroquinolone (Appendix V Table 2) for prophylactic antibiotics should have the antibiotics administered within two hours prior to surgical incision. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Antibiotic - administered prior 1hr Clinical Trial (HK2016) Other surgeries (HK2016) Measure Exclusions: Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set. Other Surgeries - Documentation in the medical record stating that the patient has undergone a procedure requiring general or spinal/epidural anaesthesia that occurred, during this hospital stay, within three days prior to or after the principal procedure Page 4
5 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-02 Temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Hip and knee replacement patients should have their temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: Keeping patients warm has been associated with a threefold decrease in the rate of wound infection, a reduction in operative blood loss, a decrease in untoward cardiac events, including ventricular tachycardia, and a reduction in nitrogen excretion and patient discomfort. Maintenance of a normal temperature during surgery is central to reducing the stress of the surgical procedure and reducing the risk of organ dysfunction. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who have their temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision. Denominator Statement: Number of patients eligible to have their temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who have their temperature taken within 1 hour prior to surgical incision. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Clinical Trial (HK2016) Other surgeries (HK2016) Temperature Recorded Measure Exclusions: Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set. Other Surgeries - Documentation in the medical record stating that the patient has undergone a procedure requiring general or spinal/epidural anaesthesia that occurred, during this hospital stay, within three days prior to or after the principal procedure Page 5
6 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-03 Tranexamic acid administered during surgery Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Hip and knee replacement patients should be administered tranexamic acid within 1 hour of surgical incision, either prior to or after. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: An intraoperative dose of tranexamic acid has been shown to reduce the perioperative decrease in haemoglobin and red blood cell transfusion rates in patients having TKA and THA. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who have tranexamic acid administered during surgery. Denominator Statement: Number of patients who are eligible to have tranexamic acid administered during surgery. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who have tranexamic acid administered during surgery. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Clinical Trial (HK2016) Other surgeries (HK2016) Tranexamic acid - administered Tranexamic acid - reason Measure Exclusions: Tranexamic acid - Documentation in the medical record a reason or contraindication for not administering tranexamic acid. Other Surgeries - Documentation in the medical record stating that the patient has undergone a procedure requiring general or spinal/epidural anaesthesia that occurred, during this hospital stay, within three days prior to or after the principal procedure. Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set. Page 6
7 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-04 Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Received appropriate VTE prophylaxis within 12 hours of surgery end time Hip and knee replacement patients should have a recommended venous thromboembolism prophylaxis administered within 12 hours of surgery end time. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: Evidence that VTE is one of the most common postoperative complications and prophylaxis is the most effective strategy to reduce morbidity and mortality, it is often underused. The frequency of venous thromboembolism (VTE), that includes deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is related to the type and duration of surgery, patient risk factors, duration and extent of postoperative immobilization, and use or non-use of prophylaxis. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who have a recommended pharmacological venous thromboembolism prophylaxis administered within 12 hours of surgery end time. Denominator Statement: Number of patients eligible to have a recommended pharmacological venous thromboembolism prophylaxis administered within 12 hours of surgery end time. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who have a recommended pharmacological venous thromboembolism prophylaxis administered within 12 hours of surgery end time. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Bleeding Risk - documented Clinical Trial (HK2016) Dural Puncture (HK2016) Severe Renal Impairment Time Exclusion VTE Prophylaxis - declined VTE Prophylaxis - reason VTE Prophylaxis - type VTE Prophylaxis in 12 hrs Warfarin - surgery Measure Exclusions: Patients who decline VTE therapy Patients who have a bleeding risk Patients with traumatic puncture of dura during insertion of epidural catheter Patients with a reason or contraindication documented by Consultant for not administering VTE Time exclusion - Patient was discharged within 12 hours of surgery end time, or surgery lasted less than 30 minutes Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set.

8 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-05 Patient walking within 24 hours of surgery end time Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Hip and knee replacement patients should be walking within 24 hours of surgery end time. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: Early mobilisation walking following total hip & knee replacement has been found to reduce the risk of deep-vein thrombosis and other complications. Early mobilisation was defined as beginning to walk within 24 hours after hip/ knee replacement surgery end time. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who are walking within 24 hours of surgery end time. Denominator Statement: Number of patients who are eligible to be walking within 24 hours of surgery end time. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who are walking within 24 hours of surgery end time. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Clinical Trial (HK2016) Other surgeries (HK2016) Walking - reason Walking - refused Walking - within 24 hours Measure Exclusions: Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set Other Surgeries - Documentation in the medical record stating that the patient has undergone a procedure requiring general or spinal/epidural anaesthesia that occurred, during this hospital stay, within three days prior to or after the principal procedure Documentation in the patient notes that they refused to walk Documentation in the patient notes that there was a reason they were unable to walk Page 8
9 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-06 Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Regular prescription of analgesia and laxative on day of surgery Hip and knee replacement patients should have documentation in their medical records of a regular prescription of analgesia and laxative on the day of surgery. Measure Type: Clinical Process Measure Rationale: A regular prescription of analgesia and laxatives on the day of surgery will reduce post-operative pain, encourage early mobilisation and reduce the risk of constipation in the post-operative period. Numerator Statement: Number of patients who receive a regular prescription of analgesia and laxatives on the day of surgery. Denominator Statement: Number of patients who are eligible to receive a regular prescription of analgesia and laxatives on the day of surgery. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who receive a regular prescription of analgesia and laxatives on the day of surgery. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Analgesia and Laxative - prescribed Analgesia and Laxative - reason Clinical Trial (HK2016) Other surgeries (HK2016) Measure Exclusions: Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set Medical contraindication or reason not to prescribe analgesia and laxative Other Surgeries - Documentation in the medical record stating that the patient has undergone a procedure requiring general or spinal/epidural anaesthesia that occurred, during this hospital stay, within three days prior to or after the principal procedure Page 9
10 Measure ID: Measure Name: HK-07 Pre-op patient education Unique Record Identifier: Measure Description: Hip and knee replacement patients should receive pre-operative education prior to surgery. Measure Type: Data Measure - Mandatory Rationale: Educating patients about postoperative routines may reduce the incidence of postoperative complications, the most serious of which is pulmonary embolism resulting from deep vein thrombosis and other post-operative complications. If a patient is unduly anxious, physical recovery and well-being may be affected, prolonging hospital stay and increasing the cost of care. By ensuring full understanding of the operation and postoperative routines, and promoting physical recovery and psychological well-being through preparatory information, it is hypothesised that patients will be less anxious, have a shorter hospital stay and be better able to cope with postoperative pain. Numerator Statement: The number of patients who receive pre-operative patient education. Denominator Statement: The number of patients who are eligible to receive pre-operative patient education. Measure Reported As: The percentage of patients who receive pre-operative patient education. Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Data Elements: To be considered complete the following data elements should be recorded for the measure:- Clinical Trial (HK2016) Pre-Op Education Pre-Op Education - reason Measure Exclusions: Clinical Trial - There is evidence in the medical record that the patient participated in a clinical trial affecting care or treatment related to this AQ measure set There is a documented reason in the patient notes for not participating in pre-op education Page 10
