HHS 2020 Goals for Infection Reduction • Current SIR (standardized infection ratio) uses 2015 national data to create the “expected” value for comparison • Goal is a SIR less than 1 to be “better than expected” • However, HHS set more aggressive goals as the target SIR to achieve by 2020 for each infection measure

MRSA Call to Action
Hospital-Onset MRSA • In 2018, Tennessee reported 336 cases of HO MRSA ▪ 77 patient deaths estimated (23% mortality estimate) ▪ $11.64 million in estimated costs ($34,657 per case) Source of cost and mortality estimates: Infection Control and Hospital Epidemiology, April 2010
MRSA – Underlying Sources • Indwelling Devices – 88% – 72% had a central venous catheter • Intensive Care Units – 46% – And Step Down units 20% • Wounds – 79% • Surgery – 32% • Dialysis – 18% • History of MRSA -19%
MRSA Improvements Key lessons from successful hospitals, Saint Thomas Midtown Hospital and Methodist University Hospital • Leadership support – Leadership rounding, huddles, staff accountability and feedback – Invest resources for infection prevention and auditing of practice • Clinical practice – Focused interventions within high-risk, targeted units – Increased focus on infection prevention practices with audits of compliance – Increased use of Chlorhexidine baths in high-risk populations – Renewed focus on central line infection prevention bundles
MRSA Recommendations • Updated recommendations were approved by THA Board of Directors last fall • Webinar education for hospitals and best practice sharing provided • TCPS plans to survey hospitals in late spring to assess the level of adoption of the updated practices • CDC testing new interventions with Tennessee and Kentucky Dept. of Health and five hospitals that participated in chart audits last year • THA board demonstrate leadership and commitment to MRSA prevention strategies by fully implementing recommendations
THA Board Directive • Develop a targeted action plan to address MRSA with specific outline and communication to CEOs – Share individual data with CEO if high events. Call them and do site visits if needed. – Specific list of steps to address. Request to get prescriptive on what is expected and measure accountability. – Consider a state campaign to get everyone on board like THA early elective delivery project. Get physicians/hospitals on board together to a focused goal.
Updated CDC Recommendations • CDC March 2019 Vital Signs report on staph infections • New Resource: Strategies to Prevent Hospital-onset Staphylococcus aureus Bloodstream Infections in Acute Care Facilities https://www.cdc.gov/hai/prevent/staph- prevention-strategies.html
Strategies to Prevent Hospital- onset MRSA Bloodstream Infections in Acute Care Settings https://www.cdc.gov/hai/prevent/staph-prevention- strategies.html
Implement Core Infection Control Practices • Hand hygiene • Standard precautions • Environmental cleaning and disinfection • Personal protective equipment • Antibiotic stewardship program • Develop infrastructure support – Develop multidisciplinary infection prevention workgroup – Use data to identify and target high-risk units and populations – Routinely audit and conduct competency based assessments for infection control practices.
Strategies Targeted at Device and Procedure Related HAIs • Follow core practices to prevent CLABSI, SSI, Hemodialysis, VAP, non-VAP • Evidence-based guidance for practices available at cdc.gov, SHEA • Implement supplemental strategies for high-risk patients and high-risk procedures – Intranasal antistaphyloccal antibiotic/antiseptic – Daily chlorhexidine wash or wipes
Source Control Strategies for High-risk Patients • Decolonization for ICU patients • Decolonization for patients all patients with CVC or midline (including non-ICU patients)
