560906 - Talked to Gloria at Kaiser's Coagulation Treatment Clinic in Martinez.
560908 -  ..
560909 - Gloria explained that after the call last Friday, 061020, from Ross
560910 - with Kaiser's Oncology Clinic Pharmacy in Walunt Creek, ref SDS D4
560911 - VE57, Millie's list of medication prescriptions was updated to show
560912 - capecitabine (Xeloda) on the computer in the Coagulation Treatment
560913 - Clinic.
560915 -  ..
560916 - Gloria said that capecitabine (Xeloda) affects the way the blood
560917 - absorbs and processes Coumadin.  Treatment with this combination will
560918 - present more problems achieving stable INR requirements for a level
560919 - between 2 and 3.  This means Millie will need more blood tests, at
560920 - least once a week, rather than every 4 weeks or so without Xeloda.
560921 -
560922 -        [On 061214 treatment mistake pulmonary embolism warfarin
560923 -        (Coumadin) conflicts with prescription for Diflucan; blood test
560924 -        INR rises 6.4 danger zone for hemoraging; blood clot
560925 -        coagulation treatment paused for 3 days; INR update test
560926 -        advanced. ref SDS D9 HF4O
560928 -         ..
560929 -        [On 081229 computer problem recurring in CT Department staff
560930 -        not aware of doctor's referral to perform test using Power Port
560931 -        for injecting contrast medium, and not aware accessing Power
560932 -        Port scheduled in Infusion Clinic, and requires coordinating
560933 -        support from IS. ref SDS F4 5G3I
560935 -  ..
560936 - Gloria seemed to indicate that Kaiser has a lot of data in computers.
560937 - The part of the computer system that shows capecitabine (Xeloda) was
560938 - prescribed by the Oncology Department for Millie on 061002 is
560939 - different from the part where the Clinic manages coagulation
560940 - treatments with Coumadin.  She indicated that remembering how to use
560941 - other parts of Kaiser's computer system, in this case finding the list
560942 - that shows capecitabine (Xeloda) for Millie, takes extra time to for
560943 - training, learning, and then using a particular sequence of commands.
560944 - Sometimes the computer system is immediately responsive, and it is
560945 - down for repairs, and sometimes it is very slow due to high volume of
560946 - activity.  These conditions cause people with a hectic schedule not to
560947 - follow up and check the computer, even when they have the training and
560948 - skills, and intent to do so.  As a result, the Clinic appreciated
560949 - getting the call from Ross last Friday with notification that Millie's
560950 - treatments with Coumadin needs adjustment relative to her treatments
560951 - with capecitabine (Xeloda).
560953 -         ..
560954 -        [On 061110 doctor's list of current medications incorrect not
560955 -        listing Coumadin, and also does not list antibiotics for
560956 -        cellulitus, Lovenox, also, for PE, Procrit is not listed for
560957 -        anemia (low energy) to redress low blood counts for hemoglobin,
560958 -        Tums is not listed for GERD. ref SDS D6 SE86
560960 -         ..
560961 -        [On 061024 case study medical practice computer access limited
560962 -        even with everything on the computer, people can't find details
560963 -        stored in parts of the computer (software modules) that are not
560964 -        frequently used. ref SDS 0 JD9L
560966 -         ..
560967 -        [On 061112 Doctor Seier found patient history on 061027
560968 -        prepared by lead ER physician, and this assisted diagnosis and
560969 -        treatment for cellulitus relapse on 061112 ref SDS D7 XS5J;
560970 -        patient history of other doctors treating Millie for cellulitus
560971 -        beginning on 061027 under Kaiser's team care practice was not
560972 -        available. ref SDS D7 5L6H
560974 -  ..
560975 - This aligns with understandings from the primary care physician on
560976 - 061020 who was dissappointed that common access to patient medications
560977 - in Kaiser's computer system is not sufficient for coordination between
560978 - doctors in Oncology and staff in the Coagulation Treatment Clinic.
560979 - ref SDS D5 YQ8J  Similar problem occurs with omission of vitals and
560980 - other details in the medical chart that are harder to access on the
560981 - computer, cited the same day on 061020. ref SDS D5 ET5J
560983 -  ..
560984 - Frustrations with computer access problems is shown on 061012 by the
560985 - study on continuing failure of analysts to make correct comparisons
560986 - with prior medical tests for trend analysis to discover emerging
560987 - problems in time for effective treatment. ref SDS D3 2935
560989 -  ..
560990 - Frustrations from incorrect listing of patient medications is shown on
560991 - 061020 by primary care physician omitting treatment with Coumadin for
560992 - pulmonary embolism, prescribed 3 weeks earlier on 061002. ref SDS D5
560993 - SE86
560995 -  ..
560996 - This further aligns with the long delay of over 2 years discovering on
560997 - 060711 that the biopsy on 040419 was tested for status change,
560998 - ref SDS B6 SW7O, but this was not known to the primary care physician
560999 - nor to the surgeon in Kaiser's Oakland office, because the part of
561000 - Kaiser's computer system that shows status change required additional
561001 - training and experience to use.  A long list of similar incidents
561002 - working with Kaiser's computer system, as further reported on 060711,
561003 - ref SDS B6 5Y5J, explains why Kaiser's Team Care practice is essential
561004 - for effective control, collaboration, and coordination in this case
561005 - between Oncology and the Coagulation Treatment Clinic.

760403 - Computer Access Case Study Details Not Readily Available
760404 - Paperless Office Everything on the Computer Reduces Access
760405 -
760406 - Computer systems today have a lot of information which people cannot
760407 - access because infrequent requirements prevent getting training,
760408 - experience, and confidence with skills using technology to find
760409 - critical details in time for performing daily work.
760411 -  ..
760412 - Kaiser illustrates this point.  There is software for a great many
760413 - fields of practice and for managing the organization.  Doctors in
760414 - oncology are highly skilled using the oncology program.  Pharmacists
760415 - are skilled creating and accessing prescriptions for medicine.
760416 - Imaging technicians and medical anlaysts are skilled with records
760417 - management and manipulation of scan files.  Orthopedics, Internal
760418 - medicine, surgery, laboratory doctors and staff are excellent using
760419 - Kaiser's lab management software.  Finance, Engineering, Buildings and
760420 - Grounds, Cafeteria, and other support departments have software tools
760421 - and data for performing their work.  Everything is stored on the
760422 - computer, as planned by Bush, Engelbart, et al. ref SDS 0 UN6L

760425 - People learn to quickly access 80% - 90% of what they need.  The other
760426 - 10% - 20% is needed so infrequently and occurs across a broad range
760427 - that skills to access this part cannot be maintained.  Practitioners
760428 - face a dilemma of ignoring a small part of the record as unnecessary
760429 - overkill, or asking someone for help on rare occassions when needed.
760430 - Since problems from ignorance about knowledge of causation are usually
760431 - deferred and often transferred to others, people get comfortable
760432 - saving time, expediting, and avoiding embarrassment by not investing
760433 - time to get the 10% - 20% of information that is not as fast and easy
760434 - to get as the information they normally use.  This comfort level rises
760435 - over time, because there seems to be no harm nor penalty for relying
760436 - on ignorance.
