MPOG/ASPIRE Retreat Update

Session Title: QCDR Roundtable: Quality Measures That Matter –Reporting in 2016Session Description:

Join us for in-depth, small group discussions about the Physician Quality Reporting System, available reporting options for practices and how the ASA QCDR may be a viable option for quality reporting at your practice. Discussion topics will include: •Available PQRS and ASA QCDR Measures •Data Transfer from your system(s) to AQI •Physician Quality Reporting System and Claims-Based Reporting •Membership, Providers and Pricing Practices that are already participating in ASA QCDR will share their stories and take questions.

Session Start/End Time:

Sunday, Oct 25, 2015, 8:00 AM - 9:50 AM

Session Title: Risk Adjustment for Performance Measurement: Friend or Foe?Session Track: Critical Care Medicine (CC)Session Description:

This pro-con will examine the use of risk adjustment for outcome measurement in perioperative care. Using a pro/con format, the session will describe the theoretical basis for risk adjustment and current risk adjustment methodologies. Current implementations of risk adjustment in surgical care, implications for anesthesia quality, and unintended consequences will also be discussed.

Session Start/End Time:

Saturday, Oct 24, 2015, 1:10 PM - 2:10 PM

Sessions at ASA Related to Quality Measurement

Session Title: My Patients Never Have Residual Paralysis in the PACU, or Do They?Session Track: Fundamentals of Anesthesiology (FA)Session Description:

1) Define residual neuromuscular blockade;2) Explain fundamental concepts of recovery and reversal from neuromuscular blockade3) Determine the important risk factors for residual paralysis;4) Apply evidence-based practices related to neuromuscular management that are useful towards decreasing the incidence of residual neuromuscular blockade

Session Start/End Time:

Monday, Oct 26, 2015, 3:30 PM - 4:30 PM

Session Title: How to Effectively Use Quality Data to Represent Your Practice and Improve Patient Outcomes

Session Track: Professional Issues (PI)Session Description: Participants will be shown how to set up recurring reports that allow them to monitor outcomes

and processes in their practice and how to utilize those reports to demonstrate value to stake holders and identify opportunities to improve care. Participants will be shown how to evaluate data using control chart analysis and confidence intervals. Participants will learn how to use demographic risk factors and benchmarks to refine focus of quality improvement initiatives.

Session Start/End Time:

Tuesday, Oct 27, 2015, 7:15 AM - 8:15 AM

Sessions at ASA Related to Quality Measurement

Session Title: Perioperative Glucose Control: Creating a Shared Mental Model and Delivering Quality Patient CareSession Track: Fundamentals of Anesthesiology (FA)

Session Description: This refresher course lecture will provide a brief summary of the scientific evidence underlying adverse outcomes associated with hyperglycemia in diabetics and those without the diagnosis of diabetes. Then we will review the set-up for a hospital system to deliver glycemic control based on American Diabetes Association and American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists guidelines. The creation of cognitive tools for the Perioperative Team to deliver on these guidelines will be emphasized.

Session Start/End Time:

Tuesday, Oct 27, 2015, 11:00 AM -12:00 PM

Session Title: Perioperative Ventilatory Management: Strategies for Preventing Postoperative Pulmonary Complications

Session Track: Fundamentals of Anesthesiology (FA)Session Description: Expanding on our understanding of ventilation strategies used in the critical care setting, recent

work has shown that protective ventilatory management in the perioperative setting can influence subsequent risk for postoperative pulmonary complications (PPCs). This refresher course lecture will review preoperative risk stratification for patients at risk of PPCs, evolution of current ventilation strategies, strategies for avoiding complications of mechanical ventilation, and alternative modes of protective lung ventilation in the perioperative setting.

Session Title: Will Goal-Directed Transfusion Management Improve Quality of Care?Session Track: Fundamentals of Anesthesiology (FA)Session Description: Given the strong evidence collected over the past decade on the risks and potentially severe

consequences of blood transfusions, this clinical forum will evaluate current and new strategies to avoid transfusions through preoperative optimization, minimizing intraoperative blood loss, and transfusion alternatives. Strategies of goal-directed transfusions in the perioperative period will also be examined.

Session Start/End Time:

Wednesday, Oct 28, 2015, 7:45 AM - 8:45 AM

Session Title: Grading the Graders - How Do We Get to Better Performance MeasuresSession Track: Professional Issues (PI)Session Description: This panel will provide an overview of performance measurement, and will describe the strengths

and limitations of process and outcomes measures. Topics will include the regulatory emphasis on outcome measurement and value-based purchasing, the ability of quality measures to truly capture quality, and the use of physician-specific vs. team-based performance measurement. Discussion will also include consideration of future directions in performance measurement.

Session Start/End Time:

QCDR Update

• Meeting at ASA HQ• Quarterly Reports Due• Continue for next year

Roll Call

Measure Feedback

Monitoring Gap Measure• Measure performance in obtaining timely blood pressure readings with a

maximum of 10 minute intervals between blood pressure measurements. • A measurement gap will be identified for cases that have time duration greater

than ten minutes between consecutive blood pressure readings. • The measure will capture NIBP & arterial line measurements and will exclude

artifact. • Measurement period begins with the first blood pressure on arrival into the

operating room until patient out of operating room. • Feedback required for MRI cases• Exclusions: Labor epidurals• Responsible Provider: Provider signed in at 10 minute marks

Forum Summary

• Manual documentation of VS: 6• Device integration in MRI: 5• Explicit feedback to exclude MRI cases: 6• Other feedback and comments of interest• Exclude all cases with manual data entry or paper records• Noted hybrid state in MRI suites (manual and device integration, and vital

signs are captured with variable quality• Collect information on MRI gaps as an opportunity to learn

Hypotension Measure• BP 01 will measure the cumulative time of Mean Arterial Pressure (MAP) <55mmHG. Cases that have a

cumulative time of 20 minutes (1200 seconds) with a MAP< 55mmhg will be included as a failed case. BP 01 will include non-invasive and invasive blood pressure monitoring.

• Inclusions• ≥ 18 years old• All patients requiring anesthesia (general or local)

• Exclusions• Patients <18 years old• Baseline MAP<55mmHG or Major transfusion • Cardiac procedures (CPT codes) • Liver Transplant surgery (CPT codes)• Lung Transplant surgery (CPT codes)

• Responsible Provider • Provider who was signed in for the duration of hypotension

• Success described as:• MAP <55mmHG that does not exceed 20 minute cumulative time parameter or MAP>55mmHG
