Literature: Elite CQI Module

Text about the Elite CQI Module by ImageTrend, describing its continuous quality improvement features for EMS and Fire, with sections on review synchronization and agency-driven quality.

Gain greater control and transparency of the review of quality care and performance with ImageTrend Elite’s Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) module, included with ImageTrend Elite for EMS and Fire.

Each reviewer and incident has its own status, allowing administrators to track each throughout the review process.

 

Synchronized Review across EMS and Fire

The module provides the same CQI functionality in Fire as in EMS. This allows for consistent review and reporting across both services, as well as facilitates better data collection, consistency, and improved service delivery.

 

Agency Drive Quality

Questions developed by your agency or department are used to prompt reviewers during the evaluation of the incident. When an issue is discovered, the reviewer can send messages to pertinent crew or other users for resolution.

 

Example Questions

  • Initial cardiac rhythm noted?
  • Termination of resuscitation noted?
  • Spontaneous circulation noted?
  • Defibrillation initiated in an appropriate time frame?
  • Narrative entered and complete?

 

CQI Forms

Because only portions of the form are displayed for reviewers in a read-only format, they can focus on just the necessary information to complete their task, which both saves time and minimizes exposure of sensitive patient data.

 

CQI Score

The CQI score, visible on a CQI review, uses the module’s rules and the incident data to indicate if the incident fulfilled performance measures. For example, the rules can assign scoring based on whether a 12 lead was done within 10 minutes of on-scene time.
