No longer profitable, new antibiotics have not been created since 1987
Drug-resistant "superbugs" represent one of the gravest threats in the history of medicine, leading experts have warned.
The end of antibiotics era– is it the ultimate consequence?
The antibiotic crisis: accelerating
resistance & little new drug
development
In the last several years, a progressive increase in resistance among bacteria specially Gram-negative pathogens that was coupled with an alarming scarcity of new antibiotic classes in the pipelines.
Overuse of antibiotics
• 22.7 million kg of antibiotics prescribed each year in the US alone!
• Unnecessary prescriptions: common cold, bronchitis, asymptomatic bacteriuria.
• Antibiotic in animal food: Avoparcin, a glycopeptide that might have raised R to vanco,
Virginiamycin, a streptogramin used widely in US in poultry probably resulted in R to streptogramins ,
Quinolones used in animal food resulted in resistant salmonella and cambylobacter.
Relationship between antibiotic use, resistance, treatment failure, and healthcare burden

Increase in antibiotic use
Limited treatment alternatives
More antibiotics Increased mortality
Increased use of healthcare resources
Increased hospitalization
More antibiotics
Ineffective empiric therapy
Increased morbidity More antibiotics
Increase in resistant strains
MDRO (multidrug resistant organisms)
Nearly 2 million nosocomial infections / year in United States.
Of those patients, about 90,000 die as a result of their
infection.
More than 70% of these infections are duo to MDROs.
Why should we worry? • MDRO are dangerous
– More difficult to treat – May be more virulent – Increase mortality – Increase morbidity
• Resource-intensive – More expensive antibiotics – Increase length of hospitalization. – Increase demand for isolation-facilities
• Derived problems – Drug toxicity – Poorer quality of care due to single room isolation
Staph aureus (MRSA)
Pneumococci
Enterococci(VRE)
Gonococci
*Clostridium difficile
*Corynebacteria and

Why the program?
• More infection, longer hospitalization • Infection breaks your procedures. • HAI even longer, more cost, worse outcome. • Dx. And treatment cost more and more • Break the chain of infection (In USA 2 million patients have HAI, cost
around 5 Billion Dollars).
GOALS
• Prevention • Education about infection control guidelines. • Analysis bundle compliance rate and monitor the
implementation of bundle elements. • Institute appropriate measures to control infections including
appropriate use of isolation techniques, P.P.Es. and immunizations.
• Screening of patients transferred to our premises. • Coordination with all hospital departments.
GOALS • Surveillance:
• Identify baseline information about the frequency and type of health care associated infections
• Report to departments and outside agencies when necessary Including Public Health.
• Monitor hand hygiene compliance of direct care staff and conduct hand hygiene campaigns.
• Device associated infection in ICUs: The following device associated infections are monitored regularly in all ICUs according to the standards of National Nosocomial surveillance system (NNIS)
» Central Line Related Blood Stream Infections. » Ventilator Associated Pneumonia. » Urinary Tract Catheter Related Infections.
– Surgical Site Infections. – Surveillance of alert organisms, like: MRSA,VRE, clostridium difficile and other
multidrug resistant organisms • Environmental surveillance: using approved check list and findings and
recommendations should be sent to the concerned unit as a feed back.
GOALS
• Control • Identify patients and/or staff with communicable or
potentially communicable infections • Advise hospital staff of control procedures indicated • Serve as an information resource for all departments on
various disinfection and cleaning products and procedures • Outbreak Investigation / Management: Outbreak investigations done whenever there will be an alert
of unusual cluster based on surveillance data or any reporting of similar cases within a hospital.
GOALS • Construction Evaluation • Product Evaluation: • The following products are examples of products we evaluation:
– Antiseptic products. – Body cleansing wash cloths (2%chlorhexidine gluconate) – Alcohol Based Hand Rub – Environmental disinfection mobile units. – Wound dressing materials. – Catheter site dressing materials. – Ventilation devices. – MedicCleanAir.
Hand Hygiene (5moments)
• 1) Before touching. • 2)Before procedure. • 3)After Procedure (hand wash). • 4)After touching. • 5)After touching surrounding.
PPE • Wear the PPE outside the room, Remove
them in the room. • Transfer a patient with MDRO only if
necessary, and wearing surgical mask. (Infection Control Policy CL7246, 2011-2014)
Care Bundles
A bundle is a set of practices when performed
collectively, reliably and continuously, have been proven to improve patient outcomes.
Central line bundle
Insersion Maintenence • Optimal site • Hand hygiene • Full body droop, sterile area • Sterile gloves, gown and
towel • Surgical masks & cap
• Hand wash B4 accessing • Standard dressing
techniques • Change I.V. bags Q24 hrs • Change tubing Q72hrs
CENTRAL LINE BUNDLE
1.Hand hygiene 2.Maximal Barrier precautions upon insertion 3.Chlorehexidine Skin antisepsis (Chloroprep) 4.Optimal catheter site selection, with subclavian vein as the
preferred site for Non –Tunneled catheters. 5.Daily Review of line Necessity with prompt removal of
Unnecessary Lines
The key components of the Ventilator Bundle
1.Elevation of the Head of the Bed to between 30 and 45 degrees
2.Daily "Sedation Vacations" and Assessment of Readiness to Extubate.
3.Daily oral care with Chlorhexidine. 4.Peptic Ulcer Disease Prophylaxis (PUD). 5.Deep Venous Thrombosis Prophylaxis(DVT).
Indwelling Urinary Catheters Bundle
• Perform a daily review of the need for the urinary catheter. • Check the catheter has been continuously connected to the
drainage system. • Ensure patients are aware of their role in preventing urinary
tract infection. (Alternative bundle criterion - if the patient is unable to be made aware, Perform routine daily meatal hygiene).
• Regularly empty urinary drainage bags as separate
procedures, each into a clean container. • Perform hand hygiene, gloves and apron prior to each
catheter care procedure; on procedure completion, remove gloves and apron and perform hand hygiene again.
Blood & Body Fluid Exposure • Needle stick injury • Bite • Splash on M.M. • Cut
Role • Prevention: avoid recap, use appropriate barrier, Hand
hygiene • Wash • Eye splash station • Ova, Form • Staff clinic, or ED
Antimicrobial stewardship program
• Automatic stop order for antibiotic prophylaxis. • The pharmacy software.
Surveillance
• Ongoing collection of data Analysis & Interpretation Dissemination.
• Targeted. (area, service, procedure, organism,
site).
Purposes of Surveillance • Improve patient outcomes.
• Obtain “baseline” data. • Identify problems. • Evaluate and control interventions. • Monitor quality of infection control practices. • Educate health-care providers. • Determine research / study. • Convince the administration. • Satisfy regulatory / accreditation requirements.

