JCIA, NICE and ASA standards on sedation IX. Audit Implementation Plan Part B I. Reflective Learning II. References Part A: Healthcare Research Audit Introduction This paper is a proposal for an audit of the sedation practices and procedures of a health care facility. Sedation is a process by which a patient’s irritability, pain and agitation are reduced using a special type of drugs. In many cases sedation is applied to accompany medical and diagnostic procedures. Among the common sedative drugs are ketamine, fentanyl and propofol. Among the procedures during which sedation is applied are minor surgeries, cosmetic surgeries and removal of teeth. Different methods of sedation are ideal for different medical conditions, treatment and diagnosis. The sedation methods are inhalation sedation, intravenous (IV) sedation and inhalation sedation. From the use and implications of sedation procedures, it is apparent that it is such an important medical or diagnostic procedures that health care practitioners ought to value. It is for these reasons that professional organisations such as the JCIA (Joint Commission International Accreditation), NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) and the ASA (American Association of Anesthesia) have come up with standards by which health care institutions, practitioners and governments can offer, evidence-based, patient- and results-oriented services may be provided. These standards are equally important for sedation procedures as they are for other practices in the health care fraternity (Brown et al., 90). To help governments, institutions and individual practitioners, NICE and the ASA carry out training. counseling and publication services for purposes of helping stakeholders improve health care quality, safety and efficiency. The other key function of the NICE and the ASA is to outline standards for health service facility accreditation. Thus, the core goals of NICE and the ASA are improvement of safety of high-alert medications, access to care and continuity of care, provision of ongoing care from multiple clinics, upholding of patient and family rights and patient assessment and quality improvement and patient safety. This paper proposes an audit of the sedation procedures of a health care facility. In this context, the evaluation, measurement and research of not only the sedation procedures but also entire health care management will be emphasised. The objectives of the audit are: to identify and promote good sedation practices, to achieve improvements in patient care, to avail information on the effectiveness of sedation services, to emphasise sedation problems and propose solutions and to improve team work and communication in the health care sector (Dartford &amp. Gravesham 3). For quality and comfortable sedation procedures, NICE and the ASA expects institutions and individual health care practitioners to follow certain standards. The key goals of these standards are to ensure health and social care practitioners make decisions based on the latest evidence and best practices and to find information on quality services and health care. Third, the standards require health providers to quickly and easily examine their performance and their improvement standards. The other function of the standards is to assure clients that the services they receive are of the right quality, patient-centered and cost-effective. The NICE standards are contained in the new Clinical Commissioning Group Outcome Indicator Set (CCGOIS).
