- W2092266540 abstract "OBJECTIVES: To develop and test a standardized instrument, the purpose of which is to assess (1) whether skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) transfer residents to emergency departments (ED) inappropriately, (2) whether residents are admitted to hospitals inappropriately, (3) and factors associated with inappropriate transfers. DESIGN: A structured implicit review (SIR) of medical records. SETTING AND PARTICIPANTS: Using nested random sampling in eight community SNFs, we identified SNF and hospital records of 100 unscheduled transfers to one of 10 hospitals. MEASUREMENTS: Seven trained physician reviewers assessed appropriateness using a SIR form designed for this study (2 independent reviews per record, 200 total reviews). We measured interrater reliability with kappa statistics and used bivariate analysis to identify factors associated with assessment that transfer was inappropriate. RESULTS: In 36% of ED transfers and 40% of hospital admissions, both reviewers agreed that transfer/admit was inappropriate, meaning the resident could have been cared for safely at a lower level of care. Agreement was high for both ED (percent agreement 84%, kappa .678) and hospital (percent agreement 89%, kappa .779). When advance directives were considered, both reviewers rated 44% of ED transfers and 45% of admissions inappropriate. Factors associated with inappropriateness included the perceptions that: (1) poor quality of care contributed to transfer need, (2) needed services would typically be available in outpatient settings, and (3) the chief complaint did not warrant hospitalization. CONCLUSIONS: Inappropriate transfers are a potentially large problem. Some inappropriate transfers may be associated with poor quality of care in SNFs. This study demonstrates that structured implicit review meets criteria for reliable assessment of inappropriate transfer rates. Structured implicit review may be a valuable tool for identifying inappropriate transfers from SNFs to EDs and hospitals. J Am Geriatr Soc 48: 154–163, 2000." @default.
