The analysis also enables clinical performance and resource utilisation to be compared for the same unit in different periods, to be able to describe the changes and possible phenomena related to those changes.

Both aspects make ICU spaces complex to administer, either in managing resources or strategies that seek to improve their clinical outcomes.</p><p id="par0055" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As for other areas of a hospital, there are many ways for the ICU to evaluate the cost of healthcare interventions and its impact on the outcomes obtained.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0105"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,8–10</span></a> Given the diversity of methods and the complexity of defining the cost derived from the change in the health of an individual or group of individuals with different conditions, or even more, defining the monetary value of a life, often times the rationale for making these measurements is to self-assess the performance of an ICU over time. One example of a practical tool that has been successful due to its simplicity for measuring the performance of an ICU is the Rapoport method which combines clinical assessment (SCPI) with financial measurements (SRUI), enabling where improvements are required to be identified and graphically comparing performance with other ICUs.</p><p id="par0060" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although the resource utilisation index in the RICU (SRUI) is within an acceptable parameter (±2 SD, which is consistent with the average performance of its peers, i.e. 135 ICUs participating in Project IMPACT), its clinical performance is below standard. The costs alone give us an incomplete view of the overall performance of an ICU since units with sub-standard care can have lower resource utilisation and an inappropriately high mortality.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> Furthermore, resources in an ICU may be scarce or absent, which results in a deficient clinical performance. Resources should not be understood simply as supplies, since an ICU encompasses a structure, with a physical area, equipment (which includes supplies), and staff (human team), and the ways in which the staff carry out their actions (processes).</p><p id="par0065" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Yet the analysis conducted when adjusting the Rapoport method in 2007 did not find a significant correlation between costs and mortality (which means that an excessive use of resources is not necessary associated with exceptional clinical performance or vice versa), in the particular case of the RICU a trend has been observed that clinical performance improves when more resources are used, which could suggest that identifying areas of opportunity to inject resources may result in benefits.</p><p id="par0070" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Unlike the care models of units with good performance from Project IMPACT and Mexican units that have reported their results using the Rapoport method,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0130"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6,11,12</span></a> the RICU does not have critical care physicians available for care 24/7. In addition, the ratio of nursing staff and respiratory therapists who are part of the RICU multi-disciplinary team is deficient. Making sure healthcare staff resources coincide with patient needs is a key factor for quality of care in the ICU. Patient safety is put at risk when the patient:healthcare staff ratio exceeds certain limits and when the workload is excessive.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0165"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">13</span></a></p><p id="par0075" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Strategic planning, on the other hand, is essential for care in the intensive care unit to prosper, providing good patient care and enabling an efficient use of resources.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0170"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">14</span></a> The RICU has implemented its own quality of care management systems which have merited recognition in the international scientific media,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0175"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">15,16</span></a> a mid-term work plan (2014–2017), and a long-term vision. This suggests to us that the on-going efforts to improve care are present with strategies that are applied in high-performing units in Mexico and the United States. The RICU is currently implementing the strategies from the <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Bacteremia Zero</span><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0185"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">17</span></a> and <span class="elsevierStyleItalic">Pneumonia Zero</span><a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0190"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">18</span></a> projects, which have demonstrated excellent results in Europe and the U.S.,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0195"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">19</span></a> in addition to implementing a hand hygiene adherence program that promotes a culture of quality. The opportunities for improvement by implementing strategies that do not require large investments or complex technology are innumerable and the RICU is not ignorant of these efforts, which also include collaborations with similar units in Mexico.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0200"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">20</span></a> Moreover, in 2017 the RICU and the Department of Pulmonology are expected to move into a new physical area, a building to care for patients with cardiopulmonary conditions which is planned to have facilities with a design and equipment that are adapted to the current standards.</p><p id="par0080" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">There are some limitations to the presented analysis which deserve mention. First, to calculate the SCPI and SRUI the expected survival according to the SAPS-3 prediction model was used, and not that according to the MPM<span class="elsevierStyleInf">0</span>-III model as in the revised Rapoport method. It must be taken into account that the tool was only validated for the latter model. Even if the study population were eligible for the MPM model, the RICU has a unique population of patients with predominantly respiratory conditions (medical and surgical), in which the model calibrated for WHD could be inadequate. Second, nearly one fifth of the patients who died in the RICU did so within the first 48<span class="elsevierStyleHsp" style=""></span>h of their stay, which makes us think that patients who are too critically ill are admitted and that SAPS-3 may overestimate the expected survival (like other models). In that case, it would require a local validation of the prediction model to adjust it to the patient population cared for. Third, due to not knowing the proportion of patients who required mechanical ventilation in the first hour of admission to the RICU, the total proportion of patients on mechanical ventilation was used to calculate the SRUI. However, this aspect makes it so that SRUI is underestimated. Fourth, when the Rapoport method was adjusted in 2007, some speculations were proposed to explain why better survival was observed in the ICUs at that time compared with the original method 13 years earlier in 1994,<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0120"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">4</span></a> for example, the greater role of 24-h critical care physicians, the intervention of multidisciplinary teams in medical rounds, the implementation of a series of measures to improve the quality of care, and the pharmaceutical and technological advances, among others. These speculations may play a role 8 years after the last calibration of the Rapoport method. That is, a new calibration may now be necessary. Lastly, the results of the RICU performance cannot be compared with those obtained by other Mexican ICUs since the units that reported their analysis with the method did so before it had been calibrated [before 2007].</p></span><span id="sec0045" class="elsevierStyleSection elsevierViewall"><span class="elsevierStyleSectionTitle" id="sect0115">Conclusions</span><p id="par0085" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">Although the resource utilisation index in the RICU is within an acceptable parameter, a clinical performance below the standard is observed. Copying the care model of ICUs with good performance could be beneficial for the RICU to improve its performance. As the RICU has improvement programs in its protocols and processes, it mainly needs to copy aspects of the care model of other ICUs with good performance. Hiring specialised, multi-disciplinary staff for shifts, improving its physical structure and equipment, and reinforcing its processes, among others, are areas of opportunity.</p></span><span
