8 What Does it Mean to Our Patients? I began considering FMT after learning of it not from any of my team of excellent physicians, but from one of my daughters, a corporate tax attorney in DC, who loves to do research for fun took our googled recipe, protocol and stack of research papers denied permission to perform FMT My husband and I performed FMT by enema, at home, in March, 2012, after one of my physicians agreed to write the order for my husband s stool test. Within 24 hours, all symptoms disappeared, and two weeks later no c. diff or toxins were detected. 8
9 Three-Pronged Approach Hand Hygiene & Contact Precautions Ordering/Testing (IT Support) Environmental Cleaning 9
10 Ordering/Testing Data on C. diff ordering 7%: >48 hours 41%: Not collected Highest volume: Monday 10
11 Ordering/Testing Solution: PowerPlan replaces order in catalog Has indication for ordering Includes an auto-discontinue order Notifies provider if laxatives have been given Education: Isolation for suspicion Implemented on June 8,
12 What is an appropriate specimen? When should a sample be sent? Laxative free for 24 hours Stool scale 6 or 7 Milkshakes, Chocolate Syrup or Frosting Bristol Stool Scale Chocolate 12
13 Powerplan Results Implemented 6/8/17 34 C. diff orders were autocancelled in one month 5 Tests were reordered 3 Neg, 1 new HA, 1 recurrent» The 2 + Cases- testing reordered the next day June-December 2017: 414 C. diff tests were automatically cancelled Averaging: 56 canceled tests per month 13

18 Contact Precautions & Hand Hygiene Pink Sign Fatigue Develop new signs/color for C. diff precautions Hand hygiene campaign Discontinuation of Contact Precautions for MRSA Colonization 18
19 C. difficile and Hand Hygiene Wash with soap and water for C. diff (& infectious diarrhea) 19
20 Revised Isolation Signs Other signs (not pictured) include: Contact/Airborne Contact/Neutropenic Droplet Airborne Neutropenic Implemented: Jan
21 Contact Precautions & MRSA Organizations are moving away from using contact precautions on MRSA colonized patients. Two examples are provided below: Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center (VCUMC): After a yearlong trial in which most patients with MRSA were maintained under standard precautions only, there was no increase in MRSA infection rates. UCLA & Santa Monica Hospital: Analysis of the first year after discontinuation of routine contact precautions for MRSA found no evidence of increased rates of recovery of these organisms. 21
22 MRSA/Contact Precautions Pilot Began on October 1, 2017 Units with the EXCELLENT hand hygiene compliance rates >90% for 6 consecutive months Results of the pilot and a proposal were presented and approved by the Infection Prevention Committee 22
23 MRSA Pilot Results 680 isolation days avoided Patients NOT placed in isolation : Total: 224 Average: 6.86 Cost avoidance: $19,006 Hospital-onset MRSA bacteremias: Pre-Pilot period: 2 Oct Jan 2018: 2 Nasal Swab Conversions (critical care) Baseline period (Aug/Sept): 2 October: 1 November: 1 December: 1 (positive on previous admission but pt was not swabbed on admission so it s hospital onset, but not a true conversion) 23
24 MRSA Colonization D/C of Contact Precautions Pilot Proposal: Discontinue requirement of contact precautions on MRSA colonized patients on units meeting the following requirements: Hand hygiene compliance 90% for 4 consecutive months Units must maintain ongoing hand hygiene compliance of > 90% If compliance drops below 90% for 2 consecutive months, contact precautions will again be required for MRSA colonized patients 24
25 Hand Hygiene Goal: Improve overall HH Compliance Challenges: Locations of sinks Room entry/exit 25
26 Effective January 1, 2018 Any observation by TJC surveyors of individual failure to perform hand hygiene in the process of patient care will be cited as a deficiency resulting in a Requirement for Improvement (RFI) under Infection Prevention and Control (IC) Standard IC , EP 2 Our New Hand Hygiene Campaign 26
