Abstract:
PURPOSE:Transitions of care from the intensive care unit (ICU) to a hospital ward are high risk and contingent on effective communication. We sought to identify essential information elements to be included in an ICU to hospital ward transfer summary tool, and describe tool functionality and composition perceived to be important. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A panel of 13 clinicians representing ICU and hospital ward providers used a modified Delphi process to iteratively review and rate unique information elements identified from existing ICU transfer tools through three rounds of review (two remote and one in person). Qualitative content analysis was conducted on transcribed audio recordings of the workshop to characterize tool functionality and composition. RESULTS:A total of 141 unique information elements were reviewed of which 63 were identified by panelists as essential. Qualitative content analyses of panelist discussions identified three themes related to how information elements should be considered when developing an ICU transfer summary tool: 1) Flexibility, 2) Usability, and 3) Accountability. CONCLUSION:We identified 63 distinct information elements identified as essential for inclusion in an ICU transfer summary tool to facilitate communication between providers during the transition of patient care from the ICU to a hospital ward.
