Call 2: Evidence Supporting the Use of the Checklist and The Importance of the Checklist Implementation Team

Topics Covered on the Last Webinar Checklist Development and Background. Why South Carolina? The impact of the Safe Surgery 2015: South Carolina on surgical safety globally. Going beyond the “Time Out”.

Lorri Gibbons, RN, BSN, CPHQ VP, Quality & Patient Safety Meet the Team Lorri Gibbons, RN, BSN, CPHQ VP, Quality & Patient Safety SCHA

Poll 1 Are you using a surgical checklist that requires the surgical team to stop and discuss critical items at three points of time (Before Induction of Anesthesia, Before Skin Incision, and Before the Patient Leaves the Room)? Yes No If you answered yes, what percentage of surgical cases are using this type of checklist routinely? <50% >50% It is used for every patient undergoing surgery

Today’s Topics A full review of articles that have been written about the impact of the checklist. The importance of data to physicians and how to talk to physician’s about data. Building a Checklist Implementation Team: Poll The role that this team plays Who should be on the team How often the team should meet How to find the “right” people to lead this work

Journal of American College of Surgeons.

Compliance to NICE VTE guidelines were prospectively assessed in all general surgery patients over two separate audit periods, before and after 6 months of the routine use of the WHO checklist. Correct completion of the checklist was verified. Results: 370 patients (173 [47%] male, 197 [53%] female, mean age 61.6 yrs). Non compliance to NICE VTE guidelines was reduced form 16/233 (6.9%) to 3/137 (2.1%) after introduction of the checklist ( p 1/4 0.046 Fisher exact test). Non compliance was reduced in both emergency and elective procedures. Conclusions: Establishment of theWHOchecklist for routine use in all general surgery patients may significantly improve VTE guideline compliance of all general surgery patients Truran et al.

During a 7-week period, a prospective study was performed to evaluate the completion of all preincision components of the surgical checklist. Pediatric surgical operations were selected for direct observation. In addition, a poststudy survey was used to assess perception and understanding of the checklist process. Results. A total of 142 pediatric surgical cases were observed. Hospital reported data demonstrated 100% compliance with the preincision phase of the checklist for these cases. None of the cases completely executed all items on the checklist, and the average number of checklist items performed in the observed cases was 4 of 13. The most commonly performed checkpoint were the confirmation of patient name and procedure (99%) and the ‘‘timeout’’ at the start of the checklist (97%). The rest of the checkpoints were performed in less than 60% of cases. Adherence did not increase during the observation period. Conclusion. These data show that despite the 100% documented completion of the preincision phase of the checklist; most of the individual checkpoints are either not executed as designed or not executed at all. These findings demonstrate lack of checklist implementation fidelity, which may be a reflection a poor implementation and dissemination strategy. ( Shauna L. et al.

What Does the Evidence Mean to Physicians?

There Will Never Be The Perfect Study Individuals can always find something to argue about in data. . . . Data is often used as the argument to not change or adopt behaviors/tools that improve patient safety

Evidence “Driven” Behavior

Believing

Physician Engagement Observed During a Surgical Checklist Implementation

Building an Implementation Team

Poll 2 Are you listening to the call as a group or an individual? Suggest we remove

Make an Implementation Team Administrator/Quality Improvement Officer Anesthesiologists and/or CRNA Circulating Nurse Scrub Tech Surgeon Others (Perfusionists, PA’s, Biomedical Engineers, Anesthesia Techs, Pre-op nursing, etc)

Find Clinical Champions The nurses will know. Pick those who are respected and who will be supportive. The support of “formal” leadership is absolutely necessary but those leaders are often not the ones who should guide this effort directly.

Recommendations on How Often and When to Meet as A Team Meet regularly. Choose someone to organize the meeting schedule and be a point of contact for people in your hospital and our team. A good time to meet together would be following each webinar. It is better to meet with part of the group than not at all. Your physician champions don’t have to be part of every meeting.

What Should You Tell Checklist Implementation Team Members This team will be responsible for the following tasks: Administering the culture survey Modifying and customizing the checklist Guiding small scale testing of the checklist Devising the implementation plan Educating and training clinicians to use the checklist Coaching teams on continued use of the checklist Regularly report progress to hospital administration

Homework Think about who you are going to have on your checklist implementation team. Please contact Katie Jahreis to administer the culture survey kjahreis@hsph.harvard.edu.
