Evidence-Based Clinical Practice

GuidelinesConcepts & Definitions

Two Different Approaches to Evidence-Based Practice Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs)

•“Top-down” approach• Tell clinicians how to practice• Favored by health care systems

Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM)•“Bottom-up” approach• Teach clinicians how to find answers• Favored by medical educators

What is “EBM” NOT?• What we have always done !;

(not old hat or just the same old medical practice; as evidenced in wide practice variation)

• “Cookbook Medicine”!EBM specifically advocates for individualized application of evidence to patient care, not forcing patient care to conform to generalized evidence

• Only a cost-cutting trick !;it is intended to guide practitioners to provide the best, not necessarily the cheapest, care.

• Only RCTs !;(Also with best relevant evidence applicable to the situation in question)

– EBM is tracking down the best external evidence from scientific research to answer our clinical question(s)…

Definition: (old)“Systematically developed statements to assist

practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate health care for specific clinical circumstances” (IOM 1990).

Increasing international interest in the development and implementation of CPGs.

Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs)

CPGs New Definition

CPGs are “Statements that include Recommendations intended to optimize patient care that are informed by a Systematic Review of evidence and an assessment of the benefits and harms of alternative care options”.Committee on Standards for Developing Trustworthy CPGs (IOM-AHRQ 2011)

Why do we n

Rationale for CPGs•Worldwide concerns about: ▫Unexplained variations in clinical

practice▫Rising health care costs▫Exponential growth of information

• Aim of Clinical Practice Guidelines:▫To facilitate more consistent, effective and efficient

practice and improve health outcomes for patients

EBCPGs: Dr. Yasser Sami Amer 8719th March 2013

Adaptation of CPGsIs the systematic approach to the endorsement

and/or modification of a guideline(s) produced in one cultural and organizational setting for application in a different context. Adaptation may be used as an alternative to de novo guideline development, e.g., for customizing (an) existing guideline(s) to suit the local context.

Strategies & Tools

CPG Implementation• “The concrete activities and

interventions undertaken to turn policies into desired results“

Guidelines for clinical practice: from development to use. IOM, 1992

CPGs Practice

CPG Implementation Failure….WHY?

Extrinsic to CPG: provider-specific & care system-related

Intrinsic to CPG: ambiguity – inconsistency - incompleteness

Facilitators: QuestionsFrom your experience, what are

the most important factors that facilitate CPGs implementation?

Individual Positive attitude

Learning through small group interaction

Organizational Leadership support

Champions Team work collaboration

Environmental Professional association

support Inter-organizational collaboration networks

Facilitators

Implementability• Set of characteristics that PREDICT

the relative ease of implementation of CPG recommendations.

Implementability…….BEFORE implementation

How to Measure Implementability?

Ease and accuracy of translation of guideline advice into systems that influence care.

CPGs Implementability & Implementation - Dr. Yasser Amer

Clinical PathwaysSyns.: Integrated Care Pathways, Multidisciplinary pathways of care, Pathways of Care, Care Maps,

Collaborative Care Pathways.• Definition: structured, multidisciplinary care

plans designed to support …………………(3)1. implementation of CPGs and protocols.2. clinical management, clinical and non-clinical resource

management, clinical audit & financial management.3. detailed guidance for each stage in the management of a

patient with a specific condition over a given time period, including progress and outcomes.

Care pathways differ from CPGs, protocols and algorithms as they are utilized by a multidisciplinary team and have a focus on the quality and care co-ordination.

Pathways’ Four main Components:

1. Timeline.2. Categories of care or activities and

their interventions.3. Intermediate and long term outcome

criteria.4. Variance record (to allow deviations to

be documented and analyzed).

Tuesday, May 2, 2023 153

Benefits1. Support the introduction of EBM and use of

CPGs.2. Support clinical effectiveness, risk management

and clinical audit.3. Improve multidisciplinary communication,

teamwork and care planning.4. Can support continuity and co-ordination of care

across different clinical disciplines and sectors.5. Provide well-defined standards for care.

Benefits (cont’d)

6. Help reduce variations in patient care (by promoting standardization).7. Help improve clinical outcomes.8. Help improve and even reduce patient documentation.9. Support training.10. Optimize the management of resources.11. Does not override clinical judgment.

Differences between

Clinical Algorithm Clinical Care Pathway Decision – making. Coordinating Care.

Series of questions that guide designing sequence of steps.

Goal statement that guide key elements of care, roles and sequence of activities

Generic; applicable to all patients Individualized; may be designed for individual patient (integrated care plan)

Not time-related Time-related; hours in ED, days in acute care, weeks in chronic and home care.

Staff not mentioned clearly Usually multi-disciplinary staff and should be mentioned in the care plan

Systematic actions Systematic actions

Differences between

Clinical Algorithm Clinical Care Pathway Not outcome-related (does not

include standards or outcome of care)

Outcome-related (includes standards or outcome of care)

Only clinical processes Clinical & non-clinical processes

Maps Maps

Does not include order or priorities Includes order and priorities

Includes continuous feedback through tracking and analysing variance

No details of treatment Includes details of treatment

Standard Order Sets/ Standing Orders

Collection of medical orders in a pre-filled ordering paper template forms or in a computerized physician/provider order entry system (CPOE) for a selected group of patients throughout the different disciplines and it is usually based on EBCPGs to standardize diagnosis and treatment.

Tuesday, May 2,

Two types are currently identified in KSUMC:-1) Expert/ Consensus-based order sets: these

forms are result of the collaboration of one or more clinical departments and would require careful review and clinical expertise.

2) Evidence-Based order sets (Systematic Methodology): these forms are based on hospital adapted CPGs that were officially approved by the hospital CPGs committee (refer to HWQPP – 010)

With or without Clinical Decision Support (CDS)

SOLUTION• New HIS (e-SIHI) project supports CPOE.• Physician Build team assigned to build CPOEs

in collaboration with Lab., Pharm & Nursing.• CPOEs (order sets) based on hospital

approved adapted Evidence-based CPGs.

05/02/2023 Med. Err. & CPOE – Amer, Yasser 169

Expected benefits of HIS w. CPOE

05/02/2023 170

Expected benefits of HIS with CPOE

1. Reduce Medication Errors (patient safety)2. Serve as a reminder for busy clinicians (education)3. Clinical decision support during data entry

(Evidence-Based CPGs)4. Reduce time (save seconds/ mouse clicks): more

time spent with patients??5. Improve tracking & record keeping6. Improve communication & integration of patient

information.

Protocol• What is the difference between a "clinical guideline," "practice

parameter," and "standard"?• The phrases "protocol," "practice parameter," "pathway,"

"standard," "consensus statement," etc., are used in many different contexts and may not necessarily be a clinical practice guideline.

• Clinical protocols are more specific than CPGs, defined in greater detail; provide a comprehensive set of rigid criteria outlining the management steps for a single clinical condition or aspect of organization"

Audit Criteria/ indicators & Quality Measures

• Systematically developed statements that can be used to assess the appropriateness of specific healthcare decisions, services, structure, performance, and outcomes

Some Examples of currently monitored indicators for year 2013-14

• Structure Indicators (2)• Clinical documentation• Performance Indicators (4)• Length of stay• Outcome indicators (18)• Medication error• Adverse drug reaction• Mortality rate• Morbidity rate•Other clinical audit criteria have been identified special to some CPGs topics
