Pre-ASM Workshop

CORE Workshop

So you’ve been flagged as an ICU outlier and the CEO wants to meet. The clock is ticking and you need to make sense of the data to find a solution. Where do you start? What do you do?

Using a fictional case example, you will analyse ICU benchmark data from the Adult Patient Database, Critical Care Resources Survey and Critical Health Resource Information System to investigate possible contributing factors to explain your outlier status. You and your team will dive into the data, formulate a plan of what you’ll say to the CEO, then plead your case. What will be your pitch?

This workshop will enhance your ability to analyse ANZICS registry benchmark reports and examine factors that affect data quality to monitor ICU performance.

If you’re an ICU clinician, data manager or leader with an interest in using data for quality improvement, this workshop is for you.

Learning Objectives:

  • Demystify the ANZICS CORE Outlier Management Program, discuss the lessons learnt from 30 years of outlier analyses, and the exciting future directions of the program.
  • Enhance skills and knowledge in monitoring ICU performance through testing your ability to interpret ICU benchmark reports.
  • Discuss and demonstrate strategies in how to present ICU data to hospital executives.
  • Explore factors that affect data quality and risk of death predictions.
  • Discuss the Australian and New Zealand Risk of Death (ANZROD) Model.

Target Audience:

ICU clinicians, data managers and leaders with an interest in using data for quality improvement.

Speakers:

A/Prof David Pilcher, Ms. Shaila Chavan, Ms. Jennifer Hogan

The ANZICS Clinical Leadership Program

Clinical Leadership in ICU: Culture, Communication and Resilience

7th – 8th April 2025

Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre

Intensive care is a complex clinical environment providing unique challenges not experienced in other healthcare settings.  Through this lens, the ANZICS Clinical Leadership Program provides the opportunity for emerging clinical leaders to build tools and frameworks that will refine their leadership purpose, develop skills to negotiate workplace challenges and explore strategies to influence organisational change.

Partnered by behavioural strategy firm Neuro, this module on culture, communication and leadership is delivered as a two-day workshop with 20 hours of online learning and is part of the bespoke clinical leadership program developed by a multidisciplinary faculty.  Early career clinicians working in intensive care across all specialties are invited to attend.    

Program at a Glance:

At the conclusion of this module participants will:

  1. Define and discuss the pillars of clinical leadership in an ICU environment,
  2. Explore how leaders influence ICU culture and identify behaviours and characteristics that contribute to positive culture in the workplace,
  3. Examine the individual, team and system dynamics that impact on ICU culture and analyse the role of a ‘safety culture’ in leading and managing organisational performance,
  4. Design a strategy to enhance the psychological safety of an ICU team and formulate a collaborative plan to approach conflict resolution within the workplace, or
  5. Identify a leadership challenge within an intensive care setting and develop an action plan to facilitate its resolution.

Who should attend:

Early career Intensive Care clinicians (doctors, nurses, allied health) who are new, emerging or aspiring leaders. Clinicians not in a formal leadership role are welcome to attend.
