SURGERY AND INFECTION
SURGICAL SITE INFECTION (SSI) In Surgery, it is important to differentiate between the quality of care and patient safety.
SURGICAL SITE INFECTION • Burden • 14.2 million inpatient operative procedure in 2014. • Between 1-3% develop SSI • Outcome • $3.3 billion annual cost. SSI cost an additional $18700. • Nearly 1 million additional inpatient-days. • • LOS is 5.1 days longer. • Majority of deaths in surgery attributed to SSI. H.CUP statistical brief#233

RISK FACTORS(CONTINUE) • Procedural related • Nature of the procedure. • Duration of the procedure. • Surgical technique. • Other surgical parameters.
RISK FACTORS(CONTINUE) • Microbiome related: • Colonization vs. infection. • Virulence factors. • Adherence ability. • Inoculum Does it make any difference if SSI is due to gram positive or negative ?
IMPROVEMENT BUNDLES Pre-surgical Peri-operative. Post-surgical
IMPROVEMENT BUNDLES (CONTINUE) • Pre-surgical • Pre-surgical screening. • Education and class attendance. • CHG bathing. • Optimal control of pre-existing condition • Decolonization protocol. • Rehydration and Nutrition. Is it matter doing face-to-face screening vs. phone screening?
IMPROVEMENT BUNDLES (CONTINUE) • Peri-operative • Pre-procedure. • Documentation (to check order sets). • Addressing concerns. • Emptying the bladder. Procedural. • • Skin prep. • Time out. • Traffic control, OR etiquette, surgical attire • Antibiotics. Temperature. • • Blood transfusion. • Case summery • Post-procedure. • FIO2 Blood sugar • • Temperature • Foley removal if possible
IMPROVEMENT BUNDLES (CONTINUE) • Post surgical • Early mobilization. • Discharge instruction. • Addressing concerns. • Provide resources. • Pharmacological training Is it important to know your patients' destination and what type of care they will get at there?
MEASURING METRIC FOR SSI National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) • CDC program that reports aggregated surveillance data from U.S. hospitals • Standardized Infection Ration (SIR) 𝑃𝑐𝑡𝑓𝑠𝑤𝑓𝑒 • 𝑇𝐽𝑆 = 𝐹𝑦𝑞𝑓𝑑𝑢𝑓𝑒 • Why should we expect any infection?
CULTURAL ACCEPTANCE CULTURE TRUMPS EVERYTHING
