R MOORE/ M SUTCLIFFE FINAL DRAFT 22 MAY 2012
Summary
The Staffordshire, Shropshire & Black Country Newborn Network (SSBCNN) has responsibility for the collection of data and reporting service quality from Trusts and through formal network reports, advise on quality improvements and activity to inform future contracting for services.
In order to provide robust and meaningful data to commissioners the SSBCNN has identified a reporting and data schedule in the network as specified in this document. This includes standard Trust activity and staffing reports as well as specific quality measures, clinical outcomes and parent and user experience. This is as part of the network’s commitment to introducing the principles described in the Toolkit for High Quality Neonatal Services (DOH 2009) and to monitoring the Quality standards for specialist neonatal care (NICE 2010).
Introduction
The publication of the Toolkit for High Quality Neonatal Services (DOH Oct 2009) and the Quality standard for specialist neonatal care (NICE 2010) clearly puts high quality services as part of a ‘whole pathway’ collaborative approach between commissioners and providers with managed clinical networks providing the lead on the provision and coordination of care. The ‘Toolkit’ sets out the principles that underpin the delivery of high quality services and provides a basis upon which networks, commissioners and providers are measured. The quality measures accompanying the quality standard for specialist neonatal care aim to improve the structure, process and health outcomes of specialist neonatal care.
The introduction of the unit specific pathways in the SSBCNN from April 2011, along with the already established transport service meets some of the recommendations for change within the ‘Toolkit’. It is important that these initiatives show real improvement for neonatal care and with this in mind it is important that the network ensures better monitoring of services to fully understand the impact that these initiatives will have within the SSBCNN and the real challenges for services.
Other documents published recently are looking at improving not just clinical outcomes and the hard activity and capacity figures but the most important aspect of care delivery, family experience and satisfaction.
The publications of: “Poppy Steering Group. Family-centred Care in Neonatal Units. A Summary of Research Results and Recommendations from the Poppy Project” (2009) and the revised “BLISS Baby Charter Standards” (2009) informed principle 3 Care of the baby and family experience, in the ‘Toolkit’. These documents along with the “Parents’ experiences of neonatal care A REPORT ON THE FINDINGS FROM A NATIONAL SURVEY” (Picker Institute Dec 2011). provide neonatal services with a set of challenges to meet, not only the parents expectations of good outcomes, but also their full and open engagement in the babies pathway of care from admission to discharge as equal partners.
As much as possible the network has taken account of data already collected and reported to minimise any increase in unit workload.
R MOORE/ M SUTCLIFFE FINAL DRAFT 22 MAY 2012
SSBCNN Clinical Effectiveness
In view of the need to collate and monitor data SSBCNN has appointed a Consultant Neonatologist with 2 PAs per week for the network to act as Clinical Effectiveness Lead (CEL). The remit of this role is to lead on Clinical Effectiveness throughout the network focussing on the analysis and use of the neonatal data collected by all units in the network using the Clevermed neonatal data system in order to support the network in meeting:
1. The principles within the Toolkit for High Quality Neonatal Services
2. NICE Quality Standards – “Specialist Neonatal Care”
3. Quality Innovation Productivity Prevention (QUIPP)
4. Agreed Commissioning Quality Initiatives (CQUINS)
5. National Neonatal Audit standards (NNAP)
6. Regional quality monitoring through the QI – the West Midlands QI neonatal clinical indicators
7. Monitoring of safety and mortality review
8. The National Neonatal Dashboard Indicators
In order to fulfil these aspects the post holder requires access to each unit’s anonymised data held in the suite of single unit, network, commissioner and national reports in Neonatal.Net. The CEL will review the monthly returns and if any significant variation to the previous months data are identified the CEL will liaise with the specific unit’s data champion and clinical lead to ascertain any reasons for this.
Reporting Schedules
Activity, Capacity and Operational Challenges
Each Trust is mandated to return the Neonatal Minimum Data Set to the Department of Health and will continue to do so.
