Title: Patient Safety Case Conference Modified M


1
Patient Safety Case Conference/Modified MM
Faculty Development
  • John Gosbee
  • Ed Dunn
  • Craig Renner
  • Linda Williams
  • John.Gosbee_at_med.va.gov www.patientsafety.gov

2
Location in our VA NCPS Curriculum Toolkit
  • Content
  • Patient Safety Introduction
  • Human Factors Engineering
  • Etc
  • Instructor Preparation
  • Swift and Long Term Trust
  • Selling the Curriculum
  • Etc
  • Alternative Education Formats
  • Pt Safety on Rounds (Modulettes)
  • Doc-U-Drama
  • Patient Safety Case Conference (MM)
  • Etc

3
Objectives Modified Case Conferences
  • Overview of formats that have promise
  • Introduction to tools (poster and handouts)
  • Key instructor skills
  • Case selection
  • Preparation
  • Recovery and redirection

4
Where is this being done?
  • University of Michigan (many times/year)
  • Senior Resident Morning report Sessions
  • Facilitators chief med residents and a faculty
    member
  • Root causes and countermeasures determined
  • Cleveland VA (many times/year)
  • Similar to Univ of Michigan
  • Modified MM for internal medicine
  • Pittsburgh VA and University of Pittsburgh
  • Similar to Cleveland, but for Critical Care
    Medicine
  • Often times with more than one case aggregated

5
Key Preparation
  • Swift Trust
  • Tell your stories first
  • Avoid saying bad luck or the only time I made
    and error
  • Ask what happened?, not who did it?
  • Long-term Trust
  • Understand how to protect resident
  • Make sure you know your VA or university rules
  • Make a change, no matter how small, after each
    case

6
Change MM Conferences?
  • Similar to changing/enhancing case conferences
  • Differences between medical and surgical MMs
  • Aggregation of more than one type of case
  • Focus on type of vulnerability, not persons
  • Forces teacher and learner to sharpen their
    point

7
Key Reading and Preparation
  • RCA Triage Booklet and Trainer CD
  • Tool to lower hindsight bias, etc
  • Proven to work
  • More involved, but a great resource
  • Dekker S. The Field Guide to Human Error
    Investigation. Burlington, VT Ashgate. 2002.

8
Key Web Sites
  • To gather ideas for flow and direction
  • Web MM (sponsored by AHRQ)
  • www.webmm.ahrq.gov

9
Key Web Sites
  • To generate ideas for novel remedies
  • www.mistakeproofing.com

10
Key Web Sites
  • www.baddesigns.com
  • Some medical examples with pictures

11
Case Selection
  • Presenter
  • They need to Knows a lot about system detail
    (communication, room layout, etc)
  • You need to brief them ahead of time (even if 5
    min)
  • Discussant/Facilitator
  • Knows something about the systems issues..
  • Or, works/preps with a patient safety colleague

12
Balance with Professionalism

Morbidity Mortality ConferenceA Forum for
Improving Patient Safety?
15
M M Conference Historical Roots
  • Ernest Codman End Results Idea, early 20th
    cent.
  • End Result Card annual update (Sx, Dx, Rx plan,
    complications)
  • ACS Standards Committee 1916
  • Intense opposition from physicians
  • Anesthesia Mortality Committee 1935
    Philadelphia
  • Multi-institutional review group
  • Precursor to M M share knowledge about
    fatalities from anesthesia and other interesting
    anesthetic situations.
  • Anesthesia Study Commission 1940
  • Expanded to include non-fatal complications
  • Included all physicians, residents, and interns

16
Historical tensions inherent in the roots of the
M M conference remain relevant today Need for
Learningv.Fear of Incrimination
17
Codmans concept Improve medical practice by
the examination of experience
18
Cross-sectional Study of MM conferences in 4
hospitals
  • Prospective survey of 332 MM conferences in 4
    hospitals (UCSF MC, SF VAMC, SF Gen. Hospital,
    Stanford Univ. MC) 7/2000 to 4/2001
  • Internal Medicine 100
  • Surgery - 232
  • Outcome measure frequency of presentation of
    adverse events, discussion/analysis of patient
    safety issues
  • Study conducted by trained physician observors

Pierluissi, R et al. Discussion of Medical
Errors in Morbidity and Mortality Conferences.
JAMA 2003 290 2838-42.

Results of MM Survey
Pierluissi et al
20
MM Study Conclusions
  • Key cultural differences Medicine v. Surgery
  • Surgery present and discuss adverse events but
    overemphasize role of individual and
    underemphasize role of systems in posing
    solutions
  • Medicine infreq present adverse events MM more
    an academic/didactic exercise overemphasize role
    of individual
  • Similarities between Medicine Surgery
  • conference leaders fail to model error
    acknowledgment and link discussion to patient
    safety education and local improvement work
  • Both missed opportunities for learning to improve
    patient safety

Pierluissi et al
21
Orlander reported that 80 of 295 responding
Internal Medicine program directors believe that
M M cases were most often selected because of
adverse events or suspected error.(37 in
Pierluissis data)

MM Conference Forum for Educational Change
  • Only time of the week staff and residents
    assemble in formal interactive session
  • Dept clinical knowledge on display debunk
    folklore
  • Develops organization and presentation skills
  • Venue for testing ideas and educational
    techniques
  • Opportunity for integrating systems thinking to
    PC
  • Vehicle to implement small team approach to PC
    same skills for hand-offs, cross coverage,
    sign-outs
  • No need for high level funding
  • Medical student recruitment tool
  • Year-long curriculum for entire department
  • Enhanced educational value counters restricted
    work hours

24
M M Matrix
  • Report events to create a story of what
    occurred
  • Report events in a manner that seeks the meaning
    of the story
  • Develop recommendations for improvement
  • Implement lessons learned
  • Track the changes and gauge their effect

Gordon, LA Can Cedars-Sinais M M Matrix save
surgical education? Bulletin of ACS, Vol. 89,
No. 6, June 2004 Need RCA to bridge 2 and 3
25
Next
  • Walkthrough a guide book and a documentation card
    for learners (20 min)
  • Linda Williams
  • Small group exercise (30 min)

26
Patient Safety Case Conference
Step 1
From Who done it?
To What caused it?
27
Patient Safety Case Conference
Step 2
  • 65 y.o. - mild chest pain
  • R/o MI tests inconclusive
  • Transferred via ambulance - increased distress
    unstable angina, possible MI,
    bypass

Noisy environment
Travel distance
New equipment
Training required?
Monitor malfunction?
28
Patient Safety Case Conference
Step 3
29

Assignment Conduct a Patient Safety Case
Conference
Comments and questions will take the discussion
in a direction that will reveal systems issues.
