Through collaborative use of improvement science methods, reduce preterm births and improve outcomes of preterm newborns in Ohio as quickly as possible. (March 2007) Key features: Ø Focus on population perinatal health = all pregnancies Ø Collaboration between obstetrics and pediatrics Ø Evidence based decision making Ø Collaboration with state policy makers www. OPQC. net
Our Impact on Ohio • 47% of all births occurred in OPQC hospitals • 64% of preterm births (<37 weeks) occurred in OPQC hospitals • 82% of births <34 weeks (preterm excluding late preterm) occurred in OPQC hospitals • 80% of births 30 -33 weeks occurred in OPQC hospitals and were likely influenced by our OPQC NICU infection interventions • 87% of births 22 -29 weeks occurred in OPQC hospitals (target of NICU infection project)
What have we accomplished? • Focus on population health ü 50% of births; 80% of infants 22 -29 weeks ü All Level 3 ü Target improved care and improved access to care • Focus on continuum of care ü Prenatal (obstetrics) and neonatal care and decisions • Collaborations between health care and public health ü Vital Statistics and Medicaid ü HB 197 • National attention ü MOD, VON State Leaders Group, AAP neonatal quality measures group, CMS HAI research agenda • Improved care ü ~1000 women per year move from 36 -37 weeks to term ü better care of infants with catheters …. . a statewide improvement collaborative……

Interventions Goal: Assure that all initiation of labor or caesarean sections on women who are not in labor occur only when obstetrically or medically indicated Key Drivers Project Aim: In one year, reduce by 60%, the number of women in Ohio of 36. 1 to 38. 6 weeks gestation for whom initiation of labor or caesarean section is done in absence of appropriate medical or obstetric indication (Scheduled delivery) Awareness of risks & expected benefit of near-term delivery by patients and consumers Dating criteria: optimal estimation of gestational age Hospital and physician practice policies that facilitate ACOG criteria Awareness of risks & expected benefit of nearterm delivery by clinician Culture of safety and improvement Inform consumers of risk/benefits of deliveries < 39 weeks Communicate to patient/clinic/hospital ultrasound results Promote need for early dating to practitioners and consumers Public awareness campaign Promote need for early dating to practitioners and consumers Promote sonography < 20 weeks to establish dates Document criteria used to establish EDC Appropriate use of fetal maturity testing Empower nurses /schedulers to require dating criteria Identify a specific contact for authorization dispute re: dating Provide patient with hard copy results of ultrasound Empower nurses /schedulers to require dating criteria Document rationale and risk/benefit for scheduled deliveries at 36. 1 to 38. 6 weeks gestation Document discussion with patient about the above Both patient and MD sign consent statement for scheduled delivery between 36. 1 and 38. 6 weeks Physician awareness campaign: what are the reason(s) for scheduled delivery? Maximize access to Delivery and OR for optimal scheduling Facilitate scheduling policies that respect ACOG criteria Prenatal caregivers receive feedback from postnatal caregivers about neonatal outcomes of scheduled deliveries Ensure complete and accurate handoffs Ob/OB and Ob/Peds Document discussion with patient about risk/benefits of near-term delivery Promote need for early dating to practitioners and consumers Continuous monitoring of data & discussion of this effort in staff/division meetings. Project outcomes posted on units and websites. Develop ways to include staff and physician input about communications and handoffs Connect with organizational initiatives on safety and use existing approaches as possible Empower nurses /schedulers to require dating criteria
OPQC OB Initiative: Our hand collected data…OPQC hospitals
OPQC OB Initiative: Are we making a difference? Birth Certificate Data for OPQC Hospitals
How we collaborate… • • • Monthly review of the data Monthly action period calls Site visits 1: 1 coaching as needed Use of the listserv and other communication methods
Key Changes=Improvement • 16 teams have a written scheduled delivery policy that outlines acceptable reasons to delivery before 39 weeks • We created a consumer flyer to educate on our AIM and it was translated into 6 languages • 19 teams have a formal peer review process requiring a physician to adequately explain why he/she delivered before 39 weeks • 3 hospitals have actively reached out to the private practice physicians groups to improve communication processes for scheduling • 7 teams changed their scheduling workflow, i. e. dedicated fax machines, mitigation processes for questionable appointments, etc… • All of the teams have, at minimum, adopted a procedural standard for scheduling inductions
Our Collaborative Makes an Impact • OPQC wins the SMFM “Award of Research Excellence” in 2010 and the March 2010 issue of JCOG detailed this work • 2009, we were recognized as a best practice for “Improving the Grade” by the National Office of the March of Dimes • We have received a March of Dimes grant to disseminate this work to non-OPQC hospitals in 2010 • We are presenting our NICU project at PAS next week
Future Projects • Prematurity related • Variation in current practice • Existing practice guideline • Measurable outcome • Enthusiasm by participants • • • Antenatal Steroids Care of P-PROM Progesterone Late Preterm 34 -36 Regionalization Breast Feeding Mg. SO 4 prophylaxis Smoking Substance Abuse …. . a statewide improvement collaborative……
What we are thinking about: How does OPQC include more Ohio perinatal providers? 1. How do we capture lessons learned? 2. Scheduled deliveries at the other 101 Ohio maternity hospitals? 3. NICU-associated infections in other Ohio NICUs or other NICU populations? …. . a statewide improvement collaborative……
We continue to align our work with regulations: Ohio House Bill 197 • • • Scheduled Births Before 39 Weeks Antenatal Steroids Appropriate Birth Site for VLBW Infants Cesarean Birth Rate in 1 st – Time Mothers Others …. . a statewide improvement collaborative……
