Preventing Catheter Related Bloodstream Infections
Suzanne Brungs MSN, MBA, RN Program Coordinator -VA Inpatient Evaluation Center (IPEC)
March 29, 2007
Background•Greater Cincinnati Health Council and VA GAPS (Getting at Patient Safety ) Center formed a patient safety workgroup in 2002. Set stretch goal: Get funding for patient safety project
•Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) issued a matching federal grant solicitation for implementation of evidence-based practices that improve patient safety.
•Hospital CEOs agree to fund 50% of the project : Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center • The Christ Hospital • Fort Hamilton Hospital • Jewish Hospital • Mercy Mt. Airy • St. Elizabeth Medical Center •TriHealth •University Hospital • VA Medical Center
AHRQ Project Objectives• Demonstrate successful implementation evidence-based practices by
measuring – Adherence to processes and practice– Reduction of nosocomial infections in OR, ICU.– Economic impact
• Train leaders at each hospital in transformation strategies and methodology
• Share successful transformation and training strategies across Cincinnati• Change elements of safety culture through learning • Sustain implementation of new evidence based practices and
collaborative beyond project funding.
Project Randomization
9 Cincinnati Hospital Systems
Reduction in surgical site infections (5)
Reduction in central line infections (4)
Randomly assigned
Reduction in surgical site infections
Reduction in central line infections
Year 1
Year 2
1) Implementation of maximal sterile barriers will reduce catheter related blood stream infections.
2) Together, the sites can achieve goals faster than had the practice been implemented individually.
3) Systematic spread of practice within the organization can occur.
4) The methodology of change can be learned. The learning curve will be reduced the second year.
The project will demonstrate that:
Components to the project• Pre-Work
• Kick-off
• Learning sessions
• Data collection
• Dissemination
• Develop data to promote buy-in. Raise project profile with visible leadership support
• Change Theory / Methods• Evidence Base reduce rework
• Plan
• Reduce work• Share strategies• Stimulate success
• Measure processes and improvement, feedback, value to project approach
• Spread practice approach to other organizations, cities etc
Catheter-Related Bloodstream Infection (CR-BSI): The Evidence
• 150,000 cases of CR-BSI annually in U.S.
• 10% to 30% attributable mortality rate
• Annual cost between $300 million & $2 billion
• Maximum sterile barriers and chlorhexidine has been shown to save lives and costs.
• Results of multiple studies support initiatives to prevent/reduce CRBSI
150 – 200,000 people get Catheter-related blood stream infectionin United StatesHospitals
Up to 20% die
Modifiable risk factors for Catheter related blood stream infections
1. Location: Infection less with Peripheral than Central; Chest or Neck preferable to Groin placement.
4. Antibiotic impregnated line Chlorohexidine-Sulfadiazine <8 day Minocycline- Rifampin >8 day
5. Time: Shorter = Better but No benefit to Automatic line change Over wire changes
2. Site PrepChlorhexidine
3. Operator PrepGown, gloves, cap, Mask, Full drape
Make it right• Project leaders said “we have to take away what’s
wrong and give them only what’s right”• Central line kits included supplies not included in best
practices (small drape and betadine)
• Infection Control Practitioners contacted major companies providing kits to their facilities.
• Meetings detailed desirable elements including deletion of small drape and betadine and additional safety items.
• Kit available for use October 2004
• Dissatisfaction with drape hole size, customized drape with multiple holes proto-typed and tested here.

1. Placement matters 2. Chlorhexidine Use 3. Maximal Barriers
Central Line Reference Cards were handed out