Furthermore in 2012 a National Neonatal Dashboard is being introduce (appendix 1) which the monthly completion by each Trust will form a CQUIN for 2012. It is expected that all units will populate the dashboard in order to fulfil this requirement. A copy of each Trusts monthly dashboard should be also forwarded to the Network to collate a network operational report. This is spread sheet based to allow ease of collection and analysis.
In 2012 all units in the SSBCNN have access to the Clevermed Badger Clinical IT system and it is expected that all activity returns will be provided from this system.
Specifically this will include;
Network Activity & Outcomes Matrix
The purpose of the network outcomes and monitoring matrix is to allow adjustments in practice to be made where required. The matrix includes activity data as well as key outcomes data. The Network Manager/Lead Nurse completes the information required for this mostly from the suite of reports in the clevermed badger neonatal data system and in addition asks each unit for information relating to the number of live births and babies cooled each month. (appendix 2)
R MOORE/ M SUTCLIFFE FINAL DRAFT 22 MAY 2012
Mortality Monitoring & Shared Learning
The network will also collect anonymous mortality data on a quarterly basis from each trust, either by receipt of trusts own learning points from review processes or by the completion of the network mortality data collection sheet (appendix 3).
A sub group of the network QIPP group consisting of the Network Lead Clinician, CEL, Network Manager/Lead Nurse, a doctor (Subramanian Mahadevan) and a nurse (Barbara Hodgkiss) representative will collate the learning points received into a brief quarterly report which will be taken to the following QIPP group for dissemination of the learning to all units in the network.
Neonatal Adverse Events Monitoring & Shared Learning
SSBCNN will also collect anonymous data on serious clinical incidents on a quarterly basis from each trusts review processes or by completion of the network Neonatal Adverse events data collection sheet (appendix 4).
The Network Manager/Lead Nurse will collate the information received into a brief quarterly report which will be taken to the following QIPP group for dissemination of the learning to all units in the network.
Neonatal Mortality & Serious Clinical Incidents Review & Shared Learning Process
Individual Unit Leads submit anonymous information of learning points from all neonatal deaths and serious clinical incidents quarterly to SSBCNN
SSBCNN Sub group from QIPP Collates Quarterly Anonymous Information of learning
points from all neonatal deaths into a report for the QIPP Group Meeting
QIPP group meeting discuss reports and identify areas for shared learning within the network and nationally as appropriate
Anonymous shared learning points documented and circulated to each unit in
the network quarterly
QIPP group chair writes to the specific Trust(s) seeking permission to share anonymous information about the identified serious
incident nationally through the BAPM process

Parent and Family Experience
Understanding user engagement, involvement and satisfaction at a local level has always been difficult to collect in a meaningful way. It is important that the network becomes better at understanding how neonatal services can be improved from the parent and carer perspective.
The Picker Institute has undertaken a parent experience study across a number of networks, including SSBCNN based on POPPY, BLISS Charter and the ‘Toolkit’. These results have been analysed and action plans formulated to address areas for improvement. SSBCNN expects trusts to report on progress in addressing these points in 2012.
In addition to this the network will require monthly reporting from units via the Clinical Effectiveness Lead on a specific item already collected as part of NNAP and is a data item within the Badger IT system, this is;
Parent Involvement (standard 100%)
All parents and carers have a consultation with a senior member of medical staff in the first 24 hours
Clinical Quality and Outcomes
All units within SSBCNN will be expected to provide the commissioners and the network with validated clinical audit data and analysis as an annual report.
In addition to this all units participate in the National Neonatal Audit Programme and it is expected that units will continue to support this data collection in 2012. As all units have access to the Clevermed Badger Clinical IT system data will be collected via this. It is expected that all units will ensure their registration on the system to provide a consistent approach to data sharing with NNAP through their governance and data sharing agreements with Clevermed.
