•To determine incidence and significance of non-ventilator hospital-
acquired pneumonia (NV-HAP) in the ICU setting.
•Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) has been well-studied.
•Ventilator prevention bundles have dramatically reduced the incidence of
VAP across the nation and in our institute.
•However, little is known about the incidence of NV-HAP in the ICU
PURPOSE
BACKGROUND/SIGNIFICANCE
•HAP is occurring in non-ventilated patients, resulting in loss of dollars
and lives.
•Non-ventilated ICU patients may be at higher risk to develop NV-HAP
when compared to adult patients on a medical/surgical unit and ventilated
patients with a ventilator prevention bundle in place.
•Prevention efforts and best practice should be rigorously applied.
•Recommended focus: increase the frequency of basic nursing care to at-
risk patients.
CONCLUSIONS
•“Identify modifiable risk factors and develop programs to reduce the
risk of pneumonia by changing those risk factors.” (CDC, 2003)
•Reducing pathogens in the mouth/throat is a simple, modifiable risk
factor for pneumonia – we chose to start here.
PREVENTION OF NV-HAP OUTCOMES
•Improved knowledge regarding oral care.
•Increased frequency of oral care for ventilated and non-ventilated
patients.
•Decreased incidence and rate of NV-HAP in the ICU.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
•We appreciate the grant from Sage to help us with costs of data collection
and analysis.
•A special “thank you” to our ICU leaders and oral care champions: Tracy
Chu, RN, Educator and Traci Sheesley, RN, ICU Director.
•We could not have made this much progress without the tireless efforts of
our Hospital-Acquired Pneumonia Prevention Initiative (HAPPI) team and
all our bedside nursing staff: you are making a difference for our
patients!—thank you!
•Currently, there are no requirements to monitor NV-HAP.
•Limited studies available indicate that NV-HAP is an emerging factor in
prolonged hospital stays of 7-9 days, patient mortality of 19.8%, and
increased cost of $40,000.
•New studies by Esperatti (2010) and Davis (2012) indicate that VAP and
NV-HAP share similar pathogens and mortality rates, and NV-HAP occurs
more frequently than VAP.
•Hospital-acquired pneumonia is generally considered a preventable
condition, and may be subject to loss of reimbursement in the future.
INTERVENTIONS:
•Revised Oral Care Protocol to include non-ventilated patients.
•Purchased therapeutic oral care tools.
•Educated staff
•Monthly data collection of oral care process and NV-HAP outcome.
•Nursing care known to prevent pneumonia was frequently missed.
•A total of 24,482 patients and 94,247 patient days were eligible for study
inclusion.
•There were 14,396 adult ICU days: 35 NV-HAP cases, with an infection
rate of 2.43 per 1000 non-ventilated days.
•There were 79,851 adult medical/surgical days: 80 NV-HAP, cases, with
an infection rate of 1.0 per 1000 patient days.
•The rate of VAP was 0.19 per ventilation day.
•Demographics and risk factors for NV-HAP were similar between groups.
•Estimated cost of NV-HAP in ICU over the one year period:
• $1.4 million, 280 extra days, 7 deaths.
•This was a descriptive, quasi-experimental study using retrospective data
to determine the incidence, demographics, and clinical factors of NV-HAP.
•NV-HAP data were obtained from a large, urban hospital’s electronic
integrated medical management system.
•Inclusion criteria: all adult discharges between January 1, 2010 and
December 31, 2010, with ICD-9 codes of pneumonia-not present on
admission, AND meeting the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s
(CDC’s) definition for HAP.
•NV-HAP were then attributed to either medical/surgical or ICU, based on
date of clinical onset.
