Work Completed on C difficile by LEAPT Hospitals

BOLD AIM:•Reduce Hospital-Onset Clostridium Difficile (C. diff) in patients by 10% to 25% by December 2014.

– Georgia: Goal: 10% Reduction

•107,000 Patients Estimated National Rate Hospital-Onset C. diff in 2011

• 5,000 to 12,500

Nationally, the Potential Number of Lives Saved With a 10% to 25% Reduction of C. diff incidence

KEY LEARNINGS FROM LEAPT PILOT SITES:

•Positioned to spread best practices within our HENs and across the nation starting in May 2014. Provide mentor support and monthly coaching calls/webinars. •Demonstrate the business case for patient quality and safety improvement in the area of C. diff. •Continue to expand efforts to monitor bundle compliance in ‘real time’ – ensure implementing all bundle components. •Develop/broadly implement EHR triggers and warnings. •Collaborate and partner with others such as CDC, state Public Health HAI advisory committee, state health departments, QIOs, pharmacists and other partners to strengthen C. diff reduction efforts and antimicrobial stewardship programs in hospitals and the community. •Engage other practice/provider settings, including physician offices, long term care, home health, pharmacies, and urgent care. •Raise community awareness regarding appropriate antibiotic use and prevention of C. diff.

C. DIFF OUTCOME MEASURES:

INCIDENCE:Hospital-Onset (HO) C. diff Incidence Rates – HO C. diff per 10,000 patient days C. diff standardized infection ratio (SIR) for the adult patients

ANBIMICROBIAL STEWARDSHIP:Broad Spectrum Agent Use - Defined Daily Dose per 1,000 Patient Days for:

• Tigecycline • Ceftaroline • Daptomycin • Linezolid • ALL Cephalosporins • 3rd Generation Cephalosporins • 4th & 5th Generation Cephalosporins• Carbapenems• Extended Spectrum Penicillins• Penicillins• Quinolones

PROCESS MEASURES

Overall compliance with environment cleaning and individual cleaning components.

Overall compliance with isolation procedures for C. diff

patients and individual bundle elements.

Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) marker testing.

HOSPITAL TESTIMONIALS:

• The most beneficial aspect of LEAPT is the networking that we have been able to do to learn from each other.

• We learned through the small tests of change we did, that some assumptions we had made previously were not accurate, and this prompted us to change a process and re-educate the staff. — Georgia Hospital Association

WHY IT IS IMPORTANT TO WORK ON C. DIFF - THE HUMAN COST

• MP was a very loved volunteer at a MN Hospital. He was hospitalized for seven days after a cholecystectomy and small bowel resection. He returned three days after his discharge due to surgical complications. Eight days after his readmission MP tested positive for C diff. During this readmission, he stayed in the hospital for a total of 68 days largely due to health complications related to his C. diff infection. During this time, he had six surgical procedures (including a colectomy due to severe C. diff). He returned for seven additional readmissions that same year and had medical costs totaling more than $1.2 million. The following year MP spent 87 more days in the hospital and had medical costs that totaled more than $368,000.

• Stories like MP’s can be prevented with proper hand hygiene and holding others accountable for maintaining a safe environment for patient care. — Minnesota Hospital Association

Partnership to Reduce C. diff

• Identify mentor physicians and hospitals to serve as faculty and consult with hospitals beginning the journey.

• Collaborate and partner with other stakeholders to incorporate outside expertise and resources, such as CDC, state Public Health HAI advisory committee, state health departments, QIOs, pharmacists, and others to review bundle and make recommendations regarding strengthening antimicrobial stewardship programs and C. diff reduction in hospitals and community.

12


Implementation of Bundle

• Create a multi- track bundle that includes all aspects of C. diff reduction, including prevention, detection, treatment, and containment.

• Engage front line staff including nursing, pharmacy, environmental services, lab and others in rapid cycle testing and implementation of bundle elements.

• Incorporate the human factors approach to hand hygiene to remove barriers to hand hygiene and facilitate hand hygiene compliance in addition to engaging staff.

13


Antimicrobial Stewardship

• Collaborate with CDC to identify additional NHSN data analysis and Antimicrobial Stewardship measures.

• Establish a stewardship team led by pharmacists and physicians to support clinicians in making the best choice of antimicrobials for their patients.

• Develop guidelines on appropriate antimicrobial selection, dose and duration.

• Restrict broad spectrum antimicrobials based on defined use criteria.

• Evaluate antimicrobial use data and assess which classes require further attention.

Slide 15

15


Detection

• Recommendations for C. diff Testing. • Reduce unnecessary culture practices (limiting the use of

cultures to clinical evaluation).

16


Cleaning and Disinfecting

• Improve adherence with environmental cleaning: standardized protocol to environmental cleaning, standardized tool to check compliance with cleaning, and audits on cleaning.

• Pilot different ATP monitoring devices, including UV gel black lights, to assess high touch cleaning efficacy.

17


Slide 18

Isolation

• Improve compliance with isolation procedures (healthcare workers audits and feedback) and the availability of personal protective equipment and hand hygiene products.

• Use of a “Safe zone” for limited entry to room for contact isolation.

19


Community Approach

• Work with other providers, long term care facilities, Home Health, retail pharmacies and others to increase public knowledge regarding appropriate antibiotic use and reduction of C. diff.
