1 Clinical Safety & Effectiveness Cohort # 13 Improve the multidisciplinary approach in the care of patients with thyroid cancer DATE Educating for Quality Improvement & Patient Safety 1
2 Background Context: Scheduling patient with thyroid cancer for I131 involves the many physician located at different locations such as the MARC, TDI and UCCH north. It also involves UHS admissions, bed control, hospitalist, nuclear medicine physicians and technologist, radiation safety and nursing. In addition, the process begins during a follow up clinic visit and can take up to two hours to arrange. Rationale: At this time the endocrinology fellows are responsible for coordinating this care and as the number of physicians and patients have increased, the process has become more involved which can lead to errors. 2

4 What Are We Trying to Accomplish? OUR AIM STATEMENT To decrease by 50% the amount of clinic time used to arrange admissions for I131 treatment for patients with thyroid cancer, by implementing an electronic order set and a web based scheduling tool accessible to ordering physicians, nuclear medicine, nursing, radiation safety and admissions by January

How you will measure Manual data collection via use of observation and a stop watch Specific targets for change -- To decrease by 50% the amount of clinic time used to arrange admissions for I131 treatment for patients with thyroid cancer by January

10 How Will We Know That an Intervention is an Improvement? We were unable to prospectively get more data using the start and end times. Types of measures The team used a retrospective proxy measure of registration of patient to check out cycle time beginning in January 2013 and end in August How you will measure The metric used was collected via e-time stamp within the EMR. Specific targets for change -- To decrease by 50% the amount of clinic time used to arrange admissions for I131 treatment for patients with thyroid cancer by January
11 Pre-Intervention Data Comment: Data specific to the timeframe indicated in the flow is being collected. The data shown above represents the time from registration through the patient check out, as this was electronically documented and easily obtained. 11
12 Interventions We Will Make That Will Result in an Improvement? Intervention #1 e-calendar for simultaneous notification of all involved in the admission for I131 therapy. Intervention #2 e-order Set for I131 to simplify the process and standardize the orders. 12
13 Intervention #1 and # 2 Plan What? Create an e-calendar on SharePoint and I131 Thyroid Cancer Care Order Set in Sunrise EMR Who? developed by Drs. Becker and Bruder Where? The e-calendar to be placed on UHS SharePoint with automatic reminders to all involved parties and the order set to be placed electronically in Sunrise with pre-determined set of defaults. When? by November 25 13

24 Action Implementing the Change The order set was piloted by Dr. Bruder on 11/05/13 with appropriate notifications sent to nuclear medicine and bed control. The e-calendar was piloted by Dr. Becker on 11/12/13 with appropriate notifications sent to physicians in nuclear medicine and to administrators in bed control. Issues identified were redundant s sent to many recipients. Moreover, a notification was not sent to the head tech in nuclear medicine. Issues have been reviewed with IT. 24
25 Key Time Points The order set was moved out of the test mode into the order template UCCH Endocrine Orders in Sunrise EMR on 11/25/2013. The final recipients list for the share point calendar was created and retested on 11/25/2013 The calendar went live in December 2013 Patients that had been scheduled in the old system were added to the electronic sharepoint calendar in December In December, patients were timed using the new system: start and end time per flow diagram Proxy time from check in to check out DATA COLLECTION WAS LIMITED AS A RESULT OF THE HOLIDAYS 25
