Opening Remarks
Thank you for the invitation!
Honor to come to Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia!
Worked with Annette Bollig (and others at CHOP) for years, as
well as knowing Ron Karen since residency
1
The Basics
Learning objectives
Understand the rationale for the patient safety imperative
Review concepts of reliability science
Translate high reliability constructs into practical improvement
strategies
Take home messages
Harm occurs at high frequency in children’s hospitals
Traditional quality improvement strategies will only move us
to patient safety mediocrity
Translating high reliability concepts into health care will be
challenging, but will move us into ultrasafe care
2
Why should we care about patient safety?
Institute of Medicine report (1999)
Data is flat out disturbing
44,000-120,000 deaths/yr in US hosp (est)
7,000 deaths/yr from medication errors in
US (est)
Compared to 45,000 deaths in car accidents
Costly (LOS, malpractice)
Lay press/public (credibility)
Joint Commission
Medical systems increasingly complex
Problem ain’t going away
3
Background
(Bare with me just a little…)
4
Adverse Medical Event (AE)
Adverse Event (AE) - An injury, large or small, caused
by the use (including non-use) of a drug, test, or
medical treatment. This may be as harmless as a
drug rash or as serious as death. (modified from IHI
definition of an adverse drug event or ADE.)
5
Harm vs. Error (IHI)
“Error”: concept of preventability, process-focused
“Adverse event”: harm, outcome focused
Relationship between errors and adverse events
Adverse Errors
Events

Pediatrics: ADE Rates with Trigger Tool
Takata, Mason, Taketomo, Logsdon, Sharek. Pediatrics April 2008
960 Pediatric Inpatients;
11.1 ADEs per 100 admissions;
22x more ADEs than incident reports
12% of 95 “neonatal patients” (< 30
days old) had an Adverse Drug Event
7
74 Adverse Events per 100 admissions
56% of all Adverse Events “Preventable”
Adverse Events in the NICU setting are substantially higher
than previously described. Many events resulted in permanent
harm, and the majority were classified as preventable…
8
PICU Trigger Tool Trial: Preliminary Results
Total Patient Count: 734 Average AEs over all Patients:
Total Triggers: 2,816 2.03/patient
Total # AEs identified: 1,488 Average AEs in patients with adverse
Total Number of Patients with events: 3.27 / patient
Adverse Events: 455 (62%)
Overall # AEs per 100 pt. Days=
91% of patients with an AE 28.6
Identified with a Trigger (=416/455)
Average AEs per Trigger (Positive
Number of patients with multiple
(> 1) Unique AEs: 245 (33%) Predictive Value of any given trigger):
0.444
Average LOS: 7.1 Days
Average Triggers per Patient: 3.84
Mean Time for Chart Reviews:
24.7 minutes (per reviewer)

