Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

A Model for Improving Neonatal Intensive Care

The Pediatrix model for

continuous quality

improvement starts at

the bedside

Physicians and

advanced practice

nurses provide bedside

care to thousands of

babies every day

Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

A Model for Improving Neonatal Intensive Care

As daily care is provided, clinical data is entered

into the BabySteps clinical documentation

system to generate clinical notes

Key data is immediately available within the

system to guide clinical decision making:

• Growth charts, medication days, duration of

vascular catheters and endotracheal tubes, etc.

Most importantly, these multiple data points are automatically

extracted into the Clinical Data Warehouse, providing detailed

information on outcomes and key processes in that neonatal

intensive care unit

Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

A Model for Improving Neonatal Intensive Care

Clinical Data Warehouse (CDW) is the largest

known database for neonatal medicine. More

than 700,000 patients and 13,000,000 patient

days currently exist in the CDW

More than 20% of the babies receiving NICU

care in the US are included in the CDW

Prior to extraction into the CDW, the clinical data undergoes an extensive

de-identification and validation process to establish compliance with

Common Rule and HIPAA regulations and ascertain data reliability

Personal identifiers are removed from the data, but the NICU location is

retained to enable each practice to view it’s own data and compare and

benchmark their results against the Pediatrix Network

Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

How does data get from BabySteps to the CDW??

Clinical data

(medications, procedures,

diagnoses, cultures, lab

results, etc) is entered

into BabySteps

Key fields (563 data

points) are extracted and

imported into the CDW

database to generate

specific clinical reports

Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

How does the CDW work?Multiple clinical

reports are available,

including mortality and

many morbidities.

Numerous reports are

available on nutrition,

medication use,

ventilator days, central

catheter use and

much more

Clinical reports can be filtered in various ways,

such as by birth weight, gestational age,

inborn/outborn status, region, and NICU volume

Clinical Data Warehouse evolution Most detailed database for neonatal medicine More than 700,000 pts. and 13,000,000 pt. days Forms the basis for many CQI projects at both corporate

and local levels Queried for information by NIH, FDA, NICHD Neonatal

Network Recognized by AAP and ABP for its scope

▪ Pediatrix selected as charter member of AAP/ABP Quality Improvement Committee

▪ CDW and QualitySteps will serve as basis for Board Maintenance of Certification Part IV for Pediatrix MDs (“Portfolio Sponsor”) of ABP – first (and only) group to date granted this privilege

QualitySteps: CQI Project Documentation Tool

Data from the CDW is

used to determine what

areas are in need of

improvement

QualitySteps provides

resources and guidance

for the development and

implementation of CQI

projects

QualitySteps serves as a CQI project management tool. Project goals, teams,

progress notes, additional data, and more are collected and stored on the

system, enabling multidisciplinary teams to collaborate efficiently on projects

The Run Chart will have all the data points you documented along with annotations.

By programming an appropriate series of questions, QualityStepshas the flexibility to be used in any specialty of medicine

Currently developing anesthesiology module as seen here

Pediatrix Continuous Quality Improvement

Implementing CQI Projects

During project

implementation, data from

BabySteps continuously

feeds into the CDW, with a

one week time lag

This provides the essential

data feedback needed for

ongoing improvement

back to the bedside

The end result: improved

Denial: These data can’t be right!

Anger: Why are they picking on me? Don’t I have enough

to do already?

Bargaining: My patients must be sicker than everyone

else’s, my NICU is different, I don’t agree with those data

definitions, etc.

Depression: I can’t do anything about it anyway….

Acceptance: OK…what can I do to improve the outcomes

in my NICU?

Perform an innovative, comprehensive system redesign of critical practices and procedures in neonatal intensive care

Over a two year period, redesign the system of care provided to 100,000 NICU babies within Pediatrix Medical Group

Build a reusable national infrastructure for continuous quality improvement in neonatal intensive care

Extend campaign to include academic centers

The problem is not the clinician, it is the complex system in which the clinician practices (Institute of Medicine)

The most efficient and productive way to improve outcomes is by re-engineering care to produce optimal outcomes Imploring clinicians to “try harder” is not productive: we must fix the system,

not fight the system

Re-engineering requires accurate, detailed data BabySteps Data Warehouse and QualitySteps for data

collection

Enhance Nutrition: Maximize breast milk use, use a standardized feeding protocol, and provide

early protein

Improve Medication Use: Optimize use of antenatal steroids, caffeine, and surfactant. Optimize

antibiotic choice and exposure, decrease cephalosporin use, H-2 blocker use, and postnatal steroid use, standardize oxygen management

Minimize Mechanical Ventilation: Minimize ventilator duration, Optimize nasal CPAP technique

Optimize Central Line Use: Standardized central line insertion process, standardized central line

maintenance process, and minimize central line duration

Reduce Suboptimal Admission Temperatures: Standardize initial thermal management
