  3. Background • The incidence of MRSA colonization and infections is increasing annually. • MRSA is associated with serious infections, increase hospital length of stay, patient morbidity and mortality, as well as increased cost of hospitalization. • In August, 2007 Illinois law mandated active surveillance for all ICU patients as well as all high risk non-ICU patients • Magnet Forces of Magnetism - Force 7,Quality Improvement: “The organization has structures and processes for the measurement of quality and programs for improving the quality of care and services within the organization” Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  4. Project Aim Statement • A multidisciplinary task force developed a program to screen ALL inpatients for MRSA upon admission (for the purpose of identifying them early), isolating them appropriately, and thereby limiting hospital associated MRSA transmission and infection. • The goal was to decrease the incidence of hospital acquired MRSA.

  5. Prior Pilot Interventions • Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) initiated active surveillance for all births, transfers in, and biweekly surveillance - January, 2005 • Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) initiated screening on admission and weekly surveillance for select patient populations (stay greater than 7 days, on ventilator greater than 5 days, dialysis) - June, 2005 Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  6. Pilot Interventions: SICU Rates from 3.7 → 0.7 75% REDUCTION SUSTAINED OVER TIME Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  7. Solutions Implemented • Plan: UNIVERSAL SCREENING of ALL INPATIENTS • MRSA Guidelines written, distributed and available on Loyola intranet under Policies • Details screening process • Decolonization treatment regimen outlined • PCR rapid testing machine - decreased testing time from 48 →2 hours • Videotape on MRSA education purchased • Original Loyola video developed outlining MRSA screening (from specimen collection, through lab processing to results reported) February,2008 Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  8. Solutions Implemented - Timeline • October 15, 2007: All ICU patients screened • November 27, 2007: All hospitalized patients screened • March 4th, 2008: Pre-op screening for elective surgery (PAT/SAC) • Additional Infectious Disease Clinics:January,2008 Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  9. Infection Control MRSA Program • Nursing Grand Rounds on MRSA • Surgical Grand Rounds on MRSA • Nurse Managers meeting on MRSA • Multiple MRSA-focused in-services, memos • Loyola Patient/Family MRSA Informational Brochures developed and now available on Loyola intranet visa Employee Resources • Loyola MRSA Educational Video for staff • MRSA Guidelines available on Loyola intranet • CD demonstrating technique for collection of MRSA nasal swab/screen Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  10. Results • INPATIENT: • Number of screens performed (Nov 27th-May 1st) >10,000 which is 88% of admissions • Number of positive screens (7%) • PREADMISSION TESTING • Number of screens performed (March 4th-May 1st) 1168 • Number positive screens (4%) Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  11. Universal MRSA Screening (all patients admitted to hospital) ICUMRSA Screening (all patients admitted to ICU) 6-Month pre-surveillance rate 0.5294 68% REDUCTION IN NOSOCOMIAL MRSA RATES ICU surveillance rate 0.3924 Universal surveillance rate 0.1713 Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only

  12. Next Steps • Emergency Department MRSA screeningfor all hospital admissions • Continued emphasison prevention of infection: • Hand washing, • Appropriateisolation and cohorting of patients • Environmental cleaning • Decolonizationof MRSA carriers Confidential: For Quality Improvement Purposes Only
