Patient Safety Dashboard now available
Thanks to the knowledge gained from our work on the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Hospital Engagement Network (HEN), we have developed a dashboard for all of the Dallas-Fort Worth Hospital Council Foundation’s participating facilities. This dashboard is displaying measures based on data already collected through the Claims Data Warehouse. Users can now track a variety of measures from their facility and compare performance to regional and national rates.
Measures users can track include:
- foreign objects retained after surgery
- air embolism
- blood incompatibility
- pressure ulcer stages III and IV
- falls and trauma
- vascular catheter infections
- central line-associated bloodstream infection (CLABSI)
- catheter associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI)
- manifestations of poor glycemic control
- surgical-site infection (SSI) following coronary artery bypass graft (CABG)
- SSI – colectomy
- venous thromboembolism (VTE) pulmonary embolism ( PE) all-cause
- clostridium difficile (CDIF)
- ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP)
- maternal deaths
- intrapartum neonatal death
- uterine rupture
- unplanned maternal admission to intensive care unit
- birth trauma inborns
- return to operating room (OR), labor and delivery (L/D)
- admit to neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) of neo birth weight >= 2500 grams and Gest >= 37 weeks
- American Pediatric Gross Assessment Record (APGAR) 5<7 inborns only
- maternal blood transfusion
