“With the growing knowledge that millions of patients are being harmed daily throughout the world as a consequence of preventable adverse events, the urgency could not be greater for patient safety solutions that will help practitioners and health care organizations avoid these tragic occurrences.”

CREW RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (CRM)

“CRM is not and never will be the mechanism to eliminate error and assure safety in a high-risk endeavor…” Helmreich, Merritt,

and Wilhelm, (1999) The International Journal of Aviation Psychology

CREW RESOURCE MANAGEMENT (CRM)

“The safety of operations is influenced by professional, organizational, and national cultures and safety requires focusing each of these toward an organizational ‘safety culture’ that deals with errors nonpunitively and proactively.” Helmreich, Merritt, and Wilhelm, (1999) The International Journal of Aviation Psychology

PURPOSE-BASED DECISION MAKING

Application

PURPOSE-BASED DECISION MAKING

• Emotional Hijacking• Working Memory

PURPOSE-BASED DECISION MAKING

Emotional Hi-jacking “Emotions can quickly

hijack other brain processes, diverting attention, and determining what will be remembered, and what won't.” (Eide, F., Eide, B., http://stanford.wellsphere.com/brain-health-article/emotional-hijack/469427)

PURPOSE-BASED DECISION MAKING

Working Memory “The ability to hold in mind information in the face of potentially interfering distraction in order to guide behavior.”

Jarrold & Towse, “Individual Differences in Working Memory,” 2006

Working Memory—Nor-mal Lapses “The occurrence of lapses may be critical in occupational groups with a need to maintain a high level of alertness… Lapses in these occupations can have disastrous consequences, including multiple fatalities.”

Peiris, Davidson, & Bones, “Event-based Detection of Lapses of Responsiveness, 2008

EVALUATING TRAINING

KIRKPATRICK’S TYPOLOGY

Evaluating Training: A Multi-Level Approach

KIRKPATRICK’S TYPOLOGY

1. Reaction of the Student to The Training

Was the training worthwhile, relevant, and interesting?

KIRKPATRICK’S TYPOLOGY

1. Reaction of the Student to The Training

Data Can be Captured Through: Feedback Forms (Student

Evaluations) Online Feedback Verbal Reaction

KIRKPATRICK’S TYPOLOGY

2. Is There Evidence of Student Learning?

Assessment of Learning is Based on Ability, Knowledge, and

Attitudes

KIRKPATRICK’S TYPOLOGY

2. Is There Evidence of Student Learning?

Data Collection: - Attitudinal Questionnaires - Assessment Testing (Pre/Post) - Observation and/or Interview - Trained Observers in Simulation

OUR RESULTS

Baptist Medical Center East – PACU Staffing: Five or six nurses per day Patient Population: 3,996 patients

during the 24 month study Study Period: November 2006—

October 2008 Control: November 2006—October 2007

(2,024 Patients) Experimental: November 2007—October

2008 (1,972 Patients)

Patient Safety:“Freedom from accidental injury,” or “avoiding injuries or harm to patients from care that is intended to help them.” Ensuring patient safety “involves the establishment of operational systems and processes that minimize the likelihood of errors and maximizes the likelihood of intercepting them when they occur.”

Complication:“An injury caused by medical management rather than by the underlying disease or condition of the patient.” In general, adverse events prolong the hospitalization, produce a disability at the time of discharge, or both.

OUR RESULTS

Patient Safety Indicants:OUR RESULTS

Reintubation: An unexpected reintubation is defined as an intubation that occurs in PACU after anesthesia has extubated the patient in surgery and the patient has been able to maintain their airway prior to placement in the PACU.

The six “areas of evidence” used are: 1. Face Validity, 2. Precision, 3. Minimum Bias, 4. Construct Validity, 5. Fosters Real Quality Improvement, 6. Application

Patient Safety Indicants:OUR RESULTS

Unplanned Admissions to a Critical Care Unit: These admissions are defined as an unexpected decline in patient status and requiring a higher level of care. All PACU patients identified in advance as requiring postoperative ICU/CCU care were excluded from the data.

The six “areas of evidence” used are: 1. Face Validity, 2. Precision, 3. Minimum Bias, 4. Construct Validity, 5. Fosters Real Quality Improvement, 6. Application

Patient Safety Indicants:OUR RESULTS

Post-operative Complications: These are defined as bleeding or cardiovascular issue(s) requiring unplanned treatment. Untreated, such complications would lead to a rapid worsening in the patients’ condition.
