Practice Gap/ Objectives / Disclosures

  • Practice Gap: Lack of information available regarding utilizing

telemedicine in heart failure patients post discharge

  • Desired Outcome:

– Providers will understand the effect of utilizing technology to manage a specific population from discharge to home. – Providers will recognize how internal/external workflows are vital to effectively manage the patients. – Providers will recognize that in home monitoring can be a valuable tool for this population.

  • Disclosure of relevant financial relationships in the past 12

months: The three presenters have no relevant financial relationships with commercial interests that may have a direct bearing on the subject matter of this CME activity

Acute Care Telemedicine

  • Program began 2007

– PICU to Sacred Heart, Eugene

  • Expansion in 2010

Service lines

– Stroke, PICU, NICU – Genetics, Trauma – Neurosx, Psychiatry

17 sites

– based on local needs

Heart Failure at OHSU

  • Advanced heart failure Program

– average 35 VADS per year – average 18 Heart transplants per year .

  • Approximately 400 patients a year discharged with primary

diagnosis of heart failure

  • All disciplines treat heart failure patients

– Advanced Heart failure – General Cardiology – Family Practice – Internal Medicine – Hospitalist Service

Specific Issues

  • Approximately 40% of OHSU heart failure

patients live outside Portland metro area, making care transitions from the hospital difficult

  • Low patient self-management leads to increased

risk of readmissions

slide-12
SLIDE 12

Self-Care Areas of Focus

  • Education

– Symptoms and red flags-recognizing changes in condition (abdomen bloated, more short of breath, less energy) – Impact of adherence – What do the numbers mean

  • Impact of lifestyle choices

Fundamentals of Teaching for the Heart Failure Patient

  • Daily weights
  • Symptom recognition and reporting
  • Low sodium diet
  • Medications
  • Activity
  • Fluid restriction if needed
  • Follow-up

Basic Heart Failure Daily Education

  • RNs assess patient every day
  • Patient given scale if needed
  • Whiteboard used

In-Home Monitoring

  • FY11: 887 adult related 30-day readmissions to OHSU for patients

discharged home (5.1% of total admissions)

  • Center for Medicare Services (CMS) to begin penalties for

readmissions for CHF, AMI and PNEU

  • To prevent readmissions, OHSU implemented a 30- to 60-day in-

home monitoring program for high-risk CHF patients in coordination with Care Management and the Cardiac Service Line

Program Administration

  • Overall Cost (January – December 2013): $15,861

– Excludes time (no full-time staff, four part-time people devoted to program)

  • Administration

– Spreadsheet tracks all patients over time (including after disenrollment from program) – Bi-weekly check-in phone calls with vendor to discuss issues – Invoice management/shipping

  • Stocking & Retrieval of Devices

– Have had to adjust to shipping timelines (very slow, which forces us to think ahead) – Retrieval of devices has been difficult due to short enrollment timeline

  • Overcoming Technical Issues

– Rural patients – Phone lines vs. modems – Setup issues

Summary

  • In home monitoring in heart failure patients

is cost effective and decreases all cause readmissions.

  • For our complex patients, we believe this

is a good adjunct to help transition care from hospital to community.
