JHF and its operating arms, including WHAMglobal, are helping to standup, administer, and facilitate the PA PQC
Perinatal Quality Collaboratives (PQCs)PQCs are networks of teams working to identify processes that need to be
improved and quickly adopt best practices to achieve collective aims across prenatal, labor/birth, newborn, and postpartum services

• To explain a framework for a QI project:• Problem Statement• Goal/SMART Aims• Understanding the current process• Designing interventions / ideas for improvement• Discuss the importance of measurement• Develop a project plan – 30/60/90 day
• Provide an example of a project to illustrate these points.

What is a system?An interdependent group of:◦People◦Processes◦ Items (tools)
…working together toward a common purpose.
Improving medical care requires system redesign…
“Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets.” – Paul Batalden
The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting to get a different result.
1. Pick a number from 3 to 9
2. Multiply your number by 9
3. Add 12 to the result from step 2
4. Add the 2 digits together
5. Divide result of step 4 by 3
6. Convert the number to a letter: 1=‘A’, 2=‘B’, etc.
7. Write down the name of a country that begins with the letter
8. Go to the next letter in the alphabet
9. Write down the name of an animal (but not a bird or insect) that begins with that letter
10. Write down the color of that animal.
What It Takes To ImproveWill to change the current system◦ Understanding the human side of change
Ideas about changes that will improve the system◦ Including a theory that links changes to outcomes
Execution of the ideas◦ Including a way to distinguish successful from unsuccessful changes

Model for Improvement
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 38
• Three questions for the basis of a project charter and anchor the work.
• Ideas from question three can be tested using PDSA cycles to make improvement as well as learn about the system of care.
Lean/Six Sigma
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 39
• Lean = Waste Reduction• Six Sigma = Variation Reduction
• Fishbone Diagram• 5 Whys• Value Stream Maps• Spaghetti Diagram• FMEA
The 5 Key Principles for Improvement1. Knowing why you need to improve.
2. Having a feedback mechanism to know if improvement is happening.
3. Developing an effective change that will result in improvement.
4. Testing a change before attempting to implement.
5. Knowing when and how to make the change permanent.
The Problem Statement
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 41
The Problem StatementProblem/Opportunity statement should answer these questions:
• What is occurring or What are we missing?• When did the problem start?• Where is the occurrence?• Extent (Gap) of the problem or opportunity
Example:• In FY18 (When), the CLABSI rates (What) were 4 times higher
than expected (Extent) in the NICU (Where).
Goals / SMART AIM
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 43
What are we trying to accomplish?A SMART Aim Statement• Specific
• Measurable
• Actionable• Realistic
• Time-bound
“To reduce the incidence of CLABSIs to less than 2 per 1000 catheter days in NICU patients by December 2013.”
Understanding the Current State
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 45
Process Mapping Purpose◦ Visually document a process◦ Understand the existing process and problems◦ Quickly identify improvement opportunities within the process◦ Helps communicate inside and outside the organization
Key Principles◦ Documentation is not substitute for observation◦ A flowchart is a means not an end◦ Boundaries what to map should come from your project charter◦ Involve a cross-representation of those who work in the process to create the map◦ Process maps are meant to be used
Current vs. Future StateCurrent State◦ Captures the project as it works today; including waste◦ Most projects should include a current state map
Future State◦ The ideal process; waste eliminated◦ Created by asking “What would we do if we didn’t at have any of
the restrictions we have today?”◦ Helps see the work in a new way and generate creative ideas
Which Process Map is For You?Process Map Description When to Use
High Level Process Map•View from 30,000 Feet•Depicts major elements and their interactions•5-8 steps total
•Early in the project to identify boundaries and scope
Detailed Process Map •A detailed version of the High Level Process Map•Fills in the all the steps within the high level steps
•To see a detailed process in a simple view•Helps to identify and follow decision points
SIPOC
Process snapshot that captures information that is critical to a project
•To come to agreement on project boundaries and scope•To verify that process inputs match the outputs of theprocess•Quality issue
VSM (Value Stream Map)•Captures all key flows (of work, information, materials) in a process and important process metrics•Requires a current and future state to be done
•To identify and quantify waste•Helps visualize the improvement opportunities•Flow or time issue
Swim Lane FlowchartEmphasizes the “who” in “who does what” •To study handoffs between people and/or work groups in
a process•Especially useful with administrative (service) processes
Spaghetti Map Depicts the physical flow of work or material in a process •To improve the physical layout of a workspace (unit,office, floor)
Reducing MRSA Colonization• This diagram is called a
Fishbone, Cause and Effect or Ishikawa Diagram.
• The adverse event or problem is at the “head” of the fish.
• Factors associated with this problem are listed along the “bones” of the fish.
• Each “bone” has a category label.

The Importance of Measurement
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 53
How will we know that change is an improvement?
• The voice of the customer or patient.
• Reflects the problem you are trying to solve.
• Describes how your overall system is performing.
Process Measures
• Steps logically linked to outcome of interest.
• Addresses how key parts of the system is performing.
• Describes what happens to the system as processes and outcomes have changed.
• What are the unintended consequences or alternate explanations?
Balancing Measures
Outcome Measures
Example NICU Family of MeasuresOutcome Measure: • Number of CLABSI per 1000 catheter days
Process Measure: • Hand hygiene compliance• Hub Scrub compliance• Insertion Checklist compliance• Tubing Change compliance• Removal checklist compliance
Balancing Measure: • Need to replace central line• Increased cost of hand hygiene supplies• Infiltrates from peripheral IV use
The Importance of Operational Definitions
If data collected differently by different people, or differently each time collected, it makes it hard to know whether changes in the data are due to the changes tested or from inconsistencies in data collection.

An Example Project –Antenatal Steroids
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 63
The Problem StatementAt the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, only 55% of our infants born between 24 and 34 weeks gestation were exposed to antenatal corticosteroids (ANCS) in calendar year 2017. This is far below the average steroid utilization rate (85%) of units who submit their data to the Vermont Oxford Network. This is important to our patients because ANCS have been shown to reduce mortality, RDS, IVH, and NEC.
What? When? Where? Extent (Gap)? Why?
© 2019 JHF, PRHI, HCF, & WHAMglobal 64
Our SMART Aim
To increase the percentage of infants born between 24 and 34 weeks gestation at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania receiving antenatal corticosteroids from 55% to 85% by December 2020.

Operational Definition of ANCS Administration
The Antenatal Corticosteroid Administration rate is the number of infants whose mothers were administered corticosteroids IM or IV during pregnancy at any time prior to delivery divided by the number of infants born between 24 weeks and 34 weeks.
ANCS Rate = Infants whose mothers received any corticosteroids
All infants born between 24 and 34 weeks gestation
