3 To promote quality improvement, Cleveland Clinic Florida has created a series of Outcomes books similar to this one for many of its departments. Designed for a physician audience, the Outcomes books contain a summary of our surgical and medical trends and approaches, data on patient volumes and outcomes, and a review of new technologies and innovations. Although we are unable to report all outcomes for all treatments provided at Cleveland Clinic Florida omission of outcomes for a particular treatment does not necessarily mean we do not offer that treatment our goal is to increase outcomes reporting each year. When outcomes for a specific treatment are unavailable, we often report process measures associated with improved outcomes. When process measures are unavailable, we may report volume measures; a volume/outcome relationship has been demonstrated for many treatments, particularly those involving surgical techniques. In addition to our internal efforts to measure clinical quality, Cleveland Clinic Florida supports transparent public reporting of healthcare quality data and participates in the following public reporting initiatives: Joint Commission Performance Measurement Initiative (qualitycheck.org) Centers for Medicare & Medicaid (CMS) Hospital Compare (hospitalcompare.hhs.gov) Agency for Healthcare Administration Centers for Disease Control Our commitment to providing accurate, timely information about patient care also will help patients and referring physicians make informed healthcare decisions. We hope you find these data valuable.

4 Chairman s Letter The Robert and Suzanne Tomsich Department of Cardiovascular Medicine provides comprehensive cardiovascular services. We are committed to not only providing the best outcomes, but also to sharing this information with the medical community and the public. This resource, which is a review the department s outcomes, trends and treatment approaches, underscores the dedication and achievement of our many health care professionals and caregivers. For the 17th consecutive year, Cleveland Clinic s heart program ranked as the best in the nation, earning the No. 1 ranking in U.S. News & World Report s Best Hospitals. By adhering to the same mission statement and following similar protocols, we deliver world-class cardiovascular care in Florida through a seamless transfer of information and the benefit of cutting edge technology shared through our combined services. Our Florida and Cleveland campuses are integrated to synergize our collaborations and outcomes. Increasingly science-and-technology breakthroughs are transforming cardiovascular medicine and surgery. As the number of management options increase, patients benefit; however, choosing the best treatment can become a more difficult task. Our entire team is dedicated to determine the best strategy for each patient and to assure the highest quality of care is provided. We hope you will find this information useful. The Robert and Suzanne Tomsich Department of Cardiology is a national leader in the prevention, evaluation and treatment of cardiovascular disease. The department offers patients advanced diagnosis, innovative treatments and comprehensive management by expert cardiologists collaborating among their areas of specialization to achieve excellent treatment outcomes and improved quality of life for our patients. All Cleveland Clinic cardiologists are subspecialty trained to effectively evaluate patients with specific cardiovascular concerns. Additionally, the department includes a section of Vascular Medicine. Vascular surgical specialists provide comprehensive surgical treatments in collaboration with cardiovascular medicine. The Robert and Suzanne Tomsich Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery also offers state-of-the-art cardiac and thoracic surgical treatment. Randall C.

6 Heart Failure Heart Failure National Hospital Quality Measures 21 Heart failure care performance measures are available online at hospitalcompare.hhs.gov, a consumer-oriented website hosted by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). Process Measures (often referred to as core measures): Hospitals submit heart failure process-of-care data that show how consistently recommended care was provided to adult patients, irrespective of payer.

7 Heart Failure Heart Failure Outcome Measures CMS calculates two heart failure outcome measures: all-cause mortality and all-cause readmission rates, each based on Medicare claims and enrollment information. Cleveland Clinic Florida s performance appears below. Cleveland Clinic Florida s heart failure risk-adjusted 3-day mortality rate is below the national average. Our heart failure risk-adjusted readmission rate is at the national average. In an effort to reduce the readmission rate, transition-ofcare strategies are being developed and deployed. These include pre-discharge needs assessment, improved discharge processes (patient education, relay of discharge information to receiving providers), and post-discharge follow-up including continued clinical management support.

11 Cardiac Rhythm Disorders EP Laboratory Procedures 21 Cleveland Clinic Florida electrophysiologists use specialized approaches to diagnose and treat a wide variety of arrhythmias. Procedures performed in 21 are shown below. The total number of procedures includes some that are not detailed in the graph below. Volume Pacemakers ICDs Total Ablations Pulmonary Vein Antrum Isolation Procedures (PVAI) Cardioversions Pulmonary Vein Antrum Isolation (PVAI) essentially disconnects the pathway of the abnormal heart rhythm and prevents atrial fibrillation. Cleveland Clinic Florida continues to be a leading center in performing non-surgical catheterbased ablation therapies used to treat atrial fibrillation, atrial flutter and supraventricular tachycardia. Volume 2 ICD Procedures 21 Volume Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) help prevent sudden cardiac death. Biventricular ICD devices help prevent cardiac death and assist in the management of heart failure. Volumes noted are for both types of devices. At Cleveland Clinic Florida, there has been no documented case of device pocket infection (either after initial implant, replacement, revision or upgrade) since 23, in approximately 18 cases. We believe this is a reflection of technique and the tight infection control measures in the hospital Outcomes 21 Cleveland Clinic Florida 19
