3
Polling Question 1 3 What has been the major focus of your team’s effort throughout the project? 1.Integrating the appropriate indications into your MD orders and RN documentation systems 2.Designing staff competencies to test staff knowledge around need for catheter, insertion, and maintenance 3.Improving teamwork and communication efforts among clinicians that care for patients with catheters 4.Implementing alternative strategies to indwelling catheters (example- use of condom catheters, straight cathing for sample collection)
4
Polling Question 2 4 If your team has a urinary catheter competency in place for staff, please choose the main components of that program: 1.Online self- directed education learning module 2.Hands on simulation program for insertion and maintenance procedures 3.Group discussion following lectured presentation of urinary catheter best practices 4.A hybrid model using both active in-person and online training 5.We do not currently have a urinary catheter competency program for staff

Impact of CAUTI Insertion indications – decision making scenarios Review of policies and procedures Demonstrated insertion competency
7
Catheter associated urinary tract infection Publicly reported Most common cause of healthcare acquired infections Up to ¼ of hospital patients may have an indwelling urinary catheter
8
Increased length of stay – 3.8 days! Increased healthcare costs - $500 million annually Non-reimbursement of CAUTI related expenses
9

Consider supplies What is included in kit Closed system for all catheter sizes and types Where supplies are located Availability of staff to assist Overbed tables
47
Do not routinely replace indwelling catheters based on duration Assess each catheter placement individually Reinforce appropriate urine specimen collection techniques
49
When, where and how to nurses learn to place indwelling urinary catheters? Does the learning environment match the practice environment?
52
Good perineal care prior to opening kit Alcohol based hand hygiene Appropriate draping Appropriate swabbing Contamination of catheter – bring two kits
57
Shared mental model – trained nurses and techs together Teamwork to facilitate placement Empowered all staff to speak up when breach of sterile technique noted – patient safety!
58
Provide feedback to staff Post CAUTI rates and link to insertion One on one education and remediation Don’t forget providers education!
59
A indwelling urinary catheter is not a life-saving procedure Think, slow down, appropriate technique Safe practice, safe care!
