  5. FY 2008 2009caBSI Adult Patient Population New Policy Roll Out

  6. 2007- 2009 What was done? 2007 – 2009 Nearly 50 member committee organized into MD practice, RN practice, equipment. (Lots of hard work, lots of time) Much emphasis placed on development of best practice policy and guidelines for caBSI elimination with a focus on: Standardizing Insertion SIMs lab review, competency MD development standards Standardizing maintenance 100% RN policy and practice review, twice: ‘Task Focused’

Much emphasis placed on development of best practice policy and guidelines for caBSI elimination with a focus on: Standardizing Insertion SIMs lab review, competency MD development standards Standardizing maintenance 100% RN policy and practice review, twice: ‘Task Focused’ Results:Little to no progress !!

  8. New Plan: Fall 2009 Fall 2009 Commitment by Senior Leadership to eliminate Hospital Acquired Infections Infection Prevention Priority Initiatives defined CaBSI CaUTI VAP

  9. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI)Team Appointment The Team was appointed by Senior Leadership with the authority and responsibility to influence, ensure, and be accountable to best practice principles regarding central line placement and maintenance at Tufts Medical Center. Goal: Rapid Cycle Change Process resulting in sustainable results at or better than national rates.

  10. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI)Team Structure

  11. Looking back, What worked? Diverse team membership, frequent meetings. Open mind, willingness to provide care differently Agreement to have a unified ‘Quest for ZERO’ infections Sense of Team Humility Crazy passion, ‘fire in the belly’ Strong support of CEO, CMO, CNO CEO support of Tufts participation with MHA CUSP October 2009:8 Member Tufts Team attended CUSP Kick Off

  14. Align yourself with a National Agenda CUSP

  15. Massachusetts ICU Safe Care Initiative Comprehensive Unit-Based Safety Program 4

  16. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI)Central Line Bundle Hand Hygiene Maximal Barrier Precautions Upon Insertion Central Line Insertion Check List Use of a Line Insertion Cart Chlorhexidine (CHG) skin antisepsis Optimal Catheter Site Selection (Avoid Femoral site over IJ) Daily Review of Line Necessity with Prompt Removal of Unnecessary Lines

  17. Looking back, What worked? Benefits of CUSP (Comprehensive Unit Based Safety Program): Provided the framework to align Senior Executives with clinicians in the goal for patient safety Validated key aspects of Tufts Medical Center Policy Provided leverage Frameworks, tool kits, informational sources, rich in details necessary to make key decisions, and the power to let go of old practices. Blood Cultures Goal Sheet Clave use Dressing and line protocols CHG bathing/Elimination of wash basins Network of experts within and beyond New England with key first hand learning experiences. Assisted in disbanding belief that patients are too ill, elimination not possible. Provided a competitive spirit, energizing

  18. Symbols of Change Take strong, decisive steps forward Take Risks Consider making several changes at one time Disrupt routine

  19. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI) 2009 High Risk Areas for CaBSI MICU CTU SICU CTU North 8 CMC In combination were responsible for 67% (56/83) of all line infections Accounted for 50% (11853/23345) of all line days.

  20. Intervention:CHG/Sulfadiazine Impregnated Lines in High Risk Areas Antimicrobial Impregnated catheters in high risk populations Piloted in select areas first MICU CCU Based on results plan to roll out house wide Shorter length catheter keeps sterile dressing intact Standard line length was 20 cm New standard 16 cm Allergy alert stickers on each kit Insert picture of new kit

  21. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI) Intervention:New Practice Guidelines Change culture and practice for drawing blood cultures Policy revision – drafted Blood culture algorithm to guide when and how Weekly data shows blood cultures off central lines decreasing

  22. Intervention:New Bathing Technique (Pilot) 1.)Elimination of Wash Bins 2.)CHG Bathing of all patients in high risk locations MICU CCU CTU SICU CMC North 8

  23. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI) Results Adult Critical Care (CaBSI rates per 1000 central line days) Begun House wide Daily rounding on all central lines Policy Reeducation 100% all RNs MD Education Placement Training Signoff

  24. Stop Central Line Associated Blood Stream Infection (caBSI) Results Adult Critical Care (CaBSI rates per 1000 central line days) Begun House wide Daily rounding on all central lines Policy Reeducation 100% all RNs Impregnated Catheters CCU and MICU CHG Bathing CCU MICU Staff Meetings Impregnated Catheters SICU and CTU Shadow Check list Program

  25. Intervention: Staff Engagement/Communication Strategy nolineinfections@tuftsmedicalcenter.org Email Account Connecting to the Clinicians at the bedside: Creation and communication of email site: nolineinfections@tuftsmedicalcenter.org Create platform for two way dialogue with clinicians. Take down barriers to care. Enhance transparency. Engage all staff including unit coordinators, techs, physical therapists, on the journey. Communicate changes in practices and policy. Facilitate problem solving, share knowledge, best practices, and success stores. Keep the quest of caBSI elimination front and center.

  26. Sample Email From: No Line Infections Sent: Monday, January 03, 2011 1:28 PM To: Tufts MC All Employees Subject: No Line Infections 2011 Thank you  to all clinicians and employees  for  embracing the  challenge of central line infection elimination. Our quest for  zero  continues into 2011    Trends in caBSI  Infections FY 2009 – FY 2011 YTD Tufts  Medical Center  & Floating Hospital for Children 

  27. Sample Email Response To: No Line Infections Subject: RE: No Line Infections 2011 Excellent goal and superb improvement/performance. Do we publish these data externally?

  28. Staff engagement: Priority # 1! GOAL: Eliminate Central Line Infections, keep the momentum Consistent messaging at every level, Board, Division, Unit etc. Search constantly for validation of policy in practice at the bedside Staff Participation/Engagement: Each ICU is sponsoring a champion for each Quality Initiative to ensure we continue to shrink the distance between policy and practice. March 2010 Weekly unit based Quality Staff In-services. Each ICU Quality Initiative will be discussed and framed for that units trend. Successes to be celebrated, staff participation essential. Transition 100% check list Shadow to Spot assessments based on compliance. Continue to validate practice with national benchmarks in practice and results.
