Healthcare Associated Infections II: Preventive Measures

3.2K
Essential infection prevention measures are based on the knowledge of the infection chain, the modes of transmission in healthcare settings, and the use of the best practices in all healthcare settings. Compulsory public reporting of healthcare-associated infection rates is needed to allow individuals and the community to make informed choices regarding selecting a healthcare facility.
The best practices for preventing healthcare-associated infections include hand hygiene, patient risk...

Quality Assurance

290
Quality assurance is the overarching term used to describe the activities employed to ensure the proper performance of a system. These activities can be classified into three categories: quality control, quality assessment, and internal corrective measures. Typically, these activities work cyclically: quality control is performed before and during the analysis, while quality assessment occurs during and after the investigation. Internal corrective measures are implemented based on the findings...

Methods of Documentation V: CBE

1.2K
Charting by Exception, or CBE, is a method of documentation used in healthcare, particularly in nursing, that focuses on documenting only significant or abnormal findings rather than recording every detail. This approach aims to streamline the documentation process, improve efficiency, and ensure that healthcare providers can quickly identify deviations from normalcy in patient assessments.
In CBE, healthcare professionals establish predefined standards of practice that define what constitutes...

The case management model is a multidisciplinary approach that involves healthcare professionals from diverse disciplines, such as physicians, nurses, therapists, social workers, and pharmacists, working collaboratively to address the various needs of patients. Each healthcare professional brings unique expertise and perspectives, contributing to a more comprehensive understanding of the patient's condition and tailoring treatment plans accordingly.
For example, a patient with a chronic...

Area of Science:

  • Quality Improvement
  • Patient Safety
  • Human Factors Engineering

Background:

  • Checklists are crucial for consistency in medical care.
  • Variable checklist use and unsustainable tracking were issues in a NICU.
  • The quality improvement initiative aimed to increase checklist compliance from 31% to over 75% within one year.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To improve compliance with safety checklist completion during rounds in a NICU.
  • To identify and overcome barriers to checklist utilization.
  • To implement and evaluate human factors-based interventions and a clinical decision support tool.

Main Methods:

  • A multidisciplinary team identified barriers to checklist use.
  • Interventions included redesigning a hard-copy checklist and implementing an electronic health record clinical decision support tool.
  • Primary outcome was checklist compliance; process metrics included completion time; balancing measures assessed staff perceptions.

Main Results:

  • Average biweekly checklist compliance increased from 31% to 80% post-intervention.
  • Average checklist completion time decreased significantly from 46 to 11 seconds.
  • While perceived relevance of questions increased slightly, perceived work burden also rose.

Conclusions:

  • Quality improvement methodology, human factors interventions, and a clinical decision support tool significantly enhanced checklist efficiency and compliance.
  • An automated and sustainable monitoring method for checklist completion was established.
  • The project provides a scalable infrastructure for quality improvement in healthcare settings.