Strategies to Address Adverse Events
Practical-Target top offenders
Rational and Logical
I contend that this is like being on call, putting out fires…
Will get you to 10-2 or 10-3 level of reliability
Results not impressive nationally…
11
Are we better off 5 years after IOM???
JAMA. 2005 May 18;293:2384-90
“…Although these efforts are affecting safety
at the margin, their overall impact is hard to
see in national statistics”
12
Strategies to Address Adverse Events
Practical-Target top offenders
Rational and Logical
I contend that this is like being on call, putting out fires…
Will get you to 10-2 or 10-3 level of reliability
Stretch your mind…To really address pt safety, to make a huge
impact on patient safety
…shift in philosophy
…paradigm shift
Look to other complex high risk industries who have done this well
13
What do you call an organization/industry
that is complex and risky…
But very safe?
High Reliability Organization
14
Definition: High Reliability (IHI)
Failure free operation over time from the perspective of the
patient.
Reliability Index:
Unstable process: Failure in greater than 20% of opportunities
10-1: 1 or 2 failures out of 10 opportunities
10-2: 1 failure or less out of 100 opportunities
10-3: 1 failure or less out of 1,000 opportunities
10-4: 1 failure or less out of 10,000 opportunities
10-5: 1 failures or less out of 100,000 opportunities
10-6: 1 failures or less out of 1,000,000 opportunities
15
Average Rate Per Exposure of Catastrophes and
Associated Deaths Per Activity (“Reliability”)
Amalberti, et al. Ann Intern Med.2005;142:756-764
16
Reliability Science
Principles used to
Examine complex systems and processes
Calculate overall reliability
Develop mechanisms to compensate for limits of human ability
Adopting these principles-increase likelihood that the system will
perform it’s intended functions reliably. In healthcare:
Help providers minimize defects in care
Increase consistency in care
Improve patient outcomes
17
Highly Reliable Organizations
Characteristics (Attributes)
Karl E. Weick, PhD Organizational Psychologist
University of Michigan
18
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
1. Preoccupation with failure
2. Reluctance to simplify interpretations
3. Sensitivity to operations
4. Commitment to resilience
5. Deference to expertise
Weick, et al. Research in Organizational Behavior. 1999;21:81-123
Weick, Managing the Unexpected: Assuring High Performance in an Age of
19 Complexity, Jossey Bass 2001
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
1. Preoccupation with failure
Small failures are as important as large failures
Avoid complacency:
Success breeds confidence in a single way of doing
things and generates complacency
Ex. “My patient has never had a Potassium
overdose, so why should I change?”
Success narrows perceptions
Worry about normalization of unexpected events
20
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
2. Reluctance to simplify interpretations
Closer attention to context leads to more
differentiation of worldviews and mindsets
Look for the root cause, not the obvious cause
Ex. Dumb resident wrote a 10-fold overdose
Root Cause: “dumb” resident was up all
night, in ED with seizing kid, called for
verbal order, …
21
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
2. Reluctance to simplify interpretations
Differentiation (diverse viewpoints) brings a
varied picture of potential consequences better
precautions and responses to early warning signs.
Over dependency on insiders leads to
simplification
Ex. Inbreeding at LPCH/Stanford leads to “The Packard Way…”
22
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
3. Sensitivity to operations
Attentive to the front line where the real work gets done
Authority moves toward expertise:
Role of RNs
Role of Clinical MDs, PNPs
Role of Parents
Make continuous adjustments that prevent errors from
accumulating and enlarging based upon reporting from
operations, not the “master plan”
23
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
4. Commitment to resilience
Develop capabilities to detect, contain, and
bounce back from those inevitable errors that are
part of an indeterminate world
Ex. Trigger tools (and automation)
A focus on intelligent reaction, improvisation
Correct errors before they worsen and cause
more serious harm
Ex. “stop the line”
24
Attributes of High Reliability Organizations:
Weick
5. Deference to expertise
Decisions are made on the front line, and
authority migrates to the people with the most
expertise, regardless of their rank
Avoidance of the structure of deference to the
powerful, coercive, or senior
25
Mindfulness: Weick
“Together these five processes produce a
collective state of mindfulness. To be mindful is
to have an enhanced ability to discover and
correct errors that could escalate into a crisis.”
26
Rene Amalberti, MD, PhD
Cognitive Science Department, Bretigny-sur-Orge, France
Amelberti et al. Ann Intern Med 2005;142:756-764
…the most important difference among
industries…lies in their willingness to abandon
historical and cultural precedent and beliefs
that are linked to performance and autonomy,
in a constant drive toward a culture of safety…
27
How do you translate all of this theoretic
garbage?
A few ideas from Paul…

Just why do we want to be transparent again???
Provide our patients and community with good
information to make informed decisions about a child’s
or expectant mother's health care
Offer honest and accurate data about the quality of
services we provide
Be leaders and proactive in the data transparency
movement
Hold ourselves accountable for providing high quality
and safe care
52
Findings from Dartmouth-Hitchcock
(10/2005)
“Healthcare systems have the opportunity to: 1) be proactive and
accountable for the healthcare that they provide; 2) help patients learn
more about their conditions…; 3) use public reporting to foster… quality
improvement”
Journal on Quality and Patient Safety. October 2005, pages 573-584.
53
NEJM February, 1 2007
As compared to the control group (n=406), P4P hospitals
(n=207) showed greater improvement in all measures of
quality… After adjustments were made for differences in
baseline performance and hospital characteristics, P4P was
Hospitals engaged in both public the 2 year period
associated with sig improvements… over reporting, and P4P
achieved modestly greater improvements in quality
than did hospitals engaged only in public reporting

Conclusions
Adverse Events in hospitals occur frequently
Targeted interventions for high frequency events
valuable, but wont move organizations past mediocrity
To make quantum leaps in quality and patient safety
Use tenets of reliability science
Integrate attributes of highly reliable organization
Understand and overcome the barriers to high reliability in
health care
And remember…
