Measure your progress and outcomes
To measure progress, TPP has partnered with the National Perinatal Information Center (NPIC) to provide an OB-specific AOI. Your participation includes pre- and post-training reports that track your progress and benchmark against other TPP-trained organizations. For example, at BIDMC, implementation of team training in 2002 had a notable impact. By 2004, BIDMC saw a 47% drop in the AOI among gestations under 37 weeks, and a 14% drop for gestations over 37 weeks. Improvement for the entire patient population was 16%. The graph above demonstrates the AOI outcomes for 8 TPP clients and BIDMC. While team training is still a fairly young initiative in many organizations, early indications consistently show a decrease in the AOI for TPP trained clients.
