IMPACT OF MONITORING QUALITY INDICATORS ON TRANSFUSION SERVICES

WE’VE HAD A ROMANCE WITH QUALITY!
• 1960s – all about ‘Quality Control’ (QC)
• 1970s and 1980s - this relationship bloomed into
‘Proficiency Testing’ (PT) and ‘Quality Assurance’ (QA).
• 1990s- in-road of Quality Management System (QMS) into TM.
• NOW - QMS has become a very important means for achieving
quality in TM. Tool of QMS - Quality indicators
• QIs - measurable, objective indicators of efficiency of the QMS
QIs – WHAT ARE THEY?
• Quantitative proof of a qualitative activity
• Many QIs for heathcare quality – few for TM
• 2010 - International Society of Blood Transfusion (ISBT)
• instituted its Working Party on Quality Management
(WPQM) 36 QIs defined
• To provide robust and valid quality indicators to
monitor quality of key processes and outcomes in TM
practice, globally.
Vuk T. Quality indicators in blood establishments:ISBT WBQM; Transfusion Today 2013;96:10-11.
HOW DO WE DEVELOP A QI?Objective What are we trying to measure?
Methodology 1. How do we capture the data2. Who will / what to capture the data3. How often to capture the data
Limits Acceptable, Concern, Unacceptable, Critical
Presentation Graphic or Text
Interpretation What does it mean?Does it reflect on OUR quality?
Limitations Unintended variables
Action Plan What will we do if it indicates acceptable performance?
What will we do if it does not – corrective measures, CQI
Exit Plan When can I stop measuring?
Pre-preanalyticalClinical question
Post-postanalyticaleffectiveness, Follow -up
QI BUILDING – knowing
the terrain – TM operational systems
User related – physician awareness
Donor related –promotion and selection
Blood collection, preparationstorage
The transfusion service
Clinical practice - blood componentadministration Assessment of effect
HOW DO THE OPERATION SYSTEMS
WORK?
• Critical control points - are those major processes of the operating systems that have to function properly if quality outcomes must be obtained
• Key elements - are operational steps that lead to CCPs.
• Identification of CCPs and KEs for TM operational system - fundamental pre-requisite for determining where quality indicators placements are desirable
C.C. Anyaegbu; ISBT Science Series (2011) 6, 35–45
BLOOD COLLECTION
CRITICAL CONTROL POINTS
Equipment&suppliesDonorphlebotomyPost-donationevents and care
KEY ELEMENTS
Blood component container inspection and documentation; recording bag lot #, expiry
Positive identification of donor
Arms selection •Arms preparation (cleansing) for phlebotomy
Collect & label donor unit & pilot sample tubes
Document time of phlebotomy
Observe for donor reactions •Manage any reaction
Post donation advice
Transport blood to processing unitTransport pilot samples to testing labs.
POTENTIAL QI
Percentage of voluntary blood donors
Rate of bacterial contamination of component
due to poor arms cleansing
Rate of donor phlebotomy failures
Percentage of labelling errors for donor unit
and/or specimen
Donor satisfaction survey (donor feedback)
Elective surgeries deferment rate due to
inventory shortage
PRODUCT -QUALITY
Need for a uniform and
strictly controlled process
TRANSFUSION THERAPY - SAFETY
Justifiable and correct
utilisation
BLOOD COMPONENT ADMINISTRATION
CRITICAL CONTROL POINTS• Blood components release & delivery for
transfusion • Recipient pre-transfusion bedside positive ID • Recipient transfusion & monitoring • Detecting, reporting & work-up of suspected
adverse events • Appropriateness of component request and use • Component disposition tracing

POTENTIAL QI
Wrong component selection ⁄ release
Patient ID at collection and administration
Correct transfusion rate
Correct observations and monitoring
Traceability
Rate of inability to track disposition of component
Component wastage rate
Circulars, EducationTransfusion committee and quality meetings
IDENTIFY PROBLEMS, RCA AND ------
QIs and CQIs
Continuous quality improvement - one of the main goals of the QMS
Regular documentation of results of QIs and CQIs
Any optimistic impacts?

AUDIT OF TRANSFUSIONS BEYOND 30 MINUTES AFTER ISSUEJAN 2016 TO OCT 2016
REASONS FOR WARDSIDE WASTAGE
• Inappropriate requests
• Patient issues – fever, “declared”
• Inappropriate storage in wards and OT (corrective –
BB fridges)
• Inability to get veins/wrong handling of the product
• Wastage associated with reactions
• Paediatric wastage (sterile connecting device)
