Introduction
� Limitations in medical communication
�Lengthy reports, obscure essential clinical issues
�Lack of standardized discharge summary formats
�Lack of clear organization
�Unstructured, with inadequate information capture
Introduction
� Siebens Domain Model Management SDMM (2001)
�Provides a framework for organizing the documentation of care
�Consistent with Engel’s biopsychosocial model (1977) and Stineman’s biopsycho-ecological model (2007)
�Organizes patient’s health-related strengths, problems and issues into four domains
See final slide for references.
SDMM: The Four Domains
I. Medical/Surgical Issues
• Symptoms
• Diseases
• Prevention
II. Mental Status/ Emotions/ Coping
• Communication
• Cognition
• Emotions
• Coping/ Behavioral Symptoms
• Spirituality
• Personal Preferences/ Advance Directives
III. Physical Function
• Basic ADLs: Home Mobility, Self Care
• Intermediate ADLs: Medication management, meals, community mobility
• Advanced ADLs: Vocational, Avocational
IV. Living Environment
• Physical - Type of Home
• Social - Family Support/ Coping
• Financial & Community Resources

Hypotheses
1) Reliable and valid scoring of SDMM domains and sub-domains in discharge summaries is possible
2) Traditional inpatient discharge summaries do not adequately communicate important aspects of rehabilitation care
3) Use of the SDMM will improve organization and documentation of rehabilitation care through increased capture of relevant care items
Methods
� Setting: Acute Rehabilitation Unit
� Design: retrospective chart review
� In July 2008, residents started using the SDMM in the inpatient rehabilitation unit
� Discharge summaries randomly chosen from final week of residents’ inpatient rotation
� 20 traditional (historical controls) reports
� 20 SDMM reports
� scored using SDMM Documentation Review Form
Methods
� The research team established scoring rules and a scoring methodology for the SDMM Documentation Review Form
� Review form Inter-rater reliability established with % agreement and Fleiss’ kappa statistic
� Global Scores and Individual Domain Scores (4) reflecting % of items present were calculated for each report
Methods
� Descriptive statistics (mean, standard deviation) for these 5 scores compared between traditional and SDMM reports using 2-group t-test
� Main outcome measures: Global Scores and Domain Scores
� Yes = mentioned
� No = not mentioned
� N/A = not applicable
Documentation Review Form
Documentation Review Form
� Yes = mentioned
� No = not mentioned
� N/A = not applicable

IV. Living Environment
Results
� Improvement in overall information captured, the Global Score, was observed (34% to 53% for Traditional vs. SDMM reports, respectively; p<.0001)
� Information captured within each domain was also improved from traditional reports
Results: Individual Items
� In Domain I, 1 item showed significant change: mention of lifestyle risk factors (29% to 72%)
� In Domain II, increased mention of cognitive/communication status (35 to 80%), emotions (15 to 60%), and coping (5 to 45%)
� Power of attorney for health and medical directive remained low, but showed some increase in SDMM reports (5 to 15% and 5 to 30%, respectively)
Results: Individual Items
� In Domain III, items discussed regularly in both report types: basic ADLs (95% to 100%) and home mobility (90 to 84%)
� Improvement seen in IADLs (5% to 35%) and community mobility (15 to 30%), but all other items remained <15%
� In Domain IV, most items 20% or lower except increased mention of physical home setting (35 to 56%) and social supports (45 to 75%)
� Very few items scored as not applicable (4% in traditional, 7.5% in SDMM reports)
Conclusions
� Reliable and valid scoring of SDMM domains was possible through physician use of standardized scoring form
� Traditional rehabilitation discharge summaries lacked information relevant to rehabilitation care
Conclusions
� Traditional reports emphasized medical aspects of hospitalization, but often lacked discussion on mental status, emotions, coping, physical function, living environment
� Using the SDMM in discharge summaries led to significant increase in overall information capture, with the greatest increase in areas of mental status/emotion/coping and environment
Implications
� SDMM can serve as teaching framework for rehabilitation residents and as a simple checklist of topics to be considered in documentation
� Facilitates efficient and comprehensive organization of relevant information
� Improve patient care, safety, and communication between providers
