Abstract:
In 2022, the Pediatric Endoscopy Quality Improvement Network published quality metrics related to pediatric endoscopy. We utilized electronic medical record (EMR) tools to collect pediatric endoscopy quality metrics (PEQM) and to standardize proceduralist feedback. EMR tools were created to capture and display PEQM: (1) an endoscopy documentation template, (2) nursing documentation of events during endoscopy for timed calculations, and (3) a data dashboard. Dashboard metrics provided individualized PEQM feedback relative to group performance and ideals where available. Utilization of the endoscopy documentation tools and data dashboard was measured. Utility was assessed using a survey based on the Technology Adoption Model. Adoption of documentation tools has been nearly universal with positive survey outcomes. Robust dashboard visualization has been demonstrated. Use of EMR documentation tools standardized PEQM collection. Future capture and sharing of common PEQM data across institutions could help determine PEQM benchmarks.
