Auditing Basics Deborah R. Campbell, RN-BC, MSN, CCRN Alumna K-HEN Quality Improvement Advisor Kentucky Hospital Association

–A sample is: A few of many Part of a whole –A good sample is something else! Sampling

Common Errors: –Too small –Not representative Representative samples allow us to make accurate statements about our population as a whole Obtaining a meaningful sample

–IDEALLY, we would gather data on every instance of the intervention or outcome we are auditing Example: Med Rec- 100% chart review- look at every patients admission paperwork –Barriers Very large numbers Limited resources Obtaining a meaningful sample

–To be statistically relevant as a sample, it is accepted practice to gather at least 20 points of data monthly. If the total population you are studying or measuring is < 20/month, each and every item should be audited. If the population is larger, sampling techniques are appropriate. Obtaining a meaningful sample

 Avoiding Selection Bias  For items which are consecutive, use the auditing method of “Every “n”th item”.  Using the example of Med Rec again, one could design the process to audit every 10 th admission (assuming there are enough admissions per month (>200) to provide 20 total audits for the month. If there are fewer than that, one could audit every 5th admission, etc. How to gather a GOOD sample

Avoiding Selection bias –For measure which require counts or observations, use the scheduling of days/times per month method. Using for example CAUTI bundle compliance, one could design the process to audit: –All patients with a CVL every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. ( or Q Monday ) Things to consider: differences among days of the week relative to census, staff, types of patients. Now what??? Cont’d

Rotating audit schedule- more complicated, but may give you better information –Example 1 Weeks 1 and 3: M, W, F Weeks 2 and 4: Saturday and Sunday –Example 2 Weeks1 and 3: M, W, F day shift Weeks 2 and 4: M, W, F night shift (or Sat, Sun PM) –Example 3 Weeks 1 and 2: Med-Surg Units Weeks 3 and 4: ICUs Cont’d

Care team members other than primary RN –Supervisors, charge nurses –Nurses helping out (regular, floated, agency) –PCAs –Ward clerks –X-ray technicians –Respiratory therapists –Transporters –Family members –Patients themselves Maintenance Takes a Village
