The Cohort ChallengeMarch to the Goal – Keeping the Beat • Topics CAUTI and Falls with Injury • Rapid Cycle Improvement • Participation guidelines • Baseline Data
Best Practices: CAUTI • Insert catheters only for appropriate indications using evidence based criteria including in the OR and ED. • Daily assessment of catheter necessity and meeting criteria included in bedside report • Leave catheters in place only as long as needed. Use nurse driven protocols for catheter removal • Facilitation of nurse/patient/family communication during report, rounding and interactions • Increase communication with nurse and physicians related to catheter continuation • Automatic removal orders after surgery • Ensure that only properly trained persons insert and maintain catheters. Perform staff competency assessment related to urinary catheter insertion and maintenance • Insert catheters using aseptic technique and sterile equipment (acute care setting) • Maintain a closed drainage system • Maintain unobstructed urine flow • Perform proper hand hygiene and use Standard (or appropriate isolation) Precautions
Falls with Injury: Definition Clarification Clarification NDNQI Falls definition Injury Level When the initial fall report is written by the nursing staff, the extent of injury may not yet be known. Hospitals have 24 hours to determine the injury level, e.g., when you are awaiting diagnostic test results or consultation reports. This is a required data element and you should report Falls with Injury through NOVI monthly based on the following guidelines: • None—patient had no injuries (no signs or symptoms) resulting from the fall; if an x-ray, CT scan or other post fall evaluation results in a finding of no injury • Minor—resulted in application of a dressing, ice, cleaning of a wound, limb elevation, topical medication, pain, bruise or abrasion • Moderate—resulted in suturing, application of steri-strips/skin glue, splinting, or muscle/joint strain • Major—resulted in surgery, casting, traction, required consultation for neurological (basilar skull fracture, small subdural hematoma) or internal injury (rib fracture, small liver laceration) or patients with any type of fracture regardless of treatment or patients who have coagulopathy who receive blood products as a result of a fall • Death—the patient died as a result of injuries sustained from the fall (not from physiologic events causing the fall)
