Executive summary This report provides an overview of the Scottish Diaphragmatic Hernia Clinical Network’s Network’s key achievements in the financial year from 1st April 2015 to 31st March 2016 and plans for the forthcoming financial year. Key achievements include the delivery of a multi-disciplinary programme of healthcare; professional education in diaphragmatic hernia; collection of some useful data on all Scottish cases referred to one of the three specialist units and collecting some limited feedback from families on the patient information leaflets. The network also has the distinction of being recognised in the Mothers and Babies –Reducing Risk through Audit and Confidential Enquiries across the UK (MBRRACE-UK) report published in December 2014. One of the key findings of this study was that they reported that the SDHCN clinical pathways were examples of good practice. This was against their findings that in most parts of the UK
services were not patient centred.
Plans for 2016/17 include undertaking a stakeholder analysis and review of its communication and engagement strategy, developing its data collection methodology so that more quality indicators can be measured, initiating patient/parent engagement and continuing to deliver education.

Introduction The Scottish Diaphragmatic Hernia Clinical Network (SDHCN) was designated as a national managed
clinical network in 2008.
The NMCN encompasses the diagnosis (preferably antenatal), medical and surgical treatment and long-term follow up of children born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia. This condition requires the input of a
tertiary centre but many aspects of care can be managed locally.
Mothers to be with an antenatal diagnosis of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) should be offered the most comprehensive and up to date counselling to allow them to plan their pregnancy and delivery in a Unit with appropriately experienced clinicians. Though surgery is only undertaken in three Specialist Paediatric Surgical Units in Scotland, local teams will provide much of the later care for patients close to their own homes. The network facilitates consistency to ensure that all health professionals, parents/carers and
patients themselves have equitable and evidence based treatment plans.
To date the NMCN has undertaken work to create pathways and guidelines for the management of CDH at antenatal, inpatient and follow up stages. Parent information leaflets have been developed to ensure all parents get appropriate information at antenatal and postnatal stages. The network has developed a website to share information about CDH and all materials developed by the network are available here to professionals and families. The network has also developed and published 8 evidence based standards of best practice, aligned to different stages of the patient pathway. Each of these standards has a measurable quality indicator.
Aim/ Purpose/ Mission Statement /Designation objectives of network The overall role of SDHCN is to optimise long term clinical outcomes in CDH by:
Promoting recognition of CDH at Fetal Anomaly Scan (FAS).
To ensure equity of access to a standardised, high quality care pathway for mother and baby across
Scotland (covering antenatal, perinatal, surgery and long term follow up).
Developing an appropriate antenatal, delivery and postnatal plan for each fetus with CDH, based on
the antenatal findings and taking into account the mother’s preference.
To deliver standardised pathways supporting care delivered as close to home as clinically possible
To collect data to evaluate the service delivery model against national clinical governance checks
and benchmark against UK and international performance measures.
To introduce a formalised management infrastructure that will support the coordinated strategic long term planning for future service delivery of DH services (nationally and regionally)
Identify training needs and facilitate the design, development and delivery of education and training both for clinicians directly involved in the treatment of mothers and babies with CDH.

Report against Workplan Data
There were 20 births in this reporting period with a confirmed diagnosis of CDH known to the Network (reporting period Nov 2014 to December 2015). This information is collected through the review of all CDH cases presented at the annual educational meeting and represents the number of cases referred to one of the three specialist units. However, to date we have not been able to access the information required to ascertain if these cases represent all confirmed diagnosis in Scotland during this period as there is currently
no national register available.
Of the 20 births, 12 were diagnosed antenatally and 7 of these were diagnosed outwith a specialist centre. The network’s antenatal guideline recommends that where this happens the case should be discussed with a specialist centre within 5 days of diagnosis and then the woman offered referral to that centre for management of the pregnancy and birth. Review of all of these cases shows that this standard was met
(100%). The majority of this management was in Glasgow. The table below breaks down this information.

Of the 8 births diagnosed postnatally, 50% were born outwith a specialist centre. The network sets a standard that these cases should be discussed with the relevant specialist centre within 2 hours of diagnosis. A review of the 4 babies born outwith specialist centres shows that in all 4 cases this standard was met (100%). There were also 2 births which had a late diagnosis. The table below breaks down this
information.

Patient Survival Rate
As at the end of the reporting period, there was a 100% survival rate to discharge however one patient still remains in hospital in Glasgow.
Three babies were given surfactant which the SDHCN in-patient guidelines do not recommend. In all three cases the babies were born out with a specialist centre. This anomaly will be followed up and investigated by the network as part of the 2016/2017 workplan. These babies were born at 36, 39 and 40 weeks
gestation.
The table below depicts the surgical information for the network.
Data collection for CDH has been challenging and has to date been captured through the review of cases at the annual education event. Going forward, the network plans to use the existing Badger neonatal system to capture some basic information supported by the Information Management Service within the
National Network Management Service and working in collaboration with the regional neonatal networks.
The capture of information about any fetus identified with a CDH antenatally is even more difficult as the condition is rare and health professionals may encounter very few. It is critical that prospective parents are given appropriate information and counselling at this stage as recommended by both the antenatal guideline and pathway developed for professionals and the information leaflet for parents. A review of information held by ISD on terminations of pregnancies over the last 5 years identified that there were a small number of terminations with CDH. The reasons for these terminations are currently unknown and it is also not known what the whether these families were given appropriate information and counselling and this is what the Network would wish to address. The Network will look to explore the development of a surveillance type system to be alerted to any identified cases and ensure the prospective parents are given
the appropriate advice.

