The Principles Of Shared Baselines
• Select a high priority care process
• Generate an evidence-based best practice guideline
• Blend the guideline into the flow of clinical work
• Use the guideline as a shared baseline with clinicians free to vary based on individual patient needs
• Measure, learn from and (over time)
• Eliminate variation arising from the professional
• Retain variation arising from patients

Multi-Disciplinary Colon Surgery (MDCS) Background
• Enhanced recovery after colon surgery has not been widely adopted in the United States and Europe despite evidence that postoperative complications and hospital length of stay are decreased.
![Page 5: Integrated Care In Action Surgery Clinical Program](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814bfe550346895db8fe9b/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Objective
• Evaluate the introduction of a comprehensive care process for an enhanced recovery after colon surgery care process in 8 Intermountain Healthcare community hospitals.
![Page 6: Integrated Care In Action Surgery Clinical Program](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814bfe550346895db8fe9b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Design
• Quality improvement rather than cost containment was the primary focus.
• Use of LOS and cost data as quality metrics to assess results of the intended improvement process are well substantiated in the literature.
• Elements comprising an MDCS care process are not uniformly accepted.
![Page 7: Integrated Care In Action Surgery Clinical Program](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814bfe550346895db8fe9b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Design
• Common MDCS elements include:• patient education • correct peri-operative fluid management • optimal pain control with limited opioids • thoracic epidural blockade • early postoperative feeding • aggressive patient ambulation • avoiding use of abdominal drains and
nasogastric tubes.

Implementation
• A central committee composed of general surgeons, colorectal surgeons, operations leaders and data experts reviewed the evidence supporting MDCS.
• The committee developed a comprehensive MDCS care process with help from nursing, physical therapy, and the pain and medical nutrition services.

Implementation
• In each hospital, an objective review of MDCS literature was presented to surgeons and anesthesiologists in combination with system-wide, hospital, and surgeon-specific baseline data.
• System-wide and hospital-based leadership teams led by surgeons were essential in implementing the complex MDCS care process.

Implementation
• An electronic self populating dashboard was created from the EDW.• Significant resources
• A postoperative order set was designed to incorporate the essential elements of MDCS.• Incorporating process into the workflow
• A document summarizing the care process was added to each patient’s chart.• Education for patients, nursing staff, and
physicians.

Implementation
• From inception of the MDCS hypothesis to beginning of implementation took 18 months.
![Page 13: Integrated Care In Action Surgery Clinical Program](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56814bfe550346895db8fe9b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Continuous Process Improvement
• The electronic dashboard made MDCS performance metrics immediately available to physicians and operations leaders and included: • patient demographic • severity of illness (SOI) • clinical and financial outcomes• ambulation, diets, bowel activity, etc.• LOS, POD, cost

Surgeon Education and Control
• Surgeons had the option of enrolling or not enrolling patients in MDCS.
• It was expected that this may lead to some degree of selection bias that might confound direct comparison between enrolled and non-enrolled patients; therefore the study population included enrolled and not enrolled patients and was compared to a historical control.

Conclusions
• MDCS was successfully introduced into 8 of the Intermountain Healthcare network of hospitals as indicated by:• increasing enrollment rates over time • decreasing LOS and POD from the
baseline period to the study period

Current Status and Next Steps
• Continuing education on patient enrollment
• Revisiting areas of variation and changing as needed
• Continued turnaround of data to physicians and clinical team
