Background
Bloodstream Infections (BSI) Associated with a high risk of mortality Sepsis: 20% Severe sepsis: 40% Septic shock: >60% Delays in appropriate antimicrobial therapy have been shown to: Increase mortality Increase hospital length of stay Increase costs Promote antimicrobial resistance Chang H, et al.

Purpose Analyze the effects of the BCID panel on appropriate antimicrobial use, including duration of vancomycin therapy, and patient outcomes 9
Study Overview Multi-center Retrospective IRB approved Mount Carmel West Mount Carmel East Mount Carmel St. Ann’s Retrospective January 1, 2016 through January 31, 2017 All outcomes were compare 6 months pre- and post-implementation of the BCID panel IRB approved
Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria ≥18 years of age Positive blood culture for Methicillin-sensitive Staphylococcus aureus (MSSA) OR 1 positive culture out of 2 for Coagulase-negative Staphylococcus (CoNS) Positive blood cultures for pathogens other than MSSA or CoNS Vancomycin for indications other than sepsis or bacteremia Patients who expired, left against medical advice, or transferred to palliative care within 24 hours of the positive culture
Outcomes Primary Secondary Length of vancomycin therapy Time to appropriate antimicrobial therapy MSSA: de-escalation to a beta-lactam CoNS: no therapy Hospital length of stay (LOS) Length of vancomycin therapy Measured in hours Length of intensive care unit (ICU) stay Time to negative blood culture Adverse drug events 30-day mortality 30-day readmission

Overall Results
Results: Primary Outcomes
Results: Vancomycin
Conclusions
Conclusions Reduced time to appropriate therapy Reduction in unnecessary antibiotic use Trend toward decrease in hospital length of stay in CoNS subgroup Reduction in time on vancomycin and overall vancomycin use
Study Limitations Time to appropriate therapy calculation Serum creatinine was only collected on patients who received vancomycin Potential for variation in reaction time Bias and consistency of data collection
Future Implications Ongoing education Provided pocket guide in addition to electronic link Room for improvement regarding vancomycin use Implementation of other panels Respiratory Meningitis/Encephalitis Gastrointestinal