Professional Education
The Network held a successful national education event at the Teacher Building in Glasgow in November 2015. The morning session included speakers on antenatal, inpatient and follow up management. The afternoon session concentrated on case presentation and discussion for all Scottish cases of CDH over the previous two years. A further event is planned for 2016. A summary of the evaluation from the report is
shown below:-
The event was attended by 63 people, 52 feedback forms were completed (83%). The feedback received
was split into the professional groups below.
As seen above, the delegates were a good mix of different disciplines and overall, the majority felt that there was no bias or conflict of interest evident in the course.
Delegates were asked to rate each component on a scale of 1(poor) – 5(excellent).
The relevance of this CPD activity to the delegate’s educational needs and the overall quality of education were thought to be of a high standard with each element being rated in the top two fields by over 85% as
evidenced in the charts below.
Opinion of the venue was favourable. This was reflected in the general comments with reference made to
good central location and catering.

Relevance of Educational Needs
Overall Quality of Education offered
Additional feedback regarding the speakers was received:
Excellent day. All speakers highly knowledgeable. Thanks.
Educational and entertaining.
Most informative. Very educational and set at a good level.
Mr Walker was an excellent host for the day.
Interesting topics.
Very good speakers. Easy to listen to interesting content.
Only 2% felt that the stated learning aims/objectives of the course were not met, 81% deemed the printed learning aims/objectives to be met with 17% failing to provide an answer. The following comments were made:
Information and knowledge gained today will be useful and some can certainly be integrated into my
practice. However, mostly I will be involved antenatally at ultrasound.
Some topics too detailed for nursing.
Very informative day and have gained lots of knowledge and evidence based care.

A general comment on how helpful the CDH leaflet is for counselling patients, thank you and a plea:
it would be helpful to have information leaflets online for the other conditions discussed to ensure
consistency of information given to the parents during the counselling process.
Guideline/Pathway Review
A survey has been conducted to review the awareness of and use of the antenatal guidelines and pathways previously developed by the network. Although a few boards did not respond, the overall results of this
have been positive with a summary of findings below.
Health board/ Site Awareness Diagnosis
Referral (past 5 years)
Forth Valley N Y Y
Fife Y Y Y
Ayrshire Y Y Y
Inverness N Y Y
Dundee Y Y Y
Lanarkshire N Y Y
Glasgow Y Y Y
Edinburgh Y Y Y
The table above depicts that despite 3 health boards not having an awareness of the pathway they are still working within the guidelines that have been set out within it for diagnosis and referral. The network plans to address the lack of awareness of the antenatal guideline with the remaining boards as part of the
engagement with antenatal services in the 2016/17 workplan.
Plans for the year ahead
The Network has identified a number of priority areas for 2016/17:
Reviewing network organisation. In 2016/17, the Network plans to undertake a stakeholder
analysis and review its communications and engagement to ensure that it is structured to be able to effectively deliver its objectives and workplan. Engagement is challenging as CDH makes up a small part of health professionals case load so the network will explore further working in partnership with
the regional neonatal networks as part of this process.
Data collection. The Network plans to explore what data can be collected through existing
systems such as Badger to help report against the standards identified. Identifying all foetal diagnoses with CDH is challenging but important to ensure that all prospective parents are given the appropriate advice and support. The Network will explore the use of a surveillance type system as
an alert to any cases identified and ensure the right support is given.
Patient/ Parent Engagement. Recognising the importance of patients and parents views driving
the work of the Network, there are plans to undertake a clinic questionnaire to identify what is important to them at key stages through their journey. This will enable the Network to identify and progress any areas for improvement. The Network has links to CDH-UK and will work with them on further on engagement opportunities. The voluntary group are planning a Scottish event in August
2016 which will give the network an opportunity to engage with both CDH-UK and Scottish families.
Education. The Network plans to hold another annual study day which will comprise of didactic talks and peer review of CDH cases in Scotland over the previous year. The Network will also work with the neonatal networks to identify opportunities to build CDH education into their wider
programme of neonatal education.

Service model review. Building on the information captured through engagement with families,
data collection and review of adverse events, the Network will review the service model to ensure
that it is optimal.
A more detailed report is supplied in the Workplan 2016-2017 shown after the 2015/2016 workplan.
Network governance The SDHCN has established core governance structures to ensure it operates as a nationally commissioned MCN in line with the Scottish Government’s core principles for MCN’s and delivers on its agreed aims and objectives. This has included the development and ratification of a new service level agreement for 2015-2017; as well as terms of reference. SDHCN is organised around three Paediatric Tertiary Centres in Scotland-Aberdeen, Glasgow and Edinburgh but has multi-disciplinary membership from
all Scottish services.
The membership of the Network is included as Appendix 1 in this report.
