114 - Development and Implementation of an Electronic Warning Scoring System to Detect Early Clinical Deterioration
Presenter: Mary Baker Organization: Centennial Medical Center (a facility of HCA TriStar Division), Nashville, Tennessee Abstract: To facilitate early detection and treatment of clinical deterioration of adult patients in medical surgical (MS) and step down (SD) patient care areas, an electronic Early Warning Scoring System (EWSS) was developed and implemented by an interdisciplinary team in a large tertiary, urban hospital. The EWSS utilizes six physiological parameters (temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate, systolic blood pressure, oxygen saturation and neurological status). Based on pre-determined criteria, the electronic health record (MEDITECH) assigns a score to the physiological parameter and calculates an aggregate score. Scores > 5 and increasing scores may be associated with an increased risk of clinical deterioration. The system assigns the scores and calculations via traditional attributes and includes minimal use of macros. OA messaging and @W.err keywords are used to provide automated alerts that guide direct care givers and members of the Critical Care Outreach Team (CCOT) towards appropriate action. Customized NPR reports guide direct care givers and members of the COCCT towards prioritization of care and rounding activities. The EWSS was implemented without additional software and hardware expenditures. The EWSS promotes use of health information for clinical decision support at the point of care. Use of the EWSS has decreased the Arrest Rate (respiratory and cardiopulmonary) in patients located in MS and SD patient care areas. Mary Baker RN, BSN, has over 30 years of experience in healthcare settings that includes seven years in healthcare informatics. Mary is a clinical applications manager in the Clinical Applications Services of HCA TriStar Division Information Technology and Services.

117 - Standardized Care Planning and the Clinical Information System (CIS) Are they Frenemies?
Presenter: Corey Tillyer Organization:Fraser Health, Surrey, British Columbia Abstract:According to Wikipedia, a frenemy can refer to either an enemy disguised as a friend or to a partner who is simultaneously a competitor and rival. Fraser Health (FH) is one of six Health Authorities within British Columbia. FH is home to MEDITECH s largest single standardized C/S database, which has an MPI containing over 1.6 million persons. FH currently has 14 hospital s running the foundational MEDITECH modules. But now comes the fun part it s time for FH to look toward advancing MEDITECH to ensure health care providers have the information they need for clinical decision-making at the point of care. In January and July 2011, Fraser Health met with MEDITECH executives to discuss the lessons learned from other advanced clinical systems implementations (that would be all of you!). Come learn what MEDITECH had to tell the FH team and stay for a discussion about how FH is using those lessons learned to move forward with Standardized Care Planning within the MEDITECH CIS. This discussion will include Governance operating models to support Standards for Planning Care and a MEDITECH Advanced CIS roadmap.
