UW Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine
GoalsQuality improvement initiatives focused
on improving provider-patient communication are bountiful.
However, less emphasis is placed on interdepartmental communication.
UW Department of Anesthesiology and Pain Medicine (APM)
156 Attendings◦38 HMC, 60 UWMC, 54 SCH, 10 VAMC
135 Residents and Fellows85 CRNAs◦37 HMC, 37 UWMC, 11 SCH
30 OR Technicians◦11 HMC, 11 UWMC, 8 SCH
73 ORs*
◦25 HMC, 25 UWMC, 15 SCH, 8 VA*=Does not include off-site (NORA) cases, SLU/Research Staff, or Adminstration
ObjectivesI.Create a single, high-fidelity workspace which is
routinely maintained through a shared/collaborative approach.
Ensure the accuracy and detail of individual contact information
Expand the directory to include service lines and OR phone numbers
II.Streamline the conversion of job title-specific
smartphone files from the Departmental Directory.
Objectives
We propose the use of Obvibase and discuss collaborative workflow modifications to yield a high-fidelity, facile, and portable contact database for our institution.
InterventionsI. Obvibase - collaborative editing
of a single, central database
II. Dropbox – distribution/sharing of custom Contacts reports from Obvibase
III. Google Form – reporting of editions (additions/deletions/incorrect entries) from the end-user to the Obvibase editors
I. Shared Workspace – Obvibase:
A Google-Supported Online DB
The DB equivalent of Gmail
Obvibase + Google =Reliable & Unbreakable

Current Status – Questions of Concern
*2 = How often / WHO makes the changes (additions, deletions, edits)
*3 = How often is SpinFusion updated from the Master Spreadsheet?
*4 = How often are the UWMC/HMC Paging Operators updated from the SpdSht?
*1 = How often is the Master Spreadsheet info updated from the UW Directory?
Current Status - Problems No clear division of responsibility regarding updates and edits Distribution: relies solely on email distribution (high
noise:signal ratio) and updated website (which many people do not access)
Multiple sources of contact data input◦ Weekly Departmental Sheets +◦ …Monthly Ipage/Dept. Directory Distributions +◦ …Paging Operator’s Contact data
Institutional use of SpinFusion to produce location-specific contact sheets◦ assumes that SpinFusion automatically updates AND is perfectly in
sync with the Master Spreadsheet iPage (text-paging app) and the monthly dept. iPage file, can
ONLY be used by iPhone users.
Current Status - DataMarch 2015 – Request for updates◦30 update requests for incorrect information◦25 update requests for incomplete
information
Examples of incorrect data◦Aalap Shah’s pager # - incorrect x 7 months◦Dr. Crowder’s contact info
The Plan
1. Move Port Master Spreadsheet to Shared Dropbox Folder Shared Obvibase Online DB
The Plan
2. Decide Appropriate Columns• Last Name• First Name• Email• Pager• Cell Phone• Home Phone• Spectra Link• Office (accessory)
The Plan
3. Make additions in red to Master Spreadsheet based on institution-specific data (done)Create dedicated columns for Start Date / End Date in Obvibase
The Plan
4. Within the same Master Spreadsheet File, create sub-spreadsheet that are synced with Master spreadsheetCreate 2 Sort Columns:
Sort1 = UWMC, HMC, RSVLT, SCH, SLU, VA
Sort2 = ADMIN, ATTENDING, CRNA, FELLOW, OTHER, RESEARCH, RESIDENT, TECH
Shared Dropbox Folder
5. Determine share permissionsEditors: ◦Chris/Natalie/Michelle/Kay/Andrea◦Aalap
