05/01/2008		Competing Approaches to Patient Safety: The Handoff Problem R. Wears View description Concerns about the safety and quality of health care have created the 'patient safety movement' and led to a wide variety of activity. Although many may not have realized it, there is a great debate about the best strategy for effecting improvement that carries over into debates about the quality of 'evidence' and what constitutes scientific activity. This debate is rooted in underlying and often unrecognized differences in the philosophies of science and additionally is divided along social and professional lines, with healthcare researchers tending to assuming one side, and human factors professionals taking the other. We will explore these competing approaches, using the problems associated with handoffs in clinical work as an exemplar.

04/20/2007		Creating Resilient IT: How the Sign-Out Sheet Shows How Clinicians Make Healthcare Work C. Nemeth View description Healthcare is variable, contingent, complex, evanescent work domain. Systems such as information technology (IT) that are intended to support healthcare are often brittle; unable to adapt in the face of such change. Clinicians have developed subtle and well-tuned ways to match resources to variation in demand volume and quality. Their initiatives make it possible for healthcare teams to adapt and survive despite challenges…to be resilient. System developers can learn about how healthcare workers perform in such settings, but need appropriate methods to be effective and efficient. The study of cognitive artifacts can reveal meaningful information about the healthcare setting and how clinicians create resilience. Insights from such research are way to develop resilient systems and to improve healthcare safety.

02/12/2007		Proxy Perspectives on Health-Related Quality of Life: Applying Conceptual Framework to Prostate Cancer A. Pickard View description When assessing health-related quality of life (HRQL), proxy assessments are sometimes necessary. A conceptual framework has been developed that delineates between 2 proxy perspectives: elicitation from the patient perspective (proxy-patient), or from the proxy’s perspective (proxy-proxy). There is limited appreciation for this difference in the literature, and extent to which these perspectives differ systematically is unclear. The aim of this study was to determine if proxy assessment of HRQL differs according to perspective in prostate cancer, and to identify any factors that explain differences. In this presentation A. Simon Pickard will speak about this study. This event was sponsored by the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health Department of Population Health Sciences.
02/02/2007		Applying a User Centered Quality Model to Healthcare Environments M. O'Neil View description Michael O'Neil, PhD, addresses the importance of a "user-centered" approach to design and management of healthcare environments. Users include patients, visitors and staff. This presentation asserts that assessment of healthcare facility quality must go beyond existing (important) measures of patient health outcomes, and include the impact of design of space on the quality of the user experience. A Six-Sigma based approach to implementing user-centered quality measures is then discussed. O'Neil's current research on Cancer Treatment Centers will also be briefly addressed.
