Objectives • Personal Journey in ID • Personal Journey with QI • What is QI? • What are Quality Measures? • Methods of QI – PDSA/Lean/Six Sigma • Applying PDSA Cycle
Rate of VAP Rate of UTI Rate of BSI Rate of SSI Rate of MRSA incidence Outcome Measures inInfection Prevention
Rate for hand washing compliance Antibiotic in a timely manner (within 1 hour) to reduce SCIP VAP bundle followed? Catheter days Process Measures inInfection Prevention
Surgical Care ImprovementProject Performance Measures - Process • Surgical infection prevention • Antibiotics • Administration within one hourbefore incision • Use of antimicrobialrecommended in guideline • Discontinuation within24 hours of surgery end • Glucose control in cardiac surgery patients • Proper hair removal • Normothermia in colorectal surgery patients
Measure the rates Educate others on how to reduce the rates, i.e., hand hygiene, prophylaxis antibiotics Encourage others to do interventions – hope the strategy works Result – rates remains the same. Infection Preventionist’s Job
If an outbreak occurs, then take action!!! In fact – the present rates are an outbreak We never had the tools to intervene Infection Preventionist’s Job
Goal is reducing infections Strategy is QI Tool is PDSA cycle Reducing infections is the Goal VAP and BSI are the outcome measures Hand Hygiene and bundles(checklist is the process measure) What is QI? PDSA?
Model for Improvement What are we trying to accomplish? How will we know that a change is an improvement? What change can we make that will result in improvement? Act Plan Study Do PDSA: The Wheel of Improvement
4 Elements of Change • Multidisciplinary Teams • Staff ownership • Flow Meetings • Administrative support • Bundles • Evidence based medicine • Culture of Change • Horizontal decision-making
IMPACT: Patient OutcomesCan Improve The overall surgical infection rate fell 27%, from 2.28% (215 infections among 9435 surgical cases) in the first 3 months to 1.65% (158 infections among 9584 cases) between the first and the last 3 reporting months. Dellinger EP, et al. Am J Surg.2005;190:9–15.
Adverse Events Per ICU Day* Multidisciplinary Rounds Hand Hygiene Protocol Vent Bundles ICU Medical Director Central Line Bundles UTI Bundles * A list of event triggers that have been shown to be indicators of potential quality of care issues (See trigger tool)
Average Cost Per ICU Episode 8.6% Decrease 15.6% Decrease