In addition to the ongoing audit collections and annual reports the Network has identified key items within these for monthly collection directly from Trusts. These are identified for this year as potential key markers of service quality. The CEL will produce a monthly NNAP network dashboard (See Template for this report in appendix 5) of these by liaising with the Badger champion for each unit concentrating on improvement of data for 5 key NNAP items.
1. Parent involvement (as above)
2. Temperature at birth/admission (standard 100%)
(a) All babies < 28+6 weeks gestation have their temperature taken within 1st hour of delivery (b) All babies admitted to the neonatal unit to have a temperature ≥36C – 37C (90% 36.6 – 37.0C)
3. Baby Friendly
Babies <33+0 weeks gestation are discharged home on breast milk (wholly or partially)
4. Antenatal steroids (standard 85%)
Mothers who deliver between 24+0 and 34+6 weeks gestation receive at least one dose of antenatal steroids
R MOORE/ M SUTCLIFFE FINAL DRAFT 22 MAY 2012
5. ROP screening (standard 100%)
All babies <1501g or <32+0 weeks gestation, and still an inpatient, undergo first ROP screening as per current guidelines.
West Midlands Neonatal Quality Clinical Indicators
The West Midlands quality observatory will also be collating data identified to be used in the West Midlands Quality Indicators panel (appendix 6) as agreed at the Stakeholder event. This is being developed and tested in 2012 and may be subject to further refinement.
Patient Pathways and Transfers
Care pathways and the transport service have already improved the care and experience of babies and families by ensuring care in the right place as close to home as possible. As with any system of care monitoring progress and the impact of change and understanding future development needs for services is essential.
Pathways
In order to provide on-going monitoring, units will be required to provide pathway exception reports via proformas for IUT exceptions (appendix 7) and EUT exceptions (appendix 8).
If required the network may, on occasion, require further information from units as to exceptions. In these instances, further specific information required will be requested at the time.
The Network Manager/Lead Nurse will monitor transfer requests through the transport system, unit activity through Badger and exception reporting every month and report on this at the quarterly network board.
Transport
Monitoring of the transport service will be under separate agreement with the transport service. The network has a transport users group with membership from key stakeholders and acute trusts from both network areas which meets bi-annually to review transport reports and discuss issues relating to the service and provide essential feedback from service users. A quarterly summary transport report is submitted to both network boards. See appendix 9
Standards Assessment Tool
Agreed network standards are monitored through the network standards assessment web based tool. This is a dynamic tool which Trusts complete in an on-going manner, where tests are not fully met action plans are generated. The Network Manager/Lead Nurse takes a Quarterly Snapshot Report to the Network Board meeting (Appendix 10) to monitor progress of the trusts in meeting the standards.
Network data governance
Each Trusts’ own employees can access full Badger data regarding their own patients and those that they have transferred to other units.
Each units’ Badger champion should, in addition to this, be able to access patient reports for their own unit.
The Network Manager/Lead Nurse can access Neonatal data through the suite of single unit and network reports developed by clevermed, Caldicott guardian approval has been gained from each Trust to support this.
R MOORE/ M SUTCLIFFE FINAL DRAFT 22 MAY 2012
The CEL, by working with the Badger champion, has access to anonymised patient data from each unit. In certain circumstances the CEL may ask for further information from the Badger champion which can also be anonymised. The CEL may also require “read only” access to certain data to fulfil Network, Regional and National requirements in which case the Caldicott guardian for each trust will be contacted to facilitate this. Any patient identifiable data will always be anonymised before ongoing use.
The quality observatory (WMQI) has access to anonymised data from the Trusts whose Caldicott Guardians have approved this for use to populate the agreed WM QI neonatal quality clinical indicators only.
Any data collected will only be used for the aforementioned purposes for use within the Network only. Any requests from within or outside the Network for Trust specific data will be redirected to the Trust concerned; the Network will not divulge Trust specific data.
