8:00 – 8:55 AM | A Private Practice Preoperative Clinic Model: Supporting the Perioperative Surgical Home Initiative
Dr. Sheryl Marks This presentation will focus on the experience of building, staffing and overseeing a Preadmit Clinic in a private practice setting and how this intersects with the concept of the Perioperative Surgical Home. Learning Objectives:
Dr. Sheryl Marks is a private practice physician anesthesiologist in Seattle and has been with her current group, USAP-WA—formerly Physicians Anesthesia Service—since 2007. She enjoys a wide range of clinical roles including providing anesthesia services for general surgery, thoracic surgery, orthopedic surgery, and obstetrical care. She is the current Medical Director of the Swedish Medical Center Preadmit Clinic which serves patients undergoing surgery at the First Hill, Cherry Hill and Ballard campuses. |

Leveraging Real World Data to Drive Clinical Practice Clinical staff at the front lines of healthcare spend an increasing amount of time entering data in the EMR systems. Once that digitized healthcare data is generated, it is hard to get it out of the system. That hinders our ability to develop into a "learning health system." In this presentation, you will learn to view clinical and operational outcomes through the lens of industrial process engineering, understand basic concepts of variation and to distinguish noise from signal. I will demonstrate who we are able to use this "real world data" to solve big problems (e.g. over use of opioids). Learning Objectives:
Dr. Daniel Low is an attending pediatric anesthesiologist at Seattle Children’s Hospital, an Associate Professor in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Washington, and a passionate educator with numerous teaching awards and continues to teach classes monthly at the Washington Institute of Simulation in Healthcare. His published research interests include human factors, patient safety, lean-methodology and technology. His stated career goal is to help save lives lost in healthcare systems by reducing and eventually eliminating preventable harm. Dr. Low believes this is achievable by leveraging outcome-based data to drive system improvements and coupling this with industry-wide human factors training to create expert teams. |
