Number of adult (18 years or older) inpatient admissions reported as having had a VTE risk assessment on admission to hospital using the national tool. Number of adults who were admitted as inpatients (includes day cases, maternity and transfers; both elective and non-elective admissions). Need to define exclusions as above VTE is a significant patient safety issue, however outcome data on VTE is poor post mortem studies suggest that only 1-2 in every 10 fatal pulmonary emboli is diagnosed. Whilst work is underway to improve reliability of outcome data, the process measure of VTE risk assessment will set an effective foundation for appropriate prophylaxis. This gives the potential to save thousands of lives each year. Monthly return through Unify.

Each describes a different element of the overarching theme - responsiveness to personal needs : Involved in decisions about treatment/care. Hospital staff available to talk about worries/concerns. Privacy when discussion condition/treatment. Informed about medication side effects. Informed w ho to contact if worried about condition after leaving hospital Index-based score reflecting positive responses to the 5 questions within the composite indicator. N/A The indicator incorporates questions which are known to be important to patients and where past data indicates significant room for improvement across England. Adult inpatient survey, from the CQC nationally coordinated patient survey programme. The survey is conducted annually between October and January for patients who had an inpatient episode between July and August. Provider Annually: 1. Early local data (mid-january 2012) 2.

Indicator number 3.1 Indicator name Dementia case finding Indicator weighting TBC (% of CQUIN scheme available) Description of indicator Numerator Denominator % of all patients aged 75 and above admitted as emergency inpatients who are asked the dementia case finding question within 72 hours of admission or who have a clinical diagnosis of delirium on initial assessment or known diagnosis of dementia. Number of patients aged 75 and above admitted as emergency inpatients, reported as having been asked the dementia case finding question within 72 hours of admission to hospital or who have a clinical diagnosis of delirium on initial assessment or known diagnosis of dementia. Number of patients aged 75 and above, admitted as emergency inpatients, minus exclusions.(excludes day cases, patients with a length of stay of less than 72 hours, transfers and elective admissions in year 1) Rationale for inclusion Exclusions: Those for whom the case finding question cannot be completed within 72 hours of admission for reasons of coma, critical illness, severe speech and language difficulties, sensory impairment, lack of translator, family or professional care giver. Re-admissions and frequent attenders without a diagnosis of dementia will be excluded if there is evidence of these patients having been assessed within the last 6 months. Dementia is a significant challenge for the NHS-25% of beds are occupied by people with dementia, their length of stay is longer than people without dementia and they often receive suboptimal care. Half of those admitted to hospital with 5

Referral out to appropriate specialist community services is often poor for these patients.

11 Goal 4: Patient Safety Thermometer Description of goal what do you want to achieve? Description of indicator how will achievement be measured? Numerator This CQUIN incentivises the collection of data on patient harm using the NHS Safety Thermometer harm measurement instrument (developed as part of the QIPP Safe Care national work stream) to survey all relevant patients in all relevant NHS providers in England on a monthly basis Detailed information on the appropriate patients and relevant settings for use of the NHS Safety Thermometer are defined in the NHS Safety Thermometer guidance for use 1. The intention is for all NHS-funded providers, across community, mental health, acute and residential and nursing care, including NHS-funded independent sector providers, to use the Safety Thermometer, apart from where exceptions apply, as detailed in the guidance. This will allow nationally consistent data to be collected and published as well as facilitating local improvement activity. Where providers already have in place existing data collections that duplicate the measures in the tool, commissioners should use this CQUIN to incentivise transition to the safety thermometer tool to ensure data is produced that is consistent with the national collection. All relevant providers will be expected to have begun use of the national Safety Thermometer measurement tool by the end of 2012/13. Use of the Safety Thermometer will be mandatory in 2013/14. Where organisations are already submitting full data for the safety thermometer and there is no room for further improvement, commissioners should consider increasing the proportion of CQUIN payments available for the other national CQUIN goals. This CQUIN will require monthly surveying all appropriate patients (as defined in the NHS Safety Thermometer guidance) to collect data on four outcomes (pressure ulcers, falls, urinary tract infection in patients with catheters and VTE). Experience to date suggests data is best collected at the point of care by healthcare professionals (in accordance with guidance) using a point prevalence survey method (one day per month), entered into the instrument by administrative staff and aggregated at organisation level by performance teams or other suitable staff. Data should be submitted to the Information Centre quarterly. A completed Safety Thermometer survey for all relevant patients must be included for each month in the relevant quarter s submission to trigger payment. Number of months per quarter for which a complete record of Safety 1 Further guidance on the application of the Safety Thermometer, including appropriate settings for use and when it is clinically appropriate to exclude particular patients from the survey, will follow shortly. 11

12 Thermometer survey data covering all appropriate patients in all appropriate settings for all relevant measures is submitted. Denominator Total number of relevant months in the quarter (usually 3). Participation in data collection using the NHS Safety Thermometer is an important preparatory step for NHS-funded provider organisations in reducing harm. Incentivising use of the NHS Safety Thermometer will increase the participation in this data collection, establish a national baseline of performance on the four harms and provide information on the range of performance. This will allow the establishment of quality improvement aims Rationale for inclusion for year two (further details to follow) and contribute to the provision of data required for the Outcomes Framework and Government Transparency Agenda. Data source The intention is that further improvement goals relating to outcomes measured by the Safety Thermometer will be incentivised in future years. Data is from two primary sources according to the NHS Safety Thermometer guidance: a physical examination of the patient (including a conversation with them or their carer) and nursing / medical records (including pharmacy records). Frequency of collection Further information will be provided in due course on how to submit data. Data will be collated locally using the NHS Safety Thermometer tool on a single day per month (day to be determined locally in each provider). This monthly data will be uploaded by each provider to the NHS Information Centre on a quarterly basis (ie data representing the 3 constituent months in a single quarter uploaded to the IC quarterly) Organisation responsible for data collection Frequency of reporting to commissioner Baseline period / date Baseline value Final indicator period / date (on which payment is based) Final indicator value (payment Further information will be provided in due course on how to submit data. WSHT Quarterly - reporting use of NHS Safety Thermometer will be through direct submission of the data to the Information Centre. The commissioner will use the data published by the Information Centre to review performance for each relevant Quarter. Not applicable.
