https://cma.ahrq.gov/cma/welcome.jsp?code=actionallianceseptember Registration Is Open for Our September 17 Webinar: “Advancing Patient Safety Through Diagnostic Excellence” Celebrate World Patient Safety Day with AHRQ’s National Action Alliance by joining us September 17, 12:00-1:00 PM ET, for a webinar on improving patient safety through better diagnosis. Experts from the University of Toronto, Baylor College of Medicine, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, and RAND will share recently developed tools and strategies for reducing diagnostic error. Kelly Smith, PhD, Michael Garron Chair in Patient-Oriented Research, Michael Garron Hospital, and associate professor, Institute of Health Policy, Management, & Evaluation, University of Toronto, will provide an overview of the Toolkit for Engaging Patients to Improve Diagnostic Safety. She will discuss the critical role patients played in the toolkit’s development and feature examples from the pilot test to showcase lessons learned and effective organizational implementation strategies. Andrea Bradford, PhD, associate professor, Baylor College of Medicine, and assistant professor, University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, will introduce the Measure Dx toolkit, designed to help healthcare organizations identify diagnostic safety events and learn from them. She will offer real-world examples from the toolkit’s pilot test to demonstrate the most effective ways organizations can use these tools to measure and improve diagnostic safety. Sangeeta C. Ahluwalia, PhD, senior policy researcher and associate research department director, Behavioral and Policy Sciences Department, RAND, will outline an exciting AHRQ implementation opportunity. She will detail what participation will involve and how organizations can advance diagnostic safety practices within their healthcare settings. This webinar offers an excellent opportunity to gain practical knowledge and actionable strategies for improving patient safety through more accurate diagnosis. Don’t miss the chance to learn from experts and discover how your organization can implement these critical tools. https://www.ahrq.gov/action-alliance/index.html

AHRQ Papers on Diagnostic Safety Topics

AHRQ Papers on Diagnostic Safety Topics: Diagnostic errors occur in all settings of care, contribute to about 10 percent of patient deaths, and are the primary reason for medical liability claims. AHRQ is the lead Federal agency investing in research to improve diagnostic safety and reduce diagnostic error. AHRQ is currently developing a series of papers on different diagnostic safety issues, which will be released over the next year.

eCare Plan: New Standards Support Integrating Data for Person-Centered Care Planning

eCare Plan: The eCare Plan project aims to build care planning tools that will improve how we do research and provide healthcare for people with multiple chronic conditions. These tools include data standards and electronic care plan applications that allow all members of the healthcare team (including patients and caregivers) to see and share critical health data from multiple electronic health records across many healthcare settings. Person-centered data often are not easily shared from one health setting to another, in part because electronic health records (EHR) at different settings don’t “talk” to one another. To address this challenge, AHRQ and the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases developed a Health Level 7 (HL7) implementation guide that provides data standards for the aggregation and sharing of data from different EHRs and settings to support person-centered care planning and care coordination for people at risk for or living with multiple chronic conditions. The HL7 Implementation Guide is part of the eCare Plan project, which aims to build SMART on FHIR electronic care plan applications that allow all members of the healthcare team—including people receiving care and their caregivers—to see and share critical health data.

Diagnostic Safety Supplemental Items for Medical Office SOPS: The SOPS® Diagnostic Safety Supplemental Items for the Medical Office Survey are designed to be used in conjunction with the core Medical Office SOPS to help medical offices assess the extent to which their organizations support the diagnostic process, accurate diagnoses, and communication around diagnoses. The supplemental items may be added to the end of the Medical Office Survey, just before the Background Questions (Section H), to assess content in areas not included in the core questionnaire. The Diagnostic Safety Supplemental Items were developed and pilot tested for providers and staff and ask for their opinions about their medical office’s processes around diagnosis.

The problem with 'never events'. September 4, 2024

https://psnet.ahrq.gov/issue/problem-never-events The problem with 'never events'. Zaslow J, Fortier J, Garber G. BMJ Qual Saf. 2024;33(9):613-616. Never events are serious, but preventable, adverse events that result in serious patient harm or death. This article compares how organizations define never events with respect to preventability, presence and severity of harm, and public accountability. The authors discuss how varying definitions present challenges in conceptualizing and standardizing never event measurement and reporting.

Impact of rounding checklists on the outcomes of patients admitted to ICUs: a systematic review and meta-analysis. September 4, 2024

https://psnet.ahrq.gov/issue/impact-rounding-checklists-outcomes-patients-admitted-icus-systematic-review-and-meta Impact of rounding checklists on the outcomes of patients admitted to ICUs: a systematic review and meta-analysis. MacKinnon KM, Seshadri S, Mailman JF, et al. Crit Care Explor. 2024;6(8):e1140. Although evidence of their effectiveness is somewhat mixed, checklists are ubiquitous in hospital care. This meta-analysis found some improved patient outcomes (e.g., reduced in-hospital and intensive care unit mortality) in facilities using a rounding checklist in the ICU. Providers had a generally positive perception of rounding checklists, particularly around team collaboration. Further randomized studies are needed to increase certainty of evidence.

Hospital commitments to address diagnostic errors: an assessment of 95 US hospitals. September 4, 2024

https://psnet.ahrq.gov/issue/hospital-commitments-address-diagnostic-errors-assessment-95-us-hospitals Hospital commitments to address diagnostic errors: an assessment of 95 US hospitals. Campione Russo A, Tilly J‐L, Kaufman L, et al. J Hosp Med. 2024;Epub Aug 20. In 2021, the Leapfrog Group established the Recognizing Excellence in Diagnosis initiative to prevent patient harm due to diagnostic errors. They subsequently issued the report "Recognizing Excellence in Diagnosis: Recommended Practices for Hospitals," detailing 29 practices to improve diagnostic safety. This article summarizes the extent to which 95 Leapfrog hospitals have implemented the recommended practices. The most frequently implemented practices were ensuring access to medical interpreters, continuous access to radiologists, ensuring staff and patients can report diagnostic errors and concerns, and having a formal process to identify and notify patients when diagnostic errors occur. The practice with the most room for improvement is CEO commitment to diagnostic excellence.
