Ohio Perinatal Quality Collaborative (OPQC)
The Ohio Perinatal Collaboration to Improve Birth Data and Prematurity Outcomes is a creative approach to using
public health surveillance data (birth certificates) as a supplement to data collected from medical records to
serve as the metrics that can inform and accelerate perinatal quality improvement initiatives. The Ohio Perinatal
Quality Collaborative (OPQC), Ohio’s public/private partnership focused on improving health outcomes using
quality improvement science, has documented early successes in reducing late preterm scheduled deliveries
without medical indication in 20 delivery hospitals in Ohio. Spreading what works will be essential in reducing
prematurity and having a measurable impact on population health. This effort is state administered by investing
and partnering in OPQC where the improvement happens. Over many decades Ohio has relied heavily on birth
certificates as source of data to measure population-level changes over time, but only recently has turned to
them to measure improvements in health care and outcomes.

Why Are We Doing This?
• OPQC’s Mission: Improve Infant Health
• Through collaborative use of improvement
science methods, reduce preterm births
and improve outcomes of preterm
newborns in Ohio as soon as possible
• What Causes Perinatal & Infant Mortality?
• Preterm Birth
• Birth Defects
• SUID et al
Our Shared Vision
• Decrease prematurity and infant
•
mortality in Ohio
OPQC, ODH-Vital Statistics and OHA
• Using the PLAN-DO-STUDY-ACT cycle of
continuous quality improvement to facilitate
improved data collection to accurately
measure progress toward goal of reducing
non-medically indicated deliveries prior to 39
weeks gestation

“The focus of
healthcare for women
and infants over the
next century depends
on the quality of the
data collected by
those who fill out the
birth certificates.”
Obstetric Quality 2007
“ There are currently no uniformly
accepted measures of obstetrical quality.
Many traditional measures of obstetrical
quality are flawed and newer measures
are still undergoing necessary
validation.”
- Jennifer L. Bailit, MD, MPH

“It is acceptable to use data derived from vital
records reports received from state or local
departments of public health if they are
available and are directly derived from the
medical record with a process in place to
confirm their accuracy. If this is the case,
these may be used in lieu of the acceptable
data sources listed below.”

Effects of the Initial OPQC
39 Week Scheduled Birth Project
September 2008 March 2013
• 30,000 births shifted to 39-41 weeks
• Conservative estimate = 3% fewer
“near term” NICU admissions: N = 950
• 950 x $20,000 per NICU Admission =
• $19,000,000 savings in 4 ½ years
Lessons From the Initial 39 Week Project
• Create A Culture of Change
• Learn From All Participants
• Improve Communication
• Data Collectors, Data Users, Data Analysts
• OPQC = Data for You to Use, Not the Police
• Birth Certificate = A Q.I. Instrument
• More Training and More Cross Talk
• Use Greater Accuracy Promotes Use
• Rapid Turnaround Essential

Two reasons for inaccurate gestational age entry
1. Sometimes the gestational age is “rounded up” in IPHIS.
• Gestational age is NEVER TO BE ROUNDED UP; it is
recorded in completed weeks.
• For example, 38 weeks, and 5 days is properly termed 38
weeks.
2. Often there is no agreement re: where in the medical
record gestational age should be recorded; in addition,
varying gestational ages are found in the medical record.
• Consistent agreement regarding where in the medical
record the IPHIS variable for gestational age is found will
greatly increase your accuracy.

Differences from Charter and

*Change in measure from
36.0 - 38.6 weeks to 37.0-38.6
weeks gestation; more in
harmony with Joint
Commission, Leap Frog and
Ohio Hospital Care
Can You Do This In Your Hospital ?

• Adopt ACOG Guidelines
• Use a Scheduled Birth Form (ACOG or Site Specific)
• Document the Pregnancy Dating Method
• Document the Reasons for Scheduled Birth
• OPQC Is Not The Police = Start with Soft Stop
• Rapid Data Turnaround
• Frequent Group & Site PDSA’s
• Enthusiasm from Local Leaders
PDSA
• Plan
• Look at a particular aspect of project
• Review intervention options
• Plan implementation of intervention
• What do you predict will happen?
• Do
• Execute the intervention
• Study

• How did the intervention go?
• Did it go the way you expected?
• What was the outcome?
• Was the a measure?
• Act
• Accept
• Adopt
• Abandon

gestational age correctly
recorded in IPHIS all the time?
Essential Data Elements to Accurately
Document Gestational Age
• Earliest Ultrasound that documented GA
• Ideal CRL
• Best < 20 weeks gestation
• documentation by provider
• estimate of GA
• what it is based on

What We Are Doing
• Reviewed 10 charts: information in chart,
•
•
on the ODH facility worksheet and in
IPHIS.
Discovered: Missing/incorrect data in
numerous IPHIS fields.
Plan: Change the way data is collected and
review data prior to entering in to IPHIS.

Modules
1.
Why is the birth certificate important to the healthcare of women and newborn
infants?
Use of the birth certificate as a QI tool is discussed in detail in this Module.
2.
What are the variables in the Ohio birth certificate and what do they mean?
3.
Where are select birth certificate variables found in the medical record?
4.
How can I know if I have accurately entered data into IPHIS?
5.
How can I Improve the data entry processes at my hospital?
The importance of obtaining the correct gestational age is highlighted as well as
the “Bakers Dozen of the Most Important Variables,” with appropriate definitions
for each.
Select variables are highlighted as well as the need for collaboration between the
clinical and data abstraction teams.
This is the most technical of all the Modules, providing an overview of the IPHIS
software and the data checks within it. A suggested quality review of hospital’s
submissions is also covered.
This Module reviews the Model for Improvement, AIM statements, & PDSA’s.
Keys to Success
• Communication
• Don’t assume
• Consensus and key personnel buy-in
• Grit and determination
• Monitoring of efforts (DATA)
