Learning Objectives • • • • • Understand the nature of the problem and importance of this initiative List the 6|18 recommendations related to healthcare associated infections Supporting evidence for goals and recommendations Review current programs within the Military Health System (MHS) Explore potential programs and interventions Definition An infection acquired in hospital by a patient who was admitted for a reason other than that infection • An infection occurring in a patient in a hospital or other health care facility in whom the infection was not present or incubating at the time of admission. • Infections acquired in the hospital but appearing after discharge, and also occupational infections among staff of the facility Prevention of hospital acquired infections, A practical guide. 2nd edition. World Health Organization, 2002 Categories & Impact • Categories: • • • • • Central line associated blood stream infections (CLABSI) Catheter- associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI) Surgical site infections (SSI) Hospital onset Clostridium difficile infections Hospital onset methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) bacteremia • Impact: Why is it important?* • Healthcare associated infections are one of the most common sources of preventable harm • Contributes to hospital readmissions, development of antibiotic resistance • Most of such infections are preventable; represent opportunity to save lives and reduce cost *HealthyPeople2020; Scott II, R. Costs HAI within the MHS • All inpatient facilities participate in Partnership for Patients (https://partnershipforpatients.cms.gov/)* • Data from CDC’s National Healthcare Safety Network indicate MHS hospitals are generally meeting national standards** *MHS Review Final Report **Health.mil Patient Safety Reports ***CDC HAI Progress report 6|18 Prevent Healthcare Associated Infections 1. Require antibiotic stewardship programs in all hospitals and skilled nursing facilities 2. Prevent hemodialysis-related infections through immediate (payer) coverage for insertion of permanent dialysis ports Antibiotic Resistant Infections • • • • *CDC, 2013 Over 2 million antibiotic resistant infections annually Over 23,000 deaths due to antibiotic resistance annually $20 billion in direct excess costs Additional $35 billion to society in lost productivity Four Core Actions to Prevent Antibiotic Resistance • • • • Prevent infections, prevent the spread of resistance Tracking Improving antibiotic prescribing/stewardship Developing new drugs and diagnostic tests Antibiotic Stewardship Programs in US DoD Initiatives and Ways Ahead • Antibiotic stewardship programs in most hospitals • Ensure hospitals and clinics are following guidelines: http://www.cdc.gov/getsmart/healthcare/pdfs/checklist.pdf • DoD Combating Antibiotic Resistant Bacteria (CARB) program* • Multi-drug Resistant Organism Repository and Surveillance Network (MRSN)* • Located at WRAIR • Sequenced mcr-1 transferrable gene from colistin-resistant E. coli • Research on sepsis in deployed service members* • Research on drug resistant malaria* *Levine, P. June 6, 2016 Letter Scope of Hemodialysis Related Infections • Incidence of sepsis in ESRD patients is 100 times as high as general population* • Over 50% of ESRD patients in the US initiate dialysis with central venous catheter (CVC)* • Delays blamed on slow referral process and slow catch up of Medicare for ESRD patients* • Relative risk of infection of CVC vs. AV Fistula is 2.3** • Reducing CVC use by 50% in ESRD patients will save $1 billion in Medicare costs*** *2013 DHHS **2006 National Kidney Foundation ***2011 Allon, et al. DoD/MHS Hemodialysis • When possible, permanent access is created prior to initiation of hemodialysis • Exceptions are primarily in emergencies • Tricare/Tricare for Life covers all-aspects of ESRD up until the fourth month of dialysis at which point the patient must be enrolled in Medicare DoD/MHS Dialysis Way Ahead • Capture/Evaluate data on CVC vs. permanent dialysis access • Minimize use of CVC in ESRD patients • Ensure adequate time is allowed for maturation of permanent access prior to use Future endeavours (Ideas/suggestions) • Risk management of communicable disease (MERS-CoV, Pandemic Influenza, Tuberculosis) • Procedure for patient screening at point of entry into MHS (Urgent care, ER) • Procedure for isolation, quarantine • Patient/provider education • Process improvement measures • Identification of patients at greater risk for readmission Summary • DoD is leading the way in HAI initiatives • MTFs should ensure good adherence to recommendations and move forward with future initiatives References • • • • • • • • Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
