Patient Safety Incidents

IntroductionAdvance Care Planning (ACP) is an important component of patient centred end-of-life care (Houben et al. 2014; Brinkman-Stoppelenburg et al. 2014). However there is little evidence available on the safety of the process and its impact on quality of care.AimTo characterise the nature of patient safety incidents arising around the ACP process for patients approaching end-of-life.MethodThe National Reporting and Learning System (NRLS) collates patient safety incident reports across England and Wales. We performed a keyword search and manual review to identify relevant reports between 2005 and 2015. A mixed methods process combining structured data coding and exploratory descriptive analysis was undertaken to describe incidents underlying causes and outcomes. A thematic analysis identified areas on which to focus improvement initiatives.ResultsWe identified 67 incident reports in which patients experienced inadequate care due to issues with implementation of ACP. The most common source of error was (mis)communication of ACP (n=27) where documentation was lost or verbal handover was inaccurate. Over one third of reports (n=24) described an ACP not being followed. In the remaining reports (n=16) an ACP was not completed despite being appropriate. The most common contributory factor was inadequate staff knowledge (n=18). Common outcomes were cardiopulmonary resuscitation attempts contrary to a patient’s wishes (n=18). Other outcomes included inappropriate treatment or transfer/admission.ConclusionOur national level analysis identifies key priorities which should be explored in local contexts: specifically improving public and staff understanding and engagement with ACP and developing systems for recording and accessing ACP documentation across healthcare services.References.

AbstractBackgroundAdvance care planning (ACP) is identified as being an important process for people with dementia. However, its efficacy for improving outcomes relevant for the individual, carers and the health system has yet to be established.AimWe conducted a systematic review with the aims of testing the efficacy of ACP for people with dementia and describing the settings and population in which it has been evaluated.MethodsA search was completed of electronic databases in August 2016. Articles were included if they described interventions aimed at increasing planning for future care of people with dementia, delivered to the person with dementia, their carers and/or health professionals.ResultsOf 4,772 articles returned by searches, 30 met the inclusion criteria, testing interventions in nursing home (n= 16) community (n = 10) and acute care (n = 4) settings. Only 18 interventions directly involved the person with dementia, with the remainder focusing on surrogate decision-makers. In all settings, interventions were found effective in increasing ACP practice. In nursing homes, ACP was found to influence care and increase the concordance between end of life wishes and care provided. Interventions in the community were found to improve patient quality of life but were not shown to influence concordance.ConclusionFuture research should focus on ways to involve people with dementia in decision-making through supported means.
