Accuracy of real-time delivery room resuscitation documentation.

ABSTRACT: OBJECTIVE:To assess the accuracy of real-time delivery room resuscitation documentation. DESIGN:Retrospective observational study. SETTING:Level 3 academic neonatal intensive care unit. PARTICIPANTS:Fifty infants with video recording of neonatal resuscitation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Vital sign assessments and interventions performed during resuscitation. The accuracy of written documentation was compared with video gold standard. RESULTS:Timing of initial heart rate assessment agreed with video in 44/50 (88%) records; the documented heart rate was correct in 34/44 (77%) of these. Heart rate and oxygen saturation were documented at 5?min of life in 90% of resuscitations. Of these, 100% of heart rate and 93% of oxygen saturation values were correctly recorded. Written records accurately reflected the mode(s) of respiratory support for 89%-100%, procedures for 91%-100% and medications for 100% of events. CONCLUSION:Real-time documentation correctly reflects interventions performed during delivery room resuscitation but is less accurate for early vital sign assessments.

Project description:ObjectiveTo investigate whether real-time audio and visual feedback during cardiopulmonary resuscitation outside hospital increases the proportion of subjects who achieved prehospital return of spontaneous circulation.DesignA cluster-randomised trial.Subjects1586 people having cardiac arrest outside hospital in whom resuscitation was attempted by emergency medical services (771 procedures without feedback, 815 with feedback).SettingEmergency medical services from three sites within the Resuscitation Outcomes Consortium in the United States and Canada.InterventionReal-time audio and visual feedback on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) provided by the monitor-defibrillator.Main outcome measurePrehospital return of spontaneous circulation after CPR.ResultsBaseline patient and emergency medical service characteristics did not differ between groups. Emergency medical services muted the audible feedback in 14% of cases during the period with feedback. Compared with CPR clusters lacking feedback, clusters assigned to feedback were associated with increased proportion of time in which chest compressions were provided (64% v 66%, cluster-adjusted difference 1.9 (95% CI 0.4 to 3.4)), increased compression depth (38 v 40 mm, adjusted difference 1.6 (0.5 to 2.7)), and decreased proportion of compressions with incomplete release (15% v 10%, adjusted difference -3.4 (-5.2 to -1.5)). However, frequency of prehospital return of spontaneous circulation did not differ according to feedback status (45% v 44%, adjusted difference 0.1% (-4.4% to 4.6%)), nor did the presence of a pulse at hospital arrival (32% v 32%, adjusted difference -0.8 (-4.9 to 3.4)), survival to discharge (12% v 11%, adjusted difference -1.5 (-3.9 to 0.9)), or awake at hospital discharge (10% v 10%, adjusted difference -0.2 (-2.5 to 2.1)).ConclusionsReal-time visual and audible feedback during CPR altered performance to more closely conform with guidelines. However, these changes in CPR performance were not associated with improvements in return of spontaneous circulation or other clinical outcomes. Trial Registration Clinical Trials NCT00539539.

Project description:IntroductionClinical alert systems (CAS) have been used to analyze deviations from hospital standards in the electronic medical record to identify missing documentations and send alerts to the appropriate providers to increase adherence to required elements. To improve compliance, an alert system for documentation of the Immediate Preoperative Assessment (IPOA) was implemented at our institution in August 2018 with the goal of improving documentation compliance rates. We hypothesized that implementation of this alert system would increase the compliance of on-time documentation of the IPOA.MethodsAn initial data query in our institutional data warehouse was made for all patients who had a completed anesthetic during our study period. This date range corresponded to 6 months before and after August 2nd, 2018, the date when the IPOA alert was implemented and the anesthesiology department. The following analyses were performed: testing the proportion of cases compliant with on-time documentation of the IPOA pre- versus post-implementation for the full cohort and among subsets of interest, testing the time when the IPOA was completed relative to anesthesia end, and testing whether time of day of when surgery occurred had an impact on the time when the IPOA was completed relative to the drapes off/IPOA alert sent time. The proportion of compliance for pre- versus post-implementation was tested by Chi-square test.ResultsThrough retrospective chart review of electronic patient records, 47,417 cases matched our inclusion criteria of patients that had a completed anesthetic between February 2nd, 2018 to February 2nd, 2019. In total, we excluded 5132 cases. The compliance rate of IPOA completion increased from 76% to 88% (P < 0.001) before and after the alert implementation date. In the initial month following alert implementation, the compliance rate immediately increased to 83% and stayed in the high 80's for the balance of the study period.ConclusionIn summary, we demonstrate that automated Clinical Alert Systems operating via a single page notification can improve the compliance rate for documentation of key anesthesia events and that this observation is sustained six months after the implementation date. Furthermore, improvement in compliance is highest shorter cases and cases that occur early in the day. This study shows promising results in the use of automatic CAS system alerts to help hospitals meet the Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) and The Joint Commission (TJC) standards.
