THE EPIQ PROJECT - Transforming Care through Clinical & Implementation Research
Reduced Mortality, Morbidity and Hospital Length of Stay in Canadian Neonatal Intensive Care Units OBJECTIVE Reduce mortality, major morbidity and hospital length of stay in NICU Pilot project in 12 sites outlining new practices for care National scale-up of the new practices, implemented in 30 hospitals and 17 universities across Canada PROJECT OUTCOMES (3 years) 30% decrease in severe eye disease causing blindness 30% decrease in hospital acquired infection 30% decrease in severe intestinal infection with high mortality 2 days average reduction in length of hospital stay $7-10M annual cost savings Lee SK, Canadian Neonatal Network EPIQ Study Group, CMAJ DOI /cmaj

Caring for Families Mothers health and wellbeing is considered essential to the baby’s wellbeing: - midwife - psychologist - physician Atmosphere of team support; Mother and baby are a unit, Nurse partners mother in the baby’s care

Estonia NICU Care Model
Parents are Primary Care-Givers, not nurses Parents responsible for all care except IV, medication Parents participate in rounds, reports, charting Encourage developmental & kangaroo care Nurses are teachers and consultants Results = 30% reduction in NI 30% improvement in weight gain 20% reduction in LOS 50% reduction in nurse utilization improved parent/staff satisfaction

Family Integrated Care Pilot Results Mount Sinai Hospital, Toronto
25% improvement in weight gain Decreased nosocomial infection - from 11.5% to zero Reduced critical incident reports - from 10% to zero Decreased parental stress CIHR funding for cluster randomized controlled trial at 16 hospitals NCE application for KT to all Level 2 NICUs

NEC Strategies The Japanese Way

NEC Incidence: Canada & Japan
17
Japan NEC Strategy Exclusive breast milk feeding for <28 weeks
Aggressive feeding – full feeds in one week Avoid umbilical catheters Early use of PIC lines to reduce skin breaks Use antibiotics only if evidence of infection Transpyloric feeding catheters Probiotics Glycerin enema Minimal handling Encourage developmental & kangaroo care

Health System Implications
Parents Provide Care Appropriate use Of technology Milk Bank GentleR FAMILY INTEGRATED CARE Developmental care Improved feeding Enhanced Follow-Up Change in roles Fewer staff Re-train staff Re-develop Facilities Re-organize Perinatal regionalization Improved outcomes Reduced costs
