SSI Prevention - How Are We Doing?Direct OR Observations Sue Barnes, RN, BSN, CIC National IP Leader, Kaiser Permanente
Overview and objectives OVERVIEW: This session will describe how inpatient and outpatient surgery centers are doing relative to surgical infection prevention based on a small number of direct case observations. Prevention in all phases of the surgical journey will be addressed: pre-operative, intra-operative and Post-operative. The uncharted arena of surgical technique and infection risk will also be considered. OBJECTIVES Share project overview Review observed compliance with standard infection prevention efforts, share best practices and challenge areas Share my ongoing dialogue with surgeons and periop staff – what do they know that we don’t know about surgical procedures and infection risk?
Project overview Preparation Request permission to observe cases from surgeon colleagues Schedule with OR managers – inform local IP – request time for debrief View UTube video clips of procedures Observations Use checklist to guide observations – take notes: best practices, questions, opportunities for improvement Ask surgeons and periop staff their perspective regarding aspects of surgical procedure, technique and SSI risk – their concerns After the case Debrief post op with OR manager and IP (separately or together at their convenience) Sent thank you to surgeon, team and their supervisors with summary of best practices Sent private list of challenge areas – “your eyes only” to surgeon, IP and OR manager – professional courtesy My next steps 4 cases observed to date (general, OB/GYN, cardiac, plastics). I plan to continue next year with other high risk procedures including: bariatric, ortho, eye, spine
OR Observations “Almost no matter what experimental conditions were imposed, increases in output occurred….The investigators had obviously influenced the subjects’ behavior merely by studying that behavior, and this phenomenon has become known as the Hawthorne effect.” (Kelly Shaver, Principles of Social Psychology, 2nd ed., Winthrop, 1981)
Questions posed • Pre Op: • Hair removal • Skin prep • Hand scrub • Intra Op: • Aseptic technique • Antibiotic weight based dosing and re-dosing • Irrigation • What are you concerned about? • Post Op: • Skin closure • Patient education • Drains, dressings

Surgical technique and SSI risk: Questions posed to and by surgeons
Electronic devices that discharge air, or are designed to blow air in OR – a risk?
Intra-operative Irrigation Pour? Bulb syringe? Jet?
Intra-operative Irrigation NS, RL, CHG, antibiotics?
What about the operative wound – size of incision, dead space, exposed adipose tissue?
What’s the benefit of the wound edge protector – when to apply?
