3 Long-term care facilities Institution that provide health care to people who are unable to manage independently in the community nursing homes rehabilitation facilities extended care facilities behaviour health, psychiatric, physical and mental challenges ~16,000 NH in the U.S. serving 1.6 million residents.

4 Consequences of HAI in LTCFs Between 1.6 and 3.8 million infections occur each year in LTCFs with nearly 388,000 deaths attributed to these infections Infections are the reason for 27 to 63 percent of all resident transfers to hospitals Cost is estimated to be between $673 million to $2 billion annually

5 The Alphabet Soup of Multidrug Resistant Organisms (MDROs) Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA ) Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci (VRE) Multidrug Resistant Gram-Negative Rods (MDR- GNR) such as E. Coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Acinetobacter baumannii Clostridium difficile Just being a resident of a LTCF puts someone at high risk for being colonized or infected with a MDRO

6 Infection Control in NH Limited resources, overcrowding and vulnerable resident population Residents are not patients Focus of NH is comfort and dignity Shared spaces and group activities Frequent transfers back and forth between NHs and hospitals

7 Rationale for review Prevention of Nosocomial Infections and Cost Effectiveness in Nursing Home (PNICE-NH) Grant Limited data on overall estimates of MDRO infections in nursing homes 7

8 Research Objective To estimate the prevalence and/or incidence of colonization with MDRO in nursing homes Paucity of data on the overall burden of colonization in this setting 8

9 Methods o To establish clarity and standardized reporting of findings, the PRISMA checklist was used o PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) Statement Developed by international group of experts 27-item checklist ensures standard method for transparent and complete reporting Increasingly being endorsed by and adhered to for journal submissions 9

10 Inclusion criteria Peer-reviewed and published in English from 2000 through August 2012 Reported original research in which investigators provide incidence or prevalence of MDRO colonization in nursing homes Specifically focused on elderly patients Exclusion criteria Outbreaks Long-term acute care hospitals and extended or LTC units within hospitals Nursing homes that are part of a hospital system Studies that identified colonization/infection through clinical cultures Studies primarily focusing on the molecular epidemiology or antibiotic susceptibility of organisms with no estimates of overall burden of infections 10

11 Selection and abstraction process Search conducted in Medline by primary reviewer Clostridium difficile /exp OR Vancomycin Resistance /exp OR Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus /exp OR Drug Resistance, Microbial /exp AND Nursing Homes /exp OR Long-Term Care /exp OR Skilled Nursing Facilities /exp Retrieved titles and abstract screened for potentially relevant studies that met the inclusion criteria Abstracts and full text of these potentially relevant studies reviewed by two secondary reviewers to confirm eligibility Reference lists of retrieved articles and relevant review articles assessed for additional studies 11

12 Data Extraction Descriptive Study Design Screening Methods Results Author Type of study Diagnostic Method Participation Rate Date of Publication Country Sample Size Multisite Description of NH(s) Eligibility Study period Sampling method Definitions Specified (if any) Specimen Sites Additional Info on Specimen collection Prevalence/ Incidence Risk Factors Presented Antibiotic Susceptability Data Quality Score 12

13 Quality appraisal Checklist adapted from a systematic review conducted by Dulon and colleagues 1. Outcome definition: Was a valid definition given of the outcome for the outcome for prevalence, colonization and infection? 2. Time unit: Was the endpoint calculated for a standardized time unit (daily, monthly, yearly)? 3. Target population: Was the target population specified by inclusion or eligibility criteria? 4. Participants: Was the number of included cases reported, e.g. by describing the numbers and reasons for non-participation? 5. Observer bias: Were sources of potential imprecision reported and/or have consequences been discussed? 6. Screening procedure: Were measures described that has been undertaken for standardization of screening measurements? Dulon, M., et al., MRSA prevalence in European healthcare settings: a review. BMC Infect Dis, : p

14 Methods: Meta Analysis Used a random effects meta analysis model to estimate a pooled prevalence of colonization across studies Assessed heterogeneity using Cochran Q and I² statistics Conducted sensitivity analyses to examine effect of potential sources of heterogeneity across studies according to study characteristics Data analysis conducted using Comprehensive Meta- Analysis (CMA) statistical software (Biostat, Inc).

24 Conclusions The burden of MRSA in NH is substantial Prevalence of colonization varied greatly Differences in prevalence across geographic regions Methodological differences between studies Standardization of surveillance methods and outcomes is needed to allow for comparisons between different studies

25 Limitations Potential for publication bias Only included studies published in English in peerreviewed literature Search of only one database using keywords Excluded studies based on clinical isolates
