NHS Improving Quality was invited to take part in a recently held event that celebrated the work that is being done in partnership between the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust and AQuA to deliver a Quality Improvement Methodologies Programme (QuIMP).
Gillian Phazey, Learning and Organisational Development Manager at Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust explains:
'The Learning and Organisational Development and Governance teams at the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust have been working collaboratively with AQuA to deliver a Quality Improvement Methodologies Programme (QuIMP) to support staff in developing knowledge and skills in this topic. The programme has been specifically designed to support colleagues wanting to gain an introduction to the fundamentals and concepts of quality improvement. So far, two cohorts of staff, from clinical and non-clinical areas of the Trust have completed the programme, and have completed quality improvement projects in their own work area to apply their knowledge. On 17th July a celebration event was held for cohort 2 where staff presented their work in poster or presentation form, the aim of which is to share and spread learning across the Trust. Projects were wide ranging, from introducing new processes to reduce complaints and drug errors, to improving patient experience by implementing new tools and techniques. The day was a great success with the Chief Executive and Chief Nurse in attendance. The Trust is highly supportive of this approach in equipping staff with these important techniques, and the programme supports not only our internal quality agenda and objectives, but more widely responds to the recommendations of the Berwick report. The next cohort is starting in September this year.'
Fiona Thow, Patient Safety Collaborative Delivery Lead at NHS Improving Quality delivered a keynote speech, (link to presentation slides) providing a national perspective on the plans for improving patient safety and took the opportunity to introduce the national safety collaboratives. She also highlighted the need for organisations and individuals to think differently about safety for both patients and staff.
Patient’s experience, improve the quality health3zsaddique
Putting patients first requires more than world-class clinical care – it requires care that addresses every aspect of a patient’s encounter with Hospital, including the patient’s physical comfort, as well as their educational, emotional, and spiritual needs. A team of professionals should serves as an advisory resource for critical initiatives across the Hospital health system. In addition, it should provide resources and data analytics; identify, support, and publish sustainable best practices; and collaborate with a variety of departments to ensure the consistent delivery of patient-centered care.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS
Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

So id like to start right off the bat with a few assumptions that I think are fairly safe to make about the work im going to lead in the next few years. Not so much because I think these are high-minded principles that its my job to remind people like yourselves about (although we will need to be more and more principle led as our resources diminish and the expectations of us grow) but mainly because these are as I see them the most fundamental ideas that will shape they way we will have to think about patient experience going forward. This is the bottom line of patient experience if you like. The first thing is actually the bottom line. We don’t have new money, we will likely have less in the future and so we must be cost effective, be efficient, and deliver services which really meet patient and purchaser needs. In order therefore to truly only focus upon what patients need and will services they will use properly we will need to shift our thinking in terms of where our understanding of patient experience sits within the way we manage and improve services. Instead of just being a somewhat static endpoint of care used to measure some aspect of some service we have to better understand (and not just measure) whats happening with our service users at all points in their pathway and be much more nimble in the way we respond individually and also at a service and system level. Ill give a real example of that a little later on. As I move towards my middle age this is a bit of a hard thing to come to terms with but it’s a fact that the people we work with now are different to the people we used to be when we used to be them. Generation Y employees for want of a better term are demanding more work in teams, and in teams small enough to feel part of. They are also demanding greater empowerment and come to us as employers, managers and leaders with higher expectations of the ways in which they should be involved in change. This is a huge opportunity for us if we can adapt our ways of working to meet these changes and capitalise on this shift properly. Another working assumption id like to suggest to you is that the days or thinking of the people who use our services and the people who providing them as sitting in separate camps (or even worse one group “inside the tent” and some outside) are now gone. There is pretty good evidence to suggest that one of the best ways to improve staff experience is to improve patient experience and involvement and likewise having staff authentically drive service improvements alongside and through the eyes of patients will give us the best chance of rapid, effective and sustainable change. Finally this might seem a bit obvious but if what we are about is state of the art clinical care, then we will have to invest our intellectual capacity and also some resources into state of the art of improvement techniques. Its my contention that these techniques (such as a LEAN toolkit) not only have the best chance of results, but are very much aligned with the principles or assumptions ive just described.
In this Collaborative, the mission of the King’s Fund Point of Care Programme and participating hospitals is to achieve in 18 months, a breakthrough in patient and family experience in two care pathways within each organisation. The Mission also includes the development of a means to spread the initial learning and improvement more widely within each organisation, as a means to bring about comprehensive change for the whole.
No drastic action needed… Patient experience rated as both good and bad in most areas. Therefore we already deliver great service…just not reliably enough. Some evidence for greatest improvement opportunities around edges of care.
