Heart failure accounts for more hospital admissions than any other Medicare diagnosis. Research shows that the following care processes decrease morbidity and mortality rates for heart failure patients: Left ventricular systolic function assessment ACEI or ARB prescribed for LVSD (EF <40% or description of moderate/severe dysfunction) Smoking cessation counseling Written discharge instructions regarding activity, diet, follow-up, medications, symptoms worsening, and weight management Our goal is to achieve 100% compliance to these measures.

OPPORTUNITY STATEMENT Concurrent patient care and retrospective chart review indicated an opportunity for improvement in process and outcome for each of the measures.
PLAN Implement a Heart Failure Core Measures program in accordance with JCAHO/CMS guidelines Cycle 1 L A N P PLAN A DO C D STUDY T ACT • Physician and nursing staff education • Develop HF-specific documentation forms • Decrease data variability O ACT S T U D Y DO • HF Task Force formed • Nursing clinical ladder opportunity offered for data collection and entry • Pilot study of core measure performance for DRG 127 STUDY • Current processes not adequately fulfilling project requirements • Lack of house-wide awareness/understanding of HF Core Measures • Data variability identified
PLAN • Capture HF patient population using ICD-9 codes rather than DRG coding P • Dedicated FTEs for the Core Measures initiative • Revise HF Discharge A Progress Note(DPN) C addendum T • Physician and nursing staff education ACT • Attend nurse managers meeting to discuss National Hospital Quality Measures • Place HF packets – including standard order sets, discharge instructions, and discharge progress note addendum – in the ED, EP lab, and all patient care areas that treat the HF population Cycle 2 L A DO N PLAN D DO O STUDY ACT S T U D Y • 100% chart review based on ICD 9 diagnosis codes • Nursing Quality Specialist given responsibility for data collection and entry as well as education • DPN addendum revision to include documentation of ARB as potential contraindication to ACE inhibitor • Multidisciplinary education by in -services and point of service posters/ information STUDY • Improved documentation of D/C instructions • LV assessment documentation peaked to a level of excellence • Decreased data variability • Continuity of required documentation housewide needs improvement
Cycle 3 PLAN • Focus on unit and nurse specific performance L A DO N P PLAN A DO C D • Analyze and provide unit and nurse specific performance data to managers • Provide overall performance data to the HF task force STUDY T ACT • Surgical and non-cardiac unitspecific education • Agency and registry nurse education • Involve cardiac rehabilitation nurses, heart transplant case managers and nurse practitioners, as well as cardiovascular case managers and nurse practitioners O S T U D Y STUDY • High volume cardiac units tend to perform well; however, there is still an opportunity for improvement • Surgical and non-cardiac units need further education regarding the HF measures • Staff nurses perform better than agency nurses
