Why A-QUACH ? Improving Anesthesia QUAlity in Switzerland
... to measure is to know – if you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it ...
Lord Kelvin (William Thomson)
1824-1907
None Board member SGAR/SSAR and president of the committee for data & quality in anesthesia (KDQ)
Kantonsspital Winterthur uses the following electronic health record (as customer) PDMS: HIM Q-CARE / A-UI
Health Information Management
Conflict of interests
How to improve quality – SGAR/SSAR and quality
A-QUA Part A – Data from institution – Reports, current participation
A-QUA Part B – Data from individual cases – Module 2a,b (activities) – Modules 3 (pre-op), 4 & 5 (intra-/post-op events) – Data management – upload, interface, security
Further information on A-QUA
Agenda
How to improve quality ? Health provider
Individual Environment (workplace) Organization
Training, CME – knowledge, technical, non-technical skills ... Compliance with current standards Accreditation Certification
Examples:
How to improve quality ? Patient care Standard of care, data monitoring/recording, risk management Health record, routine data – (e-)HR: KIS/PDMS ... Additional data – surveys, data for BAG, ANQ, AQC, registries ... CIRS & adverse event management Billing data
A-QUA – standardized data collection and reporting: institution and case-based incl. benchmark Outcomes – patient satisfaction, national morbidity / mortality rates incl. benchmark Error-Risk Management – collection, analysis (ERA, RCA) and reporting (M&M) of near misses, unusual cases, adverse events, and serious patient injuries ... Costs – ranking (standard DRG...)

A-QUACH is mandatory
A-QUA IS MANDATORY Part A – since 2016 Part B – transitional period 1.1.2020 (1.1.2022)
QM – part of the SGAR/SSAR-specific quality program, fulfilling criteria of the legal basis for quality assurance (Art. 58 KVG, Art. 77 KVV) Mapping – Swiss anesthesia development
over time on different levels Politics / health insurances etc. – basis and
tool for negotiations Research – database for longitudinal studies,
clarification of specific, scientific questions
A-QUACH – goals
http://www.sgar-ssar.ch/ - KDQ, A-QUA
A-QUACH – summary
Part A. Data from institution
«module 1» 1. Institution
– setting and structure – summary of activities – staff requirements
Part B. Data from individual cases
«module 2-5» 2. Activities
– discipline, urgency – intervention (A-QUA Code) – time stamps, location – type of anesthesia, monitoring
3. Pre-op risk 4. Intra-op events 5. Post-op events

• Non-vital emergency, requiring care within 24 hours
Emergency 1-6h, not threatened vital (urgent intervention )
• Non-vital emergency, but requires urgent care within 6 hours
Emergency <1h, threatened vital (immediate intervention necessary )
• Vital emergency requiring immediate care
Procedures Main procedure (1)
Secondary procedures (3) to be coded by A-QUA Codes (n=165)
– Procedure groups – Well defined, standard
interventions
http://www.sgar-ssar.ch/ - KDQ, A-QUA Codes
A-QUA Codes
Working principle Chapters (ex TARMED)
e.g. 06
Procedure group (Name) e.g. Code 0602: Diskushernien OP LWS, eine Etage (Standardeingriff) – Well defined, standard
intervention – Definition of procedure(s)
LWS Dekompression ein- oder beidseitig bei Discushernie, eine Etage, alleiniger Eingriff
– Key words Discushernie, Fenestration, Hemilaminektomie, Laminotomie
– Surgical risk class = 3
Time stamps (A1-A12)
2014 (Version 1) first published by SGAR / SSAR
2017 (Version 2) minimal adjustments due to revision of the «Deutsches Glossar perioperativer Prozesszeiten und Kennzahlen» (BDA/DGAI, BDC/DGCH, VOPM) available D, F, I
Association of Swiss hospitals has adopted these definitions (REK 14_006)
Time stamps (A1-A12) mandatory for A-QUA, REKOLE A = für A-QUA verpflichtend Anästhesie Betreuungszeit (A1-A12), Ein-Ausleitung (A2-A10), Schnitt-Naht (A7-A8)
R = für REKOLE® verpflichtend (REK® Entscheid 14_006) Empfehlungen der SGAR/SSAR bezüglich Interpretation der REKOLE Zeiten: • Anästhesie Betreuungszeit (Anästhesie Leistungszeit im OP Saal, AnLZ)
Beginn Anästhesiebetreuung (A1) bis Ende Anästhesiebetreuung (A12) • OP Saal-Zeit
Beginn op. Vorbereitung (nicht-ärztlich, Lagerung; A4) bis Saalausfahrt (A11) • Ärztlich chirurgische Leistungszeit (chLZ)
Beginn op. Vorbereitung (ärztlich, Desinfektion; A6) bis Ende op. Nachbereitung (A9)
