Ok #QIeducators — let’s see if we can crowdsource to see what #QI #ptsafety being taught in medical schools across Canada — thanks @sdmckay2002 @SchulichMedDent for getting us started...
Cc @NishanSharma29 @DrToddLee @DrEmilyMcD @ACSmaggus @eddeestyle @HemeHillis @RogerWong10 @MKChan_RCPSC @cameacem
We also have been teaching #QI #ptsafety across the four years of medical school at @uoftmedicine — last year we had the privilege of work with @gregswings to partner with patients and families to teach #ptsafety to our students

I often hear people say that we should apply what we know from #QI to the #COVID19 response -- the concerns around COVID testing and trying to increase our testing capacity serve as a good example where knowledge of systems can be helpful. A thread.
I often teach #QI with @kgshojania.

He uses this analogy of a Rube Goldberg machine to describe complex systems in healthcare.

Rube Goldberg machines are intentionally designed to perform a simple task in an indirect and overly complicated way

E.g., a pencil sharpener
A: Open window
B: Fly kite
C: Pull pulley
D: Lift cage door
E: Release Moths
F: Eat coat
G: Raise boot
H: Flip switch
I: Turn on iron
J: Burn shirt
K/L: Smoke out opossum
M: Jump out of tree
N: Land in basket
O/P: Lift cage
Q: Reveal woodpecker
R: Sharpen pencil

I have set my clock to 10:30 AM to get @jkwan_md's amazingly informative updates on Ontario's #COVID19 situation.

Want to take this opportunity to thank her immensely, but also reflect on 4 #COVID19 curves that really worry me.
The first is the fact that we have no known Epi-link for 50% of our new cases -- @IrfanDhalla points this out repeatedly as a major barrier to properly #TestTraceIsolate Image
The 2nd is the fact that our testing turnaround time is getting longer -- for the first time since early April, we have more pending test results than reported test results (a whopping 48,000 tests pending) -- which means a delay to identifying cases and proper #TestTraceIsolate Image

Today, as the Director of the Centre for Quality Improvement & Patient Safety (@CQuIPS) at the University of Toronto (@uoftmedicine) sent a message to all of our members -- a call to action to mobilize now to support health system efforts to respond to #COVID19
"Our focus at @CQuIPS will be to mobilize as many of our members, graduates and current students and direct them towards their local QI efforts to respond to the #COVID19 pandemic."
I urged each and every one of them to strongly consider whether any non-COVID related initiatives can be put on hold for now, and direct their time and energy to help our health system respond to the #COVID19 pandemic
