By Dr Irfan Ahmed<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0(T:\u00a0<\/strong><\/em>@Irfan_sem<\/em><\/strong><\/a>)<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Over the last week, I have had time to reflect on the twitter feedback from my first blog. <\/a><\/strong>I must confess to feeling slightly overwhelmed, the \u201c#softtissuegap\u201d is trending, and has certainly outgrown its initial aim.<\/p>\n

One thread debated ‘if SEM should focus on acute care, secondary MSK clinics or even the private sector?’ I have to admit the answers to these questions were not in my initial Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) cycle, but I would welcome the STIM model being adopted in all three!<\/p>\n

Planning a new STIM clinic <\/strong><\/p>\n

The initial pitch was simple; I was a new SEM registrar with a bright idea, (I think!). For what we lack in numbers, the SEM community more than makes up for in enthusiasm. Perhaps if we had some evidence-based \u201csoft tissue\u201d pathways, we could amplify our footprint. Take the \u201cOttawa rules\u201d ankles pathway1<\/sup>, something short and snappy, that could be integrated \u201cup and down\u201d the NHS.\u00a0In addition to this, the \u201csoft tissue\u201d pathways might help allied health professionals treat & screen patients. The location of the pathway was more accidental than thoughtful, I was based in Emergency Department (ED) at the time. So that\u2019s where the journey began.<\/p>\n

Designing a pathway<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our first pathway focussed on \u201cacute knee\u201d injuries, a tricky one where it\u2019s not always easy to identify the injuries that need to be seen. More often than not, the presentation is varied along with the detail of any referral letter. Some patients come armed with a fresh MRI report from the ski slopes, others (less helpfully) a note from the GP detailing a \u201cswollen clicking knee.\u201d Now, if we make the inclusion criteria too broad, we risk being inundated, too tight and we could miss a few. Get it just right though, and our first contact practitioners would be left with something useful and easy to understand.<\/p>\n

Improving the patient journey <\/strong><\/p>\n

One retrospective study, (at a typical NHS District General Hospital) revealed that only 14.4%2<\/sup> of surgically reconstructed ACL injuries were diagnosed at first contact. In addition to this patient consulted a median average of three clinicians2<\/sup> and waited 13 weeks for the final diagnosis2<\/sup>. All the while hobbling around on an unstable\/wobbly knee and risking secondary meniscal tears.<\/p>\n

This study made me think surely, we can do better: what if we could reduce the time to diagnosis and number of clinicians seen for acute knee injuries? The sell was a better patient experience and a solution to bridge the \u201csoft tissue gap\u201d.<\/p>\n

Fixing the problem however was less clear, often the knee is too swollen to examine on first presentation, and MSK injuries understandably take a lesser priority in the ED. Plus I needed a pathway that worked across the department in the hands of a nurse, paramedic, physiotherapist GP or ED doctor; 365 days a year, 24\/7.<\/p>\n

\u201cCharing Cross – Acute Knee Pathway\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

In order to overcome some of these challenges, we adopted a standardised \u201cacute knee\u201d pathway (Figure 1). Our theory was simple, early immobilisation, good acute phase management, and when the knee was ripe, bring them back for a diagnostic examination. Once the knee was calm, we could then mentally prepare the patient and get the ball rolling with evidence-based rehab3<\/sup>: quadriceps isometrics exercises, straight leg raises, and establishing a decent range of motion.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Evaluation <\/strong><\/p>\n

Evaluating a new pathway is always tricky, I mean it depends on who\u2019s paying the bill and who\u2019s making the savings, right? A reduced time to diagnosis (Figure 2), might be enough proof in the world of business; where (time=money) but in an acute NHS trust the lines are often blurred.<\/p>\n

Our small pilot has shown financial promise, but even more encouraging for me were the intangibles. Patient satisfaction, engagement with extended scope practitioners and raising the profile of soft tissue injuries in the ED. We hope the \u201cCharing Cross – Acute Knee Pathway\u201d can be adopted in other settings and look forward to publishing data on further pathways later this year.<\/p>\n
