Slide 16: Asthma Comparative Effectiveness (ACE): Using SDM: Intervention at a Glance</h3>
<p><span><img alt="Text Description is below the image." border="0" height="300" src="Slide16.jpg" title="Text Description is below the image." width="400" /></span></p>
<p><strong>Evidence Being Disseminated</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>NHLBI guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of Asthma and Shared Treatment Decision Making Improves Adherence and Outcomes in Poorly Controlled Asthma. <em>Am J Respir Crit Care Med</em>. March 15, 2010.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Primary Aim</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>To adapt, implement, and evaluate a "Shared Decision Making Toolkit" in 6 primary care hospital-based practices serving a vulnerable Medicare population.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Intervention Description</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>A facilitator-led approach was used to partner with providers, staff and train health coaches to adopt and implement the shared decision making toolkit; and assisted health coaches to convene clinics for patients.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Lead Implementers</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Facilitators train practice implementation team during a participatory "rollout" process adapted to culture at each practice. Typical implementers are physician champions and practice managers.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>External Supports</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Physicians and practices used asthma SDM clinic for American Board of Family Medicine Maintenance of Certification.</li>
<li>SDM was used to help 1 practice get PCMH level III certification.</li>

<h3>
Slide 17: Asthma Comparative Effectiveness (ACE): Using SDM</h3>
<p><span><img alt="Text Description is below the image." border="0" height="300" src="Slide17.jpg" title="Text Description is below the image." width="400" /></span></p>
<p><strong>Achievements</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>258 English &amp; Spanish, Adult, and Pediatric patients participated in 358 SDM Half-Day Clinic Visits.</li>

<li>86% of patients reported the asthma treatment decision was shared between the patient and provider.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Sustainability</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>4 of 6 original practices still hold regular SDM half day clinics and all 6 practices still use SDM toolkit components during asthma treatment planning.</li>
<li>Results from this project were used to successfully obtain PCORI funding for state-wide dissemination of SDM across 30 sites.</li>
<li>Partnership with Medicaid has enabled the toolkit to be incorporated in materials distributed to 278 practices across NC.</li>

<p><strong>Evidence Being Disseminated</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>8 processes of care from the National Kidney Foundation Kidney Disease Outcomes Quality Initiative Guidelines: 1) making and documenting the diagnosis, 2) ordering appropriate tests based upon severity of disease, 3) discontinuing potentially harmful medications, 4) starting potentially beneficial medications, 5) managing diabetes and cardiovascular disease risk factors, 6) educating patients about vein preservation, 7) giving appropriate immunizations, and 8) referring patients with advanced disease.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Primary Aim</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>To determine whether networks could increase dissemination, implementation, and diffusion of evidence-based treatment guidelines for chronic kidney disease (CKD) by leveraging early adopter practices.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Intervention Description</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Wave I: Practices from 4 PBRNs received baseline and periodic performance feedback, academic detailing, and <strong>weekly</strong> practice facilitation for 6 months.</li>
<li>Wave II: Wave I practices + 2 additional practices received similar performance feedback and academic detailing, monthly practice facilitation, and participated in 6 monthly <strong>"local" learning collaboratives (LLCs)</strong> led by Wave I clinicians.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Lead Implementers</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Physicians in the practices and Practice Facilitators provided by the PBRNs.</li>
</ul>

<p><span><img alt="Text Description is below the image." border="0" height="300" src="Slide20.jpg" title="Text Description is below the image." width="400" /></span></p>
<p><strong>Achievements</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Wave I: 711 patients, 31 of 32 practices:
<ul>
<li>Increased use of angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors or angiotensin receptor blockers (ACEIs/ARBs), discontinuation of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), testing for anemia, and testing and/or treatment for vitamin D deficiency.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Wave II: 1179 patients, 58 of 62 practices enrolled:
<ul>
<li>Also increased use of ACEIs/ARBs and testing and/or treatment of vitamin D deficiency.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Sustainability</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Newly implemented processes were typically accompanied by the creation of templates, order sets, and other modifications to the electronic health records.</li>
<li>Increased awareness of the importance of eGFR (an estimated value derived from a measured serum creatinine and population means for age and gender) created by the project
<ul>
<li>Automatic calculation of eGFR by labs used by participating practices prior to or as a result of the project.</li>

<p><strong>Evidence Being Disseminated</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Prevention methods for 3 common infections.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Primary Aim</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Prevention methods for 3 common infections.</li>
<li>To implement and evaluate the impact of a patient safety program in 11 of cardiac surgery operating rooms (OR), 8 intensive care units (ICU), 9 inpatient units, and 3 universal bed units on:
<ul>
<li>Healthcare-associated infection (HAI) rates.</li>
<li>Patient safety culture, cross-unit teamwork, and transitions of care.</li>
<li>Comparison to passive audit and feedback.</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Intervention Description</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Evidenced-based prevention toolkits for surgical site infections (SSI), central line-associated bloodstream infections (CLABSI) and ventilator-associated pneumonia or events (VAP/VAE) plus the Comprehensive Unit-based Safety Program (CUSP).</li>
<li>Standardizing technical components of the work (evidence summaries and measures), while encouraging local innovation in the adaptive components (implementation and culture change).</li>
</ul>

<p><strong>Achievements</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Development and implementation of SSI; CLABSI; and VAP/VAE prevention bundles and CUSP in 11 hospitals.</li>
<li>Preliminary data (March 2014) show median CLABSI rates decreased to 0.00 per 1,000 line-days (baseline: 1.52, 1.23); median VAP rates sustained at 0.00 per 1,000 vent-days (baseline: 0.00); downward trend observed in median SSI rates but some variation exists.</li>
<li>Culture regarding leadership improved; scores on open communication and feedback about errors were lower (1 yr. post-implementation vs. baseline).</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Sustainability</strong> (Note: this project ended in July 2014; sustainability data not yet available)</p>
<ul>
<li>Embed: Make policies and procedures, train new people, walk the process.</li>
<li>Expand: Pass it on to other units, identify and address the next challenge.</li>
