• I have no relevant financial relationships with the
manufacturer(s) of any commercial product(s) or provider(s)
of commercial services discussed in this CME activity
• I do not intend to discuss an unapproved/investigative use of
a commercial product/device in my presentation

4. • Emergency care for children is variable with
significant opportunities for improvement.
• Basic administrative data are not adequate for
reporting and improving quality of care.
• Advances in health information technology to
access patient-centric clinical data (natural
language processing and penetrance of EHR)
provide opportunity.
Rationale
5. Aims:
•Develop an emergency care visit registry for
pediatric patients from EHR.
•Collect and determine benchmarks for stakeholder-
prioritized emergency care performance at
Emergency Department (ED) and clinician level.
•Report performance to individual ED clinicians and
sites while evaluating change using a staggered time-
series study.

Measurement of outcomes
•Defined; effectively & efficiently
measured
Transparency of data
•Rigorously determined & validated
Iterative data
•Informs processes of care
•Allows systems to adjust
16. • Visits attributable to provider (or site)
• Not identifiable to anyone but provider
• Stringent case identification for cohorts
• Number of cases involved in the measure provided
►Monthly or rolling quarter count
• Graphic representation of performance
• Trends over time
• Comparisons of performance for:
►Site (proportion or median)
►Network sites together
►Achievable Benchmark of Care (ABC)
Report Cards
17. • Measurable level of excellence
• Objective, reproducible, and predetermined
• Providers with high performance define
achievable level of excellence
• Providers with a small number of relevant
visits will not have high influence on
benchmark

Achievable Benchmark of Care
33. ED antibiotic use for acute ARTI
• Overall ED antibiotic provision for viral ARTI
low
• Differences in antibiotic provision by
patient race/ethnicity exist
– NH-whites more likely to receive unnecessary
antibiotics than minority patients
– Differences persisted after adjustment for confounding
34. • Can we use the rich clinical
data of the EHR to evaluate
diagnostics, therapeutics,
and outcomes?
• Can we improve care?
• Can we expand to all components of
care (pre-hospital, ED, inpatient)?
38. • Sepsis is life-threatening organ dysfunction caused by a
dysregulated host response to infection
• Septic shock is subset with circulatory (hypotension) &
cellular/metabolic abnormalities (lactate >2 mmol/L)
JAMA Feb 2016
39. ~4% of total pediatric
hospitalizations

42. Pediatric patients with severe sepsis treated according to a
protocolized care guideline and order set in the ED
•Improved Resolution of OD at day 2 OR 4.2 (1.7,10.4)
PCCM 2016
43. Improving Pediatric Sepsis Outcomes (IPSO)
• Reduce sepsis
mortality by 75%
• Reduce hospital-
onset severe
sepsis by 75%
Addresses all stages of sepsis across the care continuum:
emergency department, intensive care, general care,
hematology/oncology and bone marrow transplant units
initially, and NICU, pre-hospital, and ambulatory settings.

Challenges in sepsis recognition
48. PED Screen
Overall Goal: Improve the detection and
treatment of pediatric sepsis in the ED setting
–Expanded multicenter EHR registry
–Automate determination of organ dysfunction
directly from multicenter EHR registry
–Derive and validate prediction model of
pediatric sepsis that predicts organ
dysfunction within 48 hours using ED EHR
data from the first 4 hours of care
