The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) is carrying out its congressional mandate to establish a patient-safety research and development initiative to help health care providers reduce medical errors and improve patient safety. In September 2003, AHRQ entered into a four-year contract with the RAND Corporation to serve as the Patient Safety Evaluation Center for its patient safety initiative. The evaluation center is responsible for performing a longitudinal evaluation of the full scope of AHRQ2s patient safety activities and for providing regular feedback to support the continuing improvement of this initiative over the four-year project period. This report covers the period October 2003 through September 2004. It is the second of what will be four annual reports prepared by RAND during the formative evaluation. It builds on the preceding evaluation report, which covers the period October 2002 through September 2003. This report provides an update on the policy context that frames the AHRQ patient safety initiative, documents the evolution and current status of the priorities and activities being undertaken in the initiative, and lays out a framework and possible measures for evaluating the effects of the initiative on patient outcomes and stakeholders other than patients. Implications of the evaluation findings are discussed with respect to future AHRQ policy, programming, and research, and suggestions are presented for strengthening AHRQ activities as the initiative moves forward. The content and format of each report are designed to provide a stable structure for the longitudinal evaluation; the results of each year2s assessment contribute to a cumulative record of the initiative2s evolution. The contents of this report will be of interest to national and state policymakers, health care organizations and clinical practitioners, patient-advocacy organizations, health researchers, and others with responsibilities for ensuring that patients are not harmed by the health care they receive.

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality's (AHRQ) FY 2004 Annual Report highlights the research and financial management activities and accomplishments of the Agency and its employees. This report highlights the Agency's programmatic and financial accomplishments. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ)—one of 12 agencies of the Department of Health and Human Services—has a leadership role in finding answers to difficult questions that challenge the Nation's health care system. AHRQ's focus is on getting research results into the hands of those who can put it to practical use as rapidly as possible. This report demonstrates our resolve to improve the quality and delivery of health care services provided in this Nation, as well as our continued commitment to assure sound investments in programs that will make a difference. AHRQ's research is based on the needs of users—patients, clinicians, health system leaders, and policymakers. The Agency's research provides the scientific foundation for the country's efforts to improve the quality, safety, effectiveness, and efficiency of health care. AHRQ supports the work of health services researchers at the Nation's leading academic centers through extramural grants and contracts, and maintains a rigorous intramural research program that collects and analyzes data to understand changes in health care quality, cost, use, and access. The Agency also supports efforts to develop the tools, knowledge, and information used by the public and private sectors to measure and improve health care quality. AHRQ recognizes that reducing medical errors and improving patient safety is critically important for enhancing the quality of health care. Developing the nation's health information technology infrastructure is integral to delivering safe, high quality health care services. Therefore, in concert with the Department's 10-year plan to transform health care delivery through the use of health information technology, the Agency began a series of projects aimed at increasing the adoption of information technology and speeding the transformation of health care services in America. These projects will provide insight into how best to use health information technologies to improve patient safety by reducing medication errors; bridging the communication gap between primary care physicians, specialists, and patients; and reducing duplicative and unnecessary testing. The growth in information technology and the demand for the best possible evidence to guide health care decisions will result in improved delivery of health care. Every day it becomes more apparent that AHRQ's research is making a difference, as more patients, clinicians, health system leaders, and policymakers seek evidence to inform their health care decisions. Long-standing programs continue to inform health care decisions made at all levels of the health care system, while newer programs are producing findings that promise to have a significant impact on the health care system.

RAND has contracted with the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) to perform a longitudinal evaluation of the full scope of AHRQ's patient safety activities and to provide regular feedback to support the continuing improvement of the initiative over a four-year evaluation period. This interim report presents an update on the work RAND has performed during FY 2007 for the practice diffusion assessment. The assessment encompasses five specific analytic components: (1) development of a survey questionnaire to use for assessing adoption of the safe practices endorsed by the National Quality Foundation, (2) community studies of patient safety practice adoption and related activities, (3) continued analysis of trends in patient outcomes related to safety, (4) lessons from hospitals' use of patient safety tools developed by AHRQ, and (5) a second fielding of the hospital adverse event reporting system survey.

This User’s Guide is intended to support the design, implementation, analysis, interpretation, and quality evaluation of registries created to increase understanding of patient outcomes. For the purposes of this guide, a patient registry is an organized system that uses observational study methods to collect uniform data (clinical and other) to evaluate specified outcomes for a population defined by a particular disease, condition, or exposure, and that serves one or more predetermined scientific, clinical, or policy purposes. A registry database is a file (or files) derived from the registry. Although registries can serve many purposes, this guide focuses on registries created for one or more of the following purposes: to describe the natural history of disease, to determine clinical effectiveness or cost-effectiveness of health care products and services, to measure or monitor safety and harm, and/or to measure quality of care. Registries are classified according to how their populations are defined. For example, product registries include patients who have been exposed to biopharmaceutical products or medical devices. Health services registries consist of patients who have had a common procedure, clinical encounter, or hospitalization. Disease or condition registries are defined by patients having the same diagnosis, such as cystic fibrosis or heart failure. The User’s Guide was created by researchers affiliated with AHRQ’s Effective Health Care Program, particularly those who participated in AHRQ’s DEcIDE (Developing Evidence to Inform Decisions About Effectiveness) program. Chapters were subject to multiple internal and external independent reviews.
