11. Clinical Improvements
NICE updated clinical guidelines in 2008 to recommend that people
with diabetes have a urine albumin: creatinine ratio (ACR) test
annually. Urine ACR test is used to detect and monitor kidney disease
Early detection and treatment can prevent or delay the progression of
chronic kidney disease (CKD), reduce or prevent the development of
complications and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease
In 2010 the NDA reported that 65 per cent of people with diabetes were
receiving the NICE recommended Urine ACR test. The NDA initiated a
programme of communication and improvement to highlight these
issues. In 2 years the percentage of people with diabetes receiving the
test rose to 75 per cent
This means that an additional 200,000 people with diabetes are
receiving this test that identifies and monitors kidney disease
12. National Lung Cancer Audit
Audit Finding: not enough patients with small cell lung
cancer receive chemotherapy
Recommendation: chemotherapy rates below 65 per cent for
this group of patients should be reviewed
West Suffolk NHS Trust
This trust identified that patients were waiting too long for
treatment and therefore the cancer was too advanced for
chemotherapy
An alert system was established to flag up patients with the
very aggressive small cell lung cancer, which allowed fast
track booking of oncology appointments
14. West Suffolk NHS Trust
The Trust then followed this up by assessing whether
this reduction in waiting times meant that more
patients were able to receive treatment before they
deteriorated and became too ill for chemotherapy
The treatment rates for Small Cell Lung Cancer were
between 50 and 60 per cent prior to improvement
activities
Following the quality interventions this increased to
over 70 per cent
