Proven Interventions for Improving Care • Reducing Catheter Associated Infections • Comprehensive Unit-based Safety Program (CUSP) methodology • http://www.hret.org/quality/projects/stop-uti.shtml
Principles of Safe Design • Standardize • Eliminate steps if possible • Create independent checks • Learn when things go wrong • What happened • Why • What did you do to reduce risk • How do you know it worked
CUSP • Assemble a hospital team • Collect and submit data • Attend a state kick off meeting • Team Check up Tool • Content Calls- Science of Safety • Informal Coaching Calls
CAUTI Fundamentals • Most common healthcare-associated infection (~ 40%) • Many urinary catheters used inappropriately 1 • Prevention guidelines: • HICPAC www.cdc.gov/hicpac/pdf/CAUTI/CAUTIguideline2009final.pdf • SHEA/IDSA: Infect Control Hosp Epid 2008;29:S41-S50 • Nurse-Led multidisciplinary rounds to reduce unnecessary urinary catheters 2 • Urinary catheter reminders and stop-orders decrease infection rates 3 • Saint S, et al. Am J Med 2000 • 2 Fakih MG, et al. Infec Control Hosp Epi 2008 • 3Meddings J et al. Clin Infect Dis 2010
CUSP- Teamwork Tools • Daily Goals • AM briefing • Shadowing • Culture-Team check up • TeamSTEPPS
CUSP METHODOLOGY • Educate; the science of safety • Identify defects • Assign executives to champion the work • Learn from defects • Implement team work and communication tools • Goal: Reduce mean catheter-associated urinary tract infection (CAUTI) rates in participating clinical units by 25% over two years
