WHAT IS A BUNDLE?A bundle is a structured way of improving processes of care and patient outcomes.
It is a small straightforward set of practices – generally three to five that when performed collectively, reliably and continuously, have been proven to improve patient outcome.
٢٦٢٦
The Bundle1. If at all possible avoid hair removal; if hair removal is necessary, avoid the use of razors2. Ensure prophylactic antibiotic was prescribed as per local antibiotic policy guideline, for the specific operation category & Ensure the antibiotic was been administered within 60 minutesprior to the operation.3. Ensure the patient’s body temperature was normal throughout the operation (excludes cardiac patients).4. Ensure the surgical scrub & preparation of incision site was done.5. Ensure the patient’s blood glucose level was normal throughout the operation (diabetic patients only).
Surgical Site Infection Prevention Bundle
٢٧
Surgical Site Infection Prevention Bundle –Standard Operating Procedure
Surgical site infections arise when the host’s defences are overwhelmed by micro-organisms that come from the patient, disseminated from staff in the operating theatre or from inadequately decontaminated instruments.Procedures undertaken in the ward pre and post operatively, and in the theatre peri-operatively must be designed to negate, or minimise as far as is possible, the risk of surgical site infection.
Statement
Objectives:1.To optimise peri-operative care minimising the risk of surgical site infections.2.To be able to demonstrate quality peri-operative care in OUR clinical area
Objectives
Before the SSI prevention bundle is performed.Signed commitment from the clinical team: consultants; junior doctors, ward manager and nurse team to optimising SSI prevention care.The data required for this bundle should be collected and documented on every patient.Analysis of compliance can be through the analysis of data (if there is ongoing surveillance), or via a weekly analysis of a selection of patients’ peri-operative records
Requirements
For weekly analysis review of notes1.Perform hand hygiene.2.On each ward select notes from 7 patients who underwent operations.3.Check to see if the appropriate bundle criteria were recorded in the patients’ notes.4.Record findings on the SSI bundle prevention data collection sheet.
Procedure
Complete form.Give it to:Discuss and display the data when it has been returned.(Keep bundle forms for xx time).
