Resident guideline development to standardize intensive care unit care delivery: a competency-based educational method.

Abstract:

PURPOSE:We developed a system of resident-driven, evidence-based standardization of care in our trauma-surgical intensive care unit (TSICU). Our main purposes are to improve patient care and outcomes and to help the residents develop practical competency in practice-based learning and improvement and in systems-based practice. DEVELOPMENT OF THE ACTIVITY:Since October 2006, each rotating TSICU resident has chosen a topic to research the available evidence and has developed a guideline, which the resident then presents to the TSICU faculty and residents for discussion, amendments, and acceptance or reevaluation. EVALUATION COMPONENT:Evaluation of proposed guidelines is based on the quality of information presented in support of the recommendations. Ultimately, acceptance of a guideline requires consensus among the TSICU faculty. Immediate feedback is given to the presenting resident by the faculty. The residents evaluate the program via a Web-based evaluation tool. PROPOSED OUTCOME MEASURES:We have qualitative data from residents that indicate this experience is positive. We are developing a tool to use both qualitative and quantitative means to evaluate resident, faculty, and nursing staff satisfaction with the process. We will use our clinical database to evaluate whether improved patient outcomes have resulted from standardization of care. IMPLEMENTATION DATES AND EXPERIENCE TO DATE:We implemented this methodology in October 2006 and have thus far implemented 20 guidelines and 2 standardized order sets. CONCLUSION AND OR NEXT STEPS: We believe competency is achieved and demonstrated by actively participating in a process such as development of care guidelines. Researching and developing standardized guidelines for our TSICU seems to be an effective and practical way for residents to use multiple sources for practice-based learning and improvement. It also requires the resident to advocate for quality patient care and optimal patient care systems. We plan to use outcome and qualitative data to validate this method.
