  1. Objectives  Recognize factors that contribute to UTIs in the long term care setting.  Review relevant & recent data on UTI Management.  Understand important factors to consider when choosing cranberry-containing medical foods for UTI management. UTI Management in Long Term Care:  Learn tactics on how to effectively implement a UTI protocol in your facility while improving quality of care. Implementing an Effective UTI Protocol Presented by: Lynn Spalding, RDN, CSG Sharon Strunk, RN, DON April 23, 2014 Healthcare Associated Conditions (HAI) Prevalence & Cost of Treating UTI are the Leading Cause of Deaths • Most prevalent infection in LTC • Accounts for ~40% of all infections & over • 1.6 - 3.8M infections occur per year in LTC 8% of total costs in nursing home care • ~400,000 deaths • Most frequent cause of hospital transfer & readmissions • Most prevalent source of bacteremia • USDHHS National Action Plan to prevent HAI • Most common reason for hospital transfer 5 priority areas: 1.Urinary tract infections • Costs to treat a UTI is ~$691, not including 2.C. diff costs associated with complications 3.Skin & wound infections 4.Lower respiratory tract infection 5.Influenza & influenza-like illness Hooton & Stamm. 1997.
