Lost to Follow Up Challenges: Data and Systems for Tracking and Surveillance Acknowledgements Anne Jarrett Sherry Spence Roy Ing National Goals Subcommittees and Chairs All members of the data committee, past and present… Why Databases and Data Linkage Tracking Complete care Up front costs in time and money can be considerable but ultimate efficiencies pay off Can assist in reducing loss-to-follow-up Connections across areas Answers to questions Where are there insufficient audiologists by what amount Why Databases and Data Linkage Less likely to miss individuals Linkage facilitates quality-control evaluations Probabilistic linking impossible Straightforward follow-up ensures children in prior system appropriately appear in subsequent systems More complicated: Which children in which later system did not appear in which earlier system? Capture-Recapture would require linkage or electronic format Easier to generate de-identified, yet useful data Comprehensive Item List A comprehensive list of 450+ possible items Minimum data item--data item recommended for all state data systems; the set of data items that are required for follow-up on universal newborn hearing screening and for full reporting on national EHDI goals. Core data item--data item recommended for complete state-level data system, including basic data needed for program evaluation. Enhanced data item--additional data item useful for clinicians, enhanced tracking, or research. Recent Activities Focus on items required for National Goals and Objectives Comprehensive Item List as a framework Narrow down to items specifically required to address National Goals and Objectives Include items useful for linkage Include a small set of additional key fields Data Committee Activities Goals and Objectives Sub-Committees Subcommittees examined each Goal It was felt that some goals were not relevant for tracking and surveillance system “1.5 Financial barriers. Each state will develop a system to reduce/eliminate financial barriers to newborn hearing screening.” Lead to Content of Goals and Objectives Chart Contents of Goals and Objectives Last Updated 2/20/2005 Data items needed for a tracking and surveillance system Infant Goal 1 Screening Goal 2 Outcome Goal 3 EI Goal 4 Acquired, Late Onset Goal 5 Medical Home Goal 6 Tracking Goal 7 Program Evaluation 1.1.a,d 1.3.a 1.4 Data Event Parent Site 1.1.e 1.3.b, c 1.1 Referral Data items NOT needed for tracking and surveillance system Information Parent Site Collab. 1.7.a 2.1.a-e 2.4 3.1 3.2.a,d,e 3.3.d 3.9.b 3.9.d 3.1 3.10 Information Procedures Dissemination Guidelines Event Results Resources 1.1.b 1.5 1.6 1.2 1.6 1.5 1.9 2.2 2.7 2.3 2.7 3.2.b 3.3.a 3.3.b 3.4 3.3.c 3.5 3.4 3.8 3.6 3.9.a 3.9.c Training Deleted 1.1.c 1.7.b 1.8 2.5 2.6 2.1.f,g 3.7 3.2.c 5.4.c 5.6 4.1 4.2 4.3 5.2 5.1.a,b 6.4 6.6 6.8 7.4.b,c,e 5.5.b 6.7 5.4.a,b 6.8 5.3 6.5 7.3 7.1 7.2 6.9 5.5.a 6.1 6.2 6.3 6.9 7.4.a 7.4.d Contents of Goals and Objectives Last Updated 2/20/2005 Data items needed for a tracking and surveillance system Infant Goal 1 Screening Goal 2 Outcome Goal 3 EI Goal 4 Acquired, Late Onset Goal 5 Medical Home Goal 6 Tracking Goal 7 Program Evaluation 1.1.a,d 1.3.a 1.4 Data Event Parent Site 1.1.e 1.3.b, c 1.1 Referral Data items NOT needed for tracking and surveillance system Information Parent Site Collab. 1.7.a 2.1.a-e 2.4 3.1 3.2.a,d,e 3.3.d 3.9.b 3.9.d 3.1 3.10 Information Procedures Dissemination Guidelines Event Results Resources 1.1.b 1.5 1.6 1.2 1.6 1.5 1.9 2.2 2.7 2.3 2.7 3.2.b 3.3.a 3.3.b 3.4 3.3.c 3.5 3.4 3.8 3.6 3.9.a 3.9.c Training Deleted 1.1.c 1.7.b 1.8 2.5 2.6 2.1.f,g 3.7 3.2.c 5.4.c 5.6 4.1 4.2 4.3 5.2 5.1.a,b 6.4 6.6 6.8 7.4.b,c,e 5.5.b 6.7 5.4.a,b 6.8 5.3 6.5 7.3 7.1 7.2 6.9 5.5.a 6.1 6.2 6.3 6.9 7.4.a 7.4.d Data Committee Activities Subcommittees examined each Goal Identify potential relevant data items Identify measurement/reliability issues Highlight changes and recommended additions to the wording of the objectives and performance indicators from the original National Goals For example… Data Committee Activities 3.1.a. Number and percent of infants with hearing loss who received appropriate medical services before 6 months of age from primary care, otolaryngologists, ophthalmologists, and geneticists/genetic counselors. Data Committee Activities 3.1.a.
