Outline
• What is the problem• What was the approach• What is the solution
![Page 4: E8 Clare Bannon - Improving Post-Renal Transplant Services](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/5595a75c1a28ab90168b4826/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Background
• Exceptional Distribution Renal
Transplants– Health Canada Regulations– Informed Consent• Patients at increased risk of infectious disease
transmission
– Inconsistent Communication• Organ Retrieval • Different Health Care providers involved• How is pre-transplant information communicated to
post transplant team?

Current State
• No Clear of systemic process to ensure appropriate follow-up occurred
• Communication/Documentation– Donor procurement-in-patient chart-post
transplant clinic-regional transplant centre
• Form was not 3-hole punched

Approach
LEAN process used to document current state, identify problems, propose and implement solutions
![Page 7: E8 Clare Bannon - Improving Post-Renal Transplant Services](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042614/5595a75c1a28ab90168b4826/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Solution
• Standard Operating Procedure was developed and a process implemented
• Stakeholders involved– Transplant Clinical Nurse Leaders, BC Transplant
Organ Donation and Hospital Development (ODHD) Coordinator, BC Transplant Quality Assurance specialist, in-patient clinical leaders, post-transplant care team, Infectious Disease leaders (BCCDC) and SPH renal medical director

Solution
• Created a process that supports transfer of all pertinent information – Pre, peri-, and post transplant areas (including
regional clinics

Exceptional Kidney Distribution Process

Solution
• Safety Checks Established– BC Transplant faxes ED form to Post-Transplant as
a cross-check to ensure no cases are missed– If patient transfers to another clinic, the ED status
is now included on the transfer form– Yearly audit done for all patients to ensure
screening blood work has been completed

Results/Expected Results
• Expected results are that 100% of patients will have appropriate follow up in the post transplant period at 4, & 8 weeks, 6 months and 1 year
• Audit completed in April 2012 from ED data between December 2007-April 2012 demonstrated 100% of the patients (63) had appropriate follow up

Sustaining the Gains
• Ongoing tracking at each patient encounter to ensure follow up is completed
• Applying the patient transfer from to flag other patient safety issues for follow up at points of transition of transplant patient
