5 Overview Why focus on SSI Prevention and measurement? Why should I participate? What is SSI Prevention Audit? Who may participate? How do I participate? Where can I find resources for the SSI Audit?

6 Why Focus on SSI Prevention?

7 James 71 years old retired barber I worked hard all of my life Family: A Brother Brian 3 Sisters Janet, Louise, Mary 2 Sons: Jesse, Roy 6 Grandchildren: Elizabeth (18), Margaret (18), Allen (13), Nicholas (12), Brenda (8), Thomas (6) Well prior to his first surgery

8 My Introduction to James by a colleague: James You have a patient next week who s risk assessment is 50% That s a 50% chance of death or a Major cardiac event. 50/50 Chance of leaving the hospital alive.

9 Medical Background Well until 3 years ago: Ruptured AAA, with a Stent Repair Stormy post-op course including Cardiac Arrest Infected Aortic Graft Too sick to remove graft Plan: long term Antibiotics Sacral Plexopathy with parapelegia wheelchair dependant Living in Residential Care James More Recently: A number of Urosepsis events Ureteric Obstruction due to inflammation around infected graft Poor Kidney Function Anemia of Chronic Disease Chronic infection Poor Kidney Function Prior Cardiac Arrest Parapelegic Chronic Anemia Huge operation with large anticipated blood loss

10 The Operation James 1. Route his blood flow from his Left Axillary Artery to his Femoral Artery (Ax-Fem Bypass) 2. Connect the two Femoral Arteries (Fem-Fem Crossover) 3. Remove his Aorta and Aortic Grafts from his Kidneys to his Iliac Arteries

11 The Operation 1. James was given a 50/50 Chance 2. The Operation took about 8 hours 3. The OR went very well 4. He lost most of his blood volume, which was replaced from the Blood Bank: PRBC, Plasma, Platelets James

12 The Operation James His Aorta and grafts were heavily infected. It was a very dramatic presentation. The OR staff (who have seen it all ) were impressed that James had survived the infection at all, much less 3 years. Infection by: Drug Resistant Pseudomonas

13 Now James James is doing amazingly well. He is finding more movement of his legs His Kidney function is improving He is getting stronger every day

14 Surgical Site Infections SSI s happen to real people People with real lives People with Families People with Communities James SSI s are not about statistics, they are about real people

15 How many people? James SSI s are the most common Healthcare Associated Infection among Surgical Patients 2-5% of all Surgeries (1.3 M in Canada) 26-65,000 patients yearly And at what cost?

16 James Dollars: $350,000 to 1 Million Canadian?

17 Resources: 11 Days increased LOS 60% more ICU time 5x more likely to be readmitted James 60% Preventable 2x the mortality

18 Personal Cost James: His health Years of his life being unwell Almost, his life James Jesse, Roy Their Father Brian, Janet, Louise, Mary Their Brother Elizabeth, Margaret, Allen, Nicholas, Brenda, Thomas Their Grandfather

19 But, SSI s are not about statistics, they are about people We need statistics to improve how we treat people like James

20 Join the SSI National Audit Nationally and Provincially It is important to know how we re doing Where are we having problems Where do we need to put effort in Where will we get (need) the biggest improvement for people like James Locally How do you stack up? We all think we re doing a good job, but without measuring, we don t really know Where do you need to improve?

21 How many problems like James can we avoid?

22 National SSI Prevention Audit Call to Action Virginia Flintoft, MSc, BN and Alexandru Titeu, BA (Hons) January 7, 2016

23 What is the SSI Prevention Audit?

24 Why Should I Participate? Identify areas of excellence and areas for improvement Measurement is critical to improve the delivery of safe and effective healthcare

25 Who may participate? All organizations at which surgery is performed are encouraged to use measurement to support SSI Prevention quality improvement efforts throughout the month (and throughout the year!). Safer Healthcare Now! has made available a SSI Prevention Audit tool to support collection of measures related to SSI Prevention pre, peri, and post-operative processes. 25
