TOGETHER
BRINGING THESE WORLDS TOGETHER
Improvement Health IT
IMPROVE QUALITY OF HEALTH AND HEALTHCARE IN THE 21ST CENTURY
THE TWO RONNIES
SOME COWS
COMPUTERS& HEALTH
USA
Computers are useless.
They can only give you answers
Pablo Picasso
Computers really can improve your health, or at least make your doctor less likely to kill you.
The Guardian, Jan 2006
Technology in our lives .....
ADVANCED COMPUTER ASSISTED HEALTHCARE

• Scared ?
• Excited ?
• Bored ?
• Someone else’s job ?
• It’s for the geeks ?
• Nothing to do with healthcare ?
WHAT DOES THIS MAKE YOU THINK ?
About those cows...
WHY DO THE COWS IN THE ISLE OF MAN HAVE BETTER COMPUTERS THAN THE NHS?
Courtesy of Sean Brennan
Helps to monitor udder condition – identifies possible mastitis – sends SMS to farmer !
Data as a byproduct of care
EVERY COW IS INDIVIDUAL – AND HAS IT’S OWN RECORD .... BASED ON ITS ‘COW’ NUMBER !
If we can do it for cows ...
‘QUALITY HEALTHCARE’
?
QUALITY……
http://www.scotland.gov.uk/Resource/Doc/311667/0098354.pdf Scottish Government, May 2010
• No avoidable injury or harm from the healthcare they receive, and that they are cared for in an appropriate, clean and safe environment at all times.
• The most appropriate treatments, interventions, support and services will be provided at the right time to everyone who will benefit, with no wasteful or harmful variation.
• Mutually beneficial partnerships between patients, their families and those delivering healthcare services. Partnerships which respect individual needs and values and which demonstrate compassion, continuity, clear communication and shared decision-making.

2010 ....
• 120,000+ adverse events /month
• >40% avoidable
• Contributing to ~90,000 deaths/year
• $4,400,000,000 additional CMS costs

• 7 UK NHS organisations
• Failures are common (13-19%)
• Real risk to patients – 1 in 7 Rx records contained an error. 20%
of which could have resulted in serious harm
– 1 in 7 outpatient appointment proceeded with incomplete medical record. 1.5% with no record at all.
• Wide variation in reliability– 1 in 5 operations involved wrong, faulty or
missing equipment or staff didn’t know where it was or how to use it.

GUIDELINES PLAY A VITAL ROLE ...

INFORMATION OVERLOAD …
But every time I learn something new, it pushes something old out of my brain ....
17 years to apply 14% of research knowledge to
patient care!

INFORMATION OVERLOAD .....Trainee in cardiac imaging
• 40 papers a day
• 5 days per week
• 11 years to bring up to speed
• Another 82,000 relevant papers
• 8 years reading
• And that’s only cardiac imaging !

Healthcare and IT...
“That it will ever come into general use, notwithstanding its value, is extremely doubtful because its beneficial application requires much time and gives a good bit of trouble, both to the patient and to the practitioner because its hue and character are foreign and opposed to all our habits and associations.”
London Times in 1834, describing the stethoscope
HEALTHCARE AND TECHNOLOGY
ALMOST 10 YEARS AGO !
The committee believes IT must play a central role in the redesign of the healthcare system if a substantial improvement in health care quality is to be achieved during the coming decade”
Crossing the Quality Chasm
2001
‘ Widespread implementation of HIT has been limited by a lack of generalizable
knowledge, about what types of HIT and implementation methods will improve care and manage costs for specific health
organizations.’
Costs and Benefits of Health Information Technology
RAND, 2006
“….very limited rigorous evidence that these technologies actually improve either the quality or safety of healthcare”
• “….despite these substantial gaps in the evidence-base….. we are cautiously optimistic that a number of the eHealth applications ….will result in significant medium to long term benefits to organisational efficiency and patient care”