Fact: Catheters and other invasive devices are the # 1 exogenous cause of hospital-onset infections. Actions:
use catheters only when essential use the correct catheter use proper insertion & catheter-care protocols remove catheters when not essential
Prevent Infection Step 2: Get the catheters out
Link to:IDSA Guidelnes for the Prevention of Intravascular Catheter-related Infections
Fact: Appropriate antimicrobial therapy saves lives. Actions:
Culture the patient Target empiric therapy to likely pathogens
and local antibiogram Target definitive therapy to known
pathogens and antimicrobial susceptibility test results
Diagnose & Treat Infection Effectively Step 3: Target the pathogen
Inappropriate Antimicrobial Therapy: Impact on Mortality
Step 3: Target the pathogen
Fact: Infectious diseases expert input improves the outcome of serious infections.
Diagnose & Treat Infection Effectively Step 4: Access the experts
Step 4: Access the experts
Fact: Programs to improve antimicrobial use are effective.
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 5: Practice Antimicrobial Control
A direct relationship between antibiotic consumption and antibiotic resistance
Bronzwaer et al. Emerg Infect Dis 2002; 8: 278-82
Fact: The prevalence of resistance can vary by time, locality, patient population, hospital unit, and length of stay.
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 6: Use local data
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 7: Treat infection, not
contamination Fact: A major cause of antimicrobial overuse is
“treatment” of contaminated cultures. Actions:
use proper antisepsis for blood & other cultures culture the blood, not the skin or catheter hub use proper methods to obtain & process all
cultures
Link to: CAP standards for specimen collection and management
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 8: Treat infection, not colonization
Fact: A major cause of antimicrobial overuse is treatment of colonization.
Actions:
treat bactraemia, not the catheter tip or hub treat pneumonia, not the tracheal aspirate treat urinary tract infection, not the indwelling
catheter
Link to: IDSA guideline for evaluating fever in critically ill adults
Fact: e.g.Vancomycin overuse promotes emergence, selection,and spread of resistant pathogens.
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 9: Know when to say “no” to vancomycin
Fact: Failure to stop unnecessary antimicrobial
treatment contributes to overuse and resistance.
Actions:
when infection is cured when cultures are negative and
infection is unlikely when infection is not diagnosed
Use Antimicrobials Wisely Step 10: Stop antimicrobial treatment
Prevent Transmission Step 11: Isolate the pathogen
Fact: Patient-to-patient spread of pathogens can be
prevented. Actions:
use standard infection control precautions contain infectious body fluids (use APPROPRIATE airborne/droplet/contact isolation
precautions)
when in doubt, consult infection control experts
Fact: Healthcare personnel can spread antimicrobial-resistant pathogens from patient-to-patient.
Prevent Transmission Step 12: Break the chain of
infection
