2 Pressure Injury Quality Imprvement Strategies Cathlic Health LIFE pened Nvember 1, 2009 Occurrence reprting-falls Falls Perfrmance Imprvement Team 2010 fall rate 19.51% 2016 fall rate 12.34%

3 Pressure Injury With increasing enrllment there were increased reprted pressure injuries Factrs driving LIFE t address this trend: 1. Changes t Level II reprting in 2013, 2014 & 2015 Level II Pressure Injuries LIFE Level II reprts

4 2012 & 2014 CMS Survey Findings 2. CMS audits resulted in findings fr SDY04-Participant Assessment, which als drve the standardizatin f surveillance and assessment CMS fund that the Hme Health Assessments were cmpleted by the clinic nurse.

5 Wund Perfrmance Imprvement Team In 2014 a Wund Perfrmance Imprvement Team was created GOALS: Critically analyze the wund prcess and wund utcmes Review and analyze the rate f SNF vs. Cmmunity pressure injuries fr 2012 and 2013 t develp a reductin rate fr 2014 Nurse Practitiner t becme wund certified Develp a prcess t identify participants at risk upn admissin, when there is a decrease in mbility and upn discharge frm a hspital r SNF Develp interventins t address risk

6 Wund Perfrmance Imprvement Team Early Effrts Weekly Wund meeting Revise Skin Assessment & Pressure Injury Preventin Plicy & Prcedure 2013 audit determined that the Braden Tl did nt predict risk, fr thse participants that develped a pressure injury

7 Wund Perfrmance Imprvement Team Systems and Prcess The team: Develped a standardized nursing wund prgress nte Develped standards f wund measurement Develped a cnsent frm fr wund phtgraphy Revised the P & P: All participants have a full RN assessment t include cmpletin f the Braden Scale and PIPT at enrllment, 6 & 12 mnths r with a significant change in cnditin Fllw up hme visits include a full skin examinatin, educatin, ensuring a treatment plan is in place including apprpriate DME Once the participant has reached a 6 mnth reassessment withut a reccurrence, the plan can be re-evaluated in cncurrence with the PCP staff These assessments enable the IDT t priritize apprpriately and aggressively care plan pressure injury risk and pressure injury relieving interventins

8 Wund Perfrmance Imprvement Team Reintrduce Braden Risk assessment-validated risk assessment tl Braden tl reintrduced with educatin and guidance frm the LIFE WOCN NP Develped frequency f assessments based upn Braden scre: A scre f 16 r greater-fllw up visit every 6 mnths Scre f 15 r 14-every 3 mnths Scre f 13 r less and/r histry f previus pressure injury-every mnth

9 The Team develped a Pressure Injury Preventin Tl fr risk assessment and recmmendatins fr pressure relief. Pressure Injury Preventin Tl

16 Database Develpment 2015 LIFE began discussins with Emergencetek Grup Pints fr discussin included: Capital Expenditure and Cst Apprval Hsting Slutins Licenses fr Third Party Cmpnents Security Access Rights t Sftware IT Liaisn t facilitate access t vendr fr develpment

17 Database Develpment Much wrk was undertaken t create the new database: Creating standard wund types Creating standard anatmical structures & directin Creating standard treatments Creating standard interventins All wunds were mapped frm the Access database int the new database LIFE QA staff manually reviewed, verified and edited any insufficient mapping f 2015 and 2016 wunds int the database

18 Outcmes 2016 Quarter 4-the weekly wund reprt was peratinal This enabled the ability t determine pressure injury rates fr 2015 and 2016!!! Data driven prcesses

19 Pressure Injuries 6% LIFE Yearly Acquired Pressure Injury Rate (Includes all lcatins) 5% 4% 3% 2% 1% 0% Cmmunity SNF Hspital Ttal Results: In 2015 pressure injury acquisitin rate amng cmmunity participants was 2.89%; in 2016, 2.12%. In the SNFs the 2015 rate was 5.34%; cmpared t 3.21% in The 2015 hspital rate was 0%; 2.22% in There was n significant difference (P>.05) amng care site cmparisns but the ttal reductin frm 3.41% in 2015 t 2.45% in 2016 was statistically significant (P <.05). The prevalence f pressure injury present at enrllment increased frm 0.17% in 2015 t 0.38% in 2016 was statistically significant (P<.05).
