Harmonization Partners Safe Practice 23 Care of the Ventilated Patient Chapter 7: Improving Patient Safety Through Prevention of Healthcare-Associated Infections
The Objective Care of the Ventilated Patient • Prevent healthcare-associated complications in ventilated patients.
The Problem Safe Practice 23 Care of the Ventilated Patient Chapter 7: Improving Patient Safety Through Prevention of Healthcare-Associated Infections
The Problem Frequency • Reported to range from 1 to 4 cases per 1,000 ventilator days • May exceed 10 cases per 1,000 ventilator days in special populations, such as pediatric and surgical patients • VAP occurs in 8% to 28% of mechanically ventilated patients [Edwards, Am J Infect Control 2007 Jun;35(5):290-301; NNIS, Am J Infect Control 2004 Dec;32(8):470-85]
The Problem Severity • Mortality rate of 14.4% • Presence of nosocomial pneumonia prolonged the length of mechanical ventilation by 10.3 days and mean ICU unit length of stay by 12.2 days [Klevens, Public Health Rep 2007 Mar-Apr;122(2):160-6; Levinson, Adverse events in hospitals: state reporting systems, 2008; Koulenti, Crit Care Med 2009 Aug;37(8):2360-8]
The Problem Preventability • Reduce the duration of mechanical ventilation by assessing patients daily • Maintain patients in semi-recumbent position, with a 30°-45° of elevation of the head of the bed • To reduce bacterial colonization, provide oral care with an antiseptic agent [Tablan, MMWR Recomm Rep 2004 Mar 26;53(RR-3):1-36;ATS/IDSA, Am J Respir Crit Care Med 2005 Feb 15;171(4):388-416; Dellinger, Crit Care Med 2005;9(6):653-4; Resar, Jt Comm J Qual Patient Saf 2005 May;31(5):243-8; Panchabhi, Chest 2009 May;135(5):1150-6; Segers, JAMA 2006 Nov22;296(20):2460-6; Sona, J Intensive Care Med 2009 Jan-Feb;24(1):54-62]
The Problem Cost Impact • Hospitalization costs were $48.9K higher in patients with VAP, and length of hospitalization 25 days longer • Hospital costs due to VAP range from $19.6K to $28.5K in 2007 dollars • Pediatric patients admitted to PICU had a mean additional hospitalization cost of $30.9K [Warren, Crit Care Med 2003; 31: 1312-7; Foglia, Clin Microbiol Rev 2007 Jul;20(3):409-25; Scott, The direct medical costs of healthcare-associated infections in US hospitals and the benefits of prevention, 2009]
Practice Specifications Safe Practice 23 Care of the Ventilated Patient Chapter 7: Improving Patient Safety Through Prevention of Healthcare-Associated Infections
Safe Practice Statement Care of the Ventilated Patient • Take actions to prevent complications associated with ventilated patients: specifically, ventilator-associated pneumonia, venous thrombo-embolism, peptic ulcer disease, dental complications, and pressure ulcers. [Institute for Healthcare Improvement, Ventilator Bundle: IHI Improvement Map, 2009]
Additional Specifications • Educate healthcare workers about the daily care of ventilated patients • Implement policies and practices for disinfection, sterilization, and maintenance of respiratory equipment • Conduct active surveillance for VAP in units that care for ventilated patients at high risk for VAP based on risk assessment [Coffin, Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol. 2008 Oct;29 Suppl 1:S31-40; Tablan, MMWR Recomm Rep 2004 Mar 26;53(RR-3):1-36; CDC, An Overview of Ventilator-Associated Pneumonia, 2005; Brito, Crit Care Med 2009 Jan;37(1):350-2; Hortal, Crit Care 2009;13(3):R80]
Additional Specifications • Provide ventilated patient data to key stakeholders • Educate patients and their families about prevention measures involved in the care of ventilated patients • Institute a ventilated patient checklist and a standardized protocol
Example Implementation Approaches Safe Practice 23 Care of the Ventilated Patient Chapter 7: Improving Patient Safety Through Prevention of Healthcare-Associated Infections
Example Implementation Approaches • Incorporate range-of-motion as daily care for ventilated patients per the organization’s protocol • Consider the use of direct antibiogram using E-test strips • Utilize antibiotic de-escalation therapy with critically ill patients who acquire a VAP [ASHP, Am J Health-Syst Pharm 1998; 55:1724-6; Clavet, CMAJ 2008 Mar 11;178(6):691-7; Trudel, Clin Orthop Relat Res 2008 May;466(5):1239-44; Bouza, Curr Opin Infect Dis 2009 Aug;22(4):345-51; Eachempati, J Trauma 2009 May;66(5):1343-8]
Example Implementation Approaches • Perform regular oral care with an antiseptic solution, considering a chlorhexidine agent • Remove oral secretions before changing the patient’s position • Provide easy access to noninvasive ventilation equipment • Devise strategies to prevent aspiration • Devise strategies to reduce colonization of the aerodigestive tract • Devise strategies to minimize contamination of equipment [ Yoneyama, J Am Geriatr Soc 2002 Mar;50(3):430-3; Kollef, Crit Care Med 2004 Jun;32(6):1396-405; Mori, Intensive Care Med 2006 Feb;32(2):230-6; Segers, JAMA 2006 Nov22;296(20):2460-6; Chan, BMJ 2007 Apr 28;334(7599):889; Silvestri, Crit Care Med 2007 Oct;35(10):2468; Chao, J Clin Nurs 2009 Jan;18(1):22-8]
Example Implementation Approaches Strategies of Progressive Organizations • Set a goal of zero VAPS and visually display their successes in patient care areas
