Traditional Nurse Triage vs. Physician Telepresence in a Pediatric ED

Marconi GP, Chang TP, Pham PK, Grajower DN, Nager ALePub 2013 Dec 21

Background

Telemedicine is a rising phenomenon within hospitals

Telemedicine feasibility and accuracy has been studied for the adult population

The objective of the study: 1. Compare accuracy between RN & tele-MD 2. Compare time between RN & tele-MD 3. Compare tele-MD triage orders to ED MD orders

25

Research Question / Disclosures

Concise Research Question (PICO or PPO) P: CHLA ED patients (Levels 3, 4, or 5) I: Tele-MD triage C: RN triage O: total triage time (not counting vitals), # items

filled out correctly by triage, triage score (per treating MD), parent & pt satisfaction (Likert), # lab orders (strep, urine, XR, blood)

Emergency Department Transfer of Care Sign-Out Analysis

Festekjian A, Nager Aenrolling

Background

Telephone EM transfer-of-care (TOC) is a high-risk environment for medical error

Hypothesis: use of a standardized sign-out guide will improve communication

31

Research Question / Disclosures

Concise Research Question (PICO or PPO) P: CHLA or Rotating trainees in the ED performing

TOC sign-outs I-1: Use of TOC guide I-2: Use of FaceTime I-3: Use of TOC guide + FaceTime C: No guide O: Points earned on Checklist, Duration, pt RRT, pt

3 Questions to Improve Study

1. Is having the guide an appropriate intervention?

2. How will we know our sign-out assessment would suffice?

3. How can we determine what teaching methods lead to a good TOC sign-out?

Attitudes and Barriers to Foley Catheter Placement for Trans-

abdominal Ultrasound in Adolescent Females

Waterhouse MR, Pham PK, Yang M, Chang TPIRB phase

Background

Institutions & practitioners are inconsistent regarding IV fluds, po fluids, or foley catheters for transabdominal pelvic ultrasounds

Little is documented regarding patient / family wishes or preferences, nor practitioner preferences, nor effect on efficiency and ultrasound quality

Objective: Characterize & Explore pt attitudes and barriers to having foley catheter placement

37

Research Question / Disclosures

Concise Research Question (PICO or PPO) P: Non-sexually active Adolescent females and

family members P: Salient themes regarding foley catheter

placement and IV fluid administration O: Decision or tendency to decide IV fluids therapy

or foley catheter therapy

Disclosure None

38

Approach

1. Focused 1-on-1 Interviews to gather salient themes for thematic analysis using grounded theory

2. Conversion of themes into statements to agree and rank

3. Secondary validation using different population of adolescent females

39

Timeline

July 2014 – IRB approved Aug 2014 – Begin 1-on-1 interviews

Expect ~ 10 interviews until thematic saturation Oct 2014 – Planning for Q-Sort statements Winter 2014 – 2015 Q-Sort interviews Presentation – AAP 2015 Manuscript – Summer 2015

40

3 Questions to Improve Study

1. “Consensus opinion” on statements, attitudes, beliefs

2. Other populations – ethnic differences? MDs and RNs beliefs?

3. Next steps: prospective comparison study (IV vs Foley), US training for RNs to verify bladder full
