Personal QualitiesPersonal Qualities
IdealistA bit Naïve at timesLike playing devil’s advocateMost importantly I am fully aware that as
well as an employee of the NHS, I am also a PATIENT !!

IT Development - WhyIT Development - Why
Government Policy of reform in NHSPatient centred Policy with IT backbonePatients demand fast efficient NHS Providers dependant on efficient data
transfer and presentationLabs and Radiology supply 60-70% of
patient data
![Page 6: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)

Electronic Patient/Health Electronic Patient/Health RecordRecord
The driving force of these reformsGetting all the data into a single patient
recordAid Patient SafetyAllow Decision Support - allow links to
Guidelines and EBMAid efficiencies and use of scarce resources

Order Communication Order Communication SystemsSystems
Patient Safety– Positive Patient Identification (Bar Coded
wristbands/RDIF)– Vein to Vein tracking when issuing blood
products– Printing of labels at point of collection
Electronic Transmission of order to Lab. Electronic tracking of order back to patient

Laboratory Taking ControlLaboratory Taking Control
Electronic/Protocol based orderingSingle EPR across multi-site/sectors
– Reduction in unnecessary duplicate testing– Use of Evidence Based Laboratory Medicine
Transcription Error Reduction– Patient validation– Electronic reporting– Electronic links between Laboratories
![Page 9: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Electronic OrderingElectronic Ordering
Agreed Electronic Protocols– Chest pain, Abdominal pain
Guideline Awareness Hierarchical control of expensive/sensitive tests
– Consultant to authorise before test can be ordered
Duplicate Testing Control– Clinician automatically referred to previous results or
outstanding request status

HowHow
I.T. is only part of the solutionHow we implement and use I.T. must be
consideredThink about turning Data into useful
information then knowledgeThink as a patient and how you would
expect your information to be used

Sociological and Cultural Sociological and Cultural IssuesIssues
Major change in working practice across the whole organisation
Development of ‘technical’ system plusDevelopment of ‘users’ working practicesGives ‘best fit’ and successful
implementationKey staff must be involved from beginning
of any project

Problems
to be overcome.

Unique Patient IdentifierUnique Patient Identifier
Fundamental to EPR/EHRCurrent Multiple Numbers held in Legacy
systems across sites– Problems importing historical data– Problems keeping disparate records up to date– Problems Identifying patients to avoid multiple
records

Patient Database CleanupPatient Database Cleanup
Complete download all area patient demographics into new PMS Database
Link to local SCI Store and National CHI Database for updates
Merge matching historical records to new database on presentation
Populate all service systems such as Labs with new Database
Only download minimum historical data into new service database keep all rest in lookup account.

CommunicationCommunication
Staff Fears– Communication between all
disciplines/departments involved– understanding that there will be disadvantages
as well as advantages to individual groups – Adequate training for all users
![Page 18: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

ConfidentialityConfidentiality
Patient Data must be secureStaff access on ‘need to know’Appropriate audit trails on data accessInclude for use in R&D, EBMResource Password maintenance Secure fast logins
![Page 19: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

InfrastructureInfrastructure
Investment in infrastructure must include– Ring Fenced finance– Sufficient support to provide 24/7/365 cover– Regular upgrading of supporting equipment
Insufficient investment in above leads to– User stress, user disenchantment– Ultimately system failure.
![Page 20: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Quality IssuesQuality Issues
Variation in use of Standards– Database structure variations– User variation in data entry
Search methods Use of case
System upgrades– Reintroduction of ‘bugs’– Functionality changes
Applying Quality checks

TrainingTraining
Include overview of whole system Training time must be made availableRefresher training especially in backup
proceduresGeared to individual needs assessment Appropriate training at appropriate time

Pilot SitesPilot Sites
– Must be representative Include all sites if multi hospital Broad spectrum to cover most eventualities Where possible interface to all systems which will
ultimately be connected
– Must have eager Champion– Must realise there will be pain before gain– Should not be extended beyond pilot until all
major issues are resolved
![Page 24: Making IT work - Problem Child](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081518/5471837cb4af9fbe0a8b4c86/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

System ReviewSystem Review
Pre and post pilot audit of– Length of stay in unit (e.g. ICU)– No of requests with complete dataset– No of duplicate tests– No of clinical incidents reported with patient
ID problems
Publish Findings

Summary for Making OCS WorkSummary for Making OCS Work
Strong strategic leadership from project board Solve the Patient ID problem Getting the correct system ’champions’ to lead
their area of the project Ensure full understanding of current work practices Ensure new work practices are not slower than
current Ensure adequate training at the right time Publish findings
