Using the BASHH National Audits- 1
• Managed the collection of data for my clinic for the BASHH 07 Audit on Management of Chlamydia Infection … processed through clinical governance
• Produced a data set of performance measures for our clinic
• Compared our performance against other clinics in the Region, and against the BASHH national guideline for chlamydial management. – only 40% of cases received written information about
chlamydia– 60% follow-up of cases in clinics …

Using the BASHH National Audits- 2
• Interventions: – changed from routine follow-up of cases
in clinic to telephone follow-up – led a process that found our health
advisers/nurses dedicated time for telephone follow-up of chlamydial cases
– produced a new proforma in our clinic, including prompts for scheduling follow-up and providing written information …

Using the BASHH National Audits- 3
• Led re-audit of chlamydia management, using the same questions from the BASHH chlamydia audit
• Measured the effect of the interventions introduced aimed at improving practice and demonstrated significant improvement:– … reduced follow-up in clinics from 60% to 20%,
freeing up time in clinics to see more patients – … increased our overall follow-up rate from 70% to
85%, by switching to telephone follow-up – … 60% of cases are now recorded as having
received written information

Development of BASHH national audits
• Moving towards shorter, higher impact audits and re-audits
• Based partly on new BASHH standards for STI services (in development)
• Linked to revalidation/recertification
