Quotes From Yesterday“We need to focus on the people who have the disease and not on the disease people have.”
“How many patient lives did you touch today?”
“We have opportunities to have a more complete picture of the patient.”

Population Management
Level 1 – Chronic Care ManagementWith the right support patients can take active careIn their treatment to prevent complications and diseaseProgression
Level 2 – High Risk Patient Care MgtDisease/care management using evidence-based care protocols for specific disease
Level 3 – Highly Complex Pt Case MgtPatient co-morbidities require special case management, usually by a nurse.

It is important to have the right information and
knowledge in order to be able to identify those who
are at most risk. Information is power when it is accessible
and actionable by those who need it –
when they need it.
![Page 5: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
What programs will help deliver good chronic disease management?
• Better integration of health and social care– Multi-disciplinary team approach *
• Quality outcomes framework– JCAHO Core measures *
• Development in IT – Remote monitoring *
• Developing new roles and new ways of working– Integration of HF & EP Clinics *
• Role of Allied Health Professionals– NPs, Pas , RNs, VNA *
• Practitioners with special interests & expertise– HF cardiologists, nurses *
* CHF application
![Page 6: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Essential Components of good disease management
• Use of information systems to access key data on individuals andpopulation– HF Registries– Integrated information systems ( Paceart, CareLink,
CardioSight, EMR)• Stratifying patients at risk
– ACC/AHA Stages of HF– Risk stratification protocols
• ADHERE Registry, Seattle Heart Model• Involving patients in their own care• Coordinating care (case managers, special clinics)
![Page 7: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Essential Components of good disease management…cont’d
• Integrating specialist and generalist care• Integrating care across organizational
boundaries• Reduce healthcare utilization
– Minimize unnecessary visits and admissions– Provide care in the least intensive setting
![Page 8: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Good chronic disease management can make a REAL DIFFERENCE
• Help prevent disease progression / deterioration• Help prevent crises• Help patient attain a good quality of life

Heart Failure Defined
“Heart failure is a complex clinical syndrome that can result from any structural
or functional cardiac disorder that impairs the ability of the ventricle to fill with
or eject blood.”
Hunt SA et al. Circulation. 2001;104:2996
![Page 11: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Epidemiology of Heart Failure in the United States
• 4.79 million patients1; estimated 10 million in 20372
• Incidence: about 550,000 new cases each year1
• Prevalence is 2% in persons aged 40 to 59 years, progressively increasing to 10% for those aged 70 years and older3
• Sudden cardiac death is 6 to 9 times higher in the heart failure population11991 2001 2037

JCAHO Core Measures
• Complete discharge instructions in the medical record
• Appropriate use of ACE inhibitors at discharge
• LVEF evaluated before or during admission or planned after discharge
• Smoking cessation advice/counseling

“Before I had the monitor, I would have been quite concerned about traveling far from home and my clinic. Having the monitor with me and knowing I could be ‘connected’ with my clinic withinminutes made me feel much better. We’ve been to Disney, and Palm Springs, and the Medtronic CareLink Monitor always comes along.”

Advantages of wireless
Better able to accommodate changing needs and schedules of both patients and of clinicians.
Easier for clinician to set up a scheduling routine that fits into current practice methods. Scheduling becomes automated, saving time for the clinic.
Automatic prescheduled checks may improve patient care and convenience while reducing compliance issues
Medtronic CareAlert monitoring may provide early detection and the opportunity to intervene sooner with proactive care

CardioSight Service Overview
Under a clinician’s instruction at the clinic, the patient places the mouse-like antenna of the CardioSight Reader over the implanted device. Data are transferred to the reader.
The reader transfers device data to a secure server via a standard analog phone line.The server then generates a Heart Failure Management or Cardiac Compass® Trends report. The report is sent to the clinician via fax with a privacy cover page.
The clinician reviews the cardiac trends (including OptiVolTM Fluid Trends if the device supports this feature) to help assess the patient’s status.

Many Information Systems May Co-Exist Due To Complex Information Needs in Healthcare Provider Settings
An Electronic Health Record (EHR) is an electronic record of patient health information in multiple encounters and can combine multiple specialties, e.g. immunization, labs, radiology, etc. with key features including orders, prescription writing, charting, workflow management, clinical alerts, and decision support
A Practice Management System (PMS) is a specialized system for scheduling and billing which may be part of the HER or a separate system.
![Page 69: The Role of Information Technology in Disease …The Role of Information Technology in Disease Management: A Case for Heart Failure Teresa De Peralta, MSN, APN-C Heart Failure Product](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042100/5e7cd0df1cf0d12d724f449d/html5/thumbnails/69.jpg)
Many Information Systems May Co-Exist Due To Complex Information Needs in Healthcare Provider Settings
Remote device follow-up systems such as Medtronic CareLink Network store a patient’s device data collected remotely.
Medtronic Paceart System is a specialized device clinic workflow and information management application that complements other healthcare information systems.
Health Level Seven (HL7) is the name of an organization that has developed a messaging standard (also known as HL7) which facilitates sharing of data across healthcare information systems.
