Objectives:To improve postdischarge telephone follow-up in the context of chronic disease management (peripheral artery disease), in a vascular surgery service.Introduction:Patients with chronic diseases, such as peripheral artery disease, present a higher risk of complications and greater constraints regarding their adherence to treatment, leading to an increasing mortality rate and decreased functional capacity. Comprehensive discharge planning plus postdischarge telephone follow-up may reduce 30-day re-hospitalization rates.Methods:The project used the JBI audit and feedback methodological approach to implement the best available evidence into practice. Two audit criteria were used: existence of comprehensive discharge planning and timely telephone follow-up. A baseline audit was conducted, followed by analysis of barriers, which led to the implementation of several strategies, namely, a targeted training program, the development of educational resources and standardized procedures for the discharge process, and postdischarge telephone follow-up.Results:Results from the baseline and first follow-up audits showed improvement for both criteria. Compliance for criterion 1 (comprehensive discharge planning, including postdischarge telephone follow-up) increased from 0% to 40.7%, and for criterion 2 (patient is followed up by telephone within 2 weeks of discharge) increased from 0% to 44.4%. These two criteria sustained improvements in the second follow-up audit: compliance increased to 45% (criterion 1) and 60% (criterion 2).Conclusions:This implementation project contributed to the optimization of the chronic disease management, including improved compliance with discharge planning and early postdischarge telephone follow-up.
