Program Rationale/Background Eye splash incidents among healthcare workers during the course of patient care and the related contamination of the caregiver with the potential for serious infection: – Can be traumatic for the caregiver affected by the splash – Are costly for the hospital Estimated $3K - $15K (up to $100K) per event Estimate average # events per year per facility : 40 – 50 – $240K - $300K per year if no infections TIDI is offering a “simple” process improvement program to addresses this issue.

Program Rationale/Background Caregivers currently have a protection routine that includes donning gloves and facemasks – Eyewear usage is not standard – Three basic behavior by caregivers regarding eyewear: Use Disposable eyewear Use Reusable eyewear – May consider prescription glasses sufficient protection Do not use/occasionally use eyewear TIDI has learned that one reason for this is lack of accessibility to the safety products – “Clean” eyewear is not currently as readily available at point of use as gloves and masks are. The implication: Like masks and gloves, disposable eyewear should be easily accessible at point of use.

Program Rationale/Background Additionally, TIDI sponsored a study and learned that re-usable eyewear also poses infection risk – 75% of the time the re-usable eyewear still carried pathogens after post-procedure processing. The implication: Like masks and gloves, eyewear should be used and disposed after each patient/procedure.
