Solutions for Patient Safety

Definition
A Patient Safety Solution is any system
design or intervention that has demonstrated
the ability to prevent or mitigate patient harm
stemming from the processes of health care.
http://www.high5s.org
12
Confusing drug names is one of the most common causes of
medication errors and is a worldwide concern. With tens of
thousands of drugs currently on the market, the potential for error
created by confusing brand or generic drug names and
packaging is significant. The recommendations focus on using
protocols to reduce risks and ensuring prescription legibility or the
http://www.high5s.org
use of preprinted orders or electronic prescribing.
13
The widespread and continuing failures to correctly identify patients often
leads to medication, transfusion and testing errors; wrong person
procedures; and the discharge of infants to the wrong families. The
recommendations place emphasis on methods for verifying patient
identity, including patient involvement in this process; standardization of
identification methods across hospitals in a health care system; and
patient participation in this confirmation; and use of protocols for
14
distinguishing the identity of patients withhttp://www.high5s.org
the same name.
Gaps in hand-over (or hand-off) communication between patient care
units, and between and among care teams, can cause serious
breakdowns in the continuity of care, inappropriate treatment, and
potential harm for the patient. The recommendations for improving patient
hand-overs include using protocols for communicating critical information;
providing opportunities for practitioners to ask and resolve questions
during the hand-over; and involving patients and families in the hand-over
http://www.high5s.org 15
process.
Considered totally preventable, cases of wrong procedure or wrong site
surgery are largely the result of miscommunication and unavailable, or
incorrect, information. A major contributing factor to these types of errors
is the lack of a standardized preoperative process. The
recommendations to prevent these types of errors rely on the conduct of
a preoperative verification process; marking of the operative site by the
practitioner who will do the procedure; and having the team involved in
the procedure take a “time out” immediately before starting the
http://www.high5s.org
procedure to confirm patient identity, procedure,
and operative site. 16
While all drugs, biologics, vaccines and contrast media have a
defined risk profile, concentrated electrolyte solutions that are used
for injection are especially dangerous. The recommendations
address standardization of the dosing, units of measure and
terminology; and prevention of mix-ups of specific concentrated
electrolyte solutions. http://www.high5s.org 17
Medication errors occur most commonly at transitions. Medication
reconciliation is a process designed to prevent medication errors at patient
transition points. The recommendations address creation of the most
complete and accurate list of all medications the patient is currently taking—
also called the “home” medication list; comparison of the list against the
admission, transfer and/or discharge orders when writing medication orders;
and communication of the list to the next provider of care whenever the
http://www.high5s.org 18
patient is transferred or discharged.
The design of tubing, catheters, and syringes currently in use is
such that it is possible to inadvertently cause patient harm through
connecting the wrong syringes and tubing and then delivering
medication or fluids through an unintended wrong route. The
recommendations address the need for meticulous attention to
detail when administering medications and feedings (i.e., the right
route of administration), and when connecting devices to patients
http://www.high5s.org
(i.e., using the right connection/tubing).
19
One of the biggest global concerns is the spread of Human
Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV), the Hepatitis B Virus (HBV), and the
Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) because of the reuse of injection
needles. The recommendations address the need for prohibitions on
the reuse of needles at health care facilities; periodic training of
practitioners and other health care workers regarding infection control
principles; education of patients and families regarding transmission of
20
blood borne pathogens; and safe needle http://www.high5s.org
disposal practices.
It is estimated that at any point in time more than 1.4 million people
worldwide are suffering from infections acquired in hospitals. Effective
hand hygiene is the primary preventive measure for avoiding this
problem. The recommendations address the promotion of hand
hygiene adherence as a health care facility priority, requiring
leadership and administrative support and financial resources, as well
http://www.high5s.org
as adopting the WHO Guidelines on Hand Hygiene
in Health Care. 21
The Standardized Project Elements
SOPs
• The critical steps
Evaluation Plan
• Performance measures
• Event analysis approach
• On-site evaluation of SOP implementation
• Culture survey
http://www.high5s.org
22
Standard Operating Protocol
Defined
A Standard Operating Protocol (SOP) is a set
of instructions for implementing a defined
process in a consistent and measurable
manner by multiple users.
http://www.high5s.org
23
Correct Site Surgery
Problem: Wrong site, wrong procedure, wrong person
surgery
Scope of SOP: All cases performed in the in-patient
operating rooms
Solution:
• Extended preoperative verification process
• Surgical site marking
• Final “time out” before incision
http://www.high5s.org
24
Relationship between the Correct Site Surgery
SOP and the WHO Surgical Safety Checklist
Correct site surgery SOP
Surgical Safety Checklist
• Focus on correct person,
procedure, site
• Focus on all major surgical
risks
• Seeks uniform compliance
with standardized protocol
• Permits modification of
process per local practice
• Includes comprehensive preop verification process
• Limited (day-of-surgery)
pre-op check
• Does not include “Sign-out”
• Includes “Sign-out”
• Available only to High 5s’
participating hospitals
• Available to all hospitals
wishing to use it
Where the initiatives overlap, the expectations are
consistent. Both can be implemented without conflict.

25
Relationship between the SOP and the WHO
Checklist
http://www.high5s.org
26
Medication Reconciliation
Problem: Miscommunications about patient
medications among caregivers
Scope of SOP: Patients ≥ 65 admitted through the
Emergency Department to in-patient units
Solution:
• “Best possible medication history” on admission
• Compare with admission orders
• Reconcile discrepancies
• Repeat process at all patient care transitions
across the care continuum
http://www.high5s.org
27
Concentrated Injectable
Medicines
Problem: Inadvertent injection of undiluted concentrated
medicines
Scope of SOP:
• Concentrated potassium chloride solution
• Sodium heparin >1000 units/milliliter
• Injectable morphine preparations
Solution:
• Minimize storage/preparation of concentrates on clinical
units
• Encourage ready-to-use products
• Standardize procedure if concentrated medicines must be
used on clinical units
http://www.high5s.org
28
Evaluation Plan
• Identify and apply process and outcome
measures for each Protocol
• Evaluate Protocol implementation and, over
time, modify Protocols as appropriate
• Develop and apply an Event Analysis
Framework, including the identification and
use of Protocol-specific trigger events
• Conduct baseline and periodic organization
culture surveys
http://www.high5s.org
29
SOP Implementation Evaluation
• Determine whether an SOP can be implemented
as it was designed to be implemented
• Determine whether the SOPs appear to be
effective in preventing the targeted adverse events
• Determine the potential portability of the SOPs
http://www.high5s.org
30
Project Challenges
• Standardization across diverse countries
• Language barriers
• Competition with existing in-country project
priorities
• Concerns about control of project results
• Project Launch
http://www.high5s.org
31
