● Hospital cost for patients with severe sepsis are 162% higher than any other diagnosis
● The challenges of flow of patients and bed availability ~ ICU beds costly
MANAGEMENT OF SEPSIS……WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT ?
![Page 7: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Severe sepsis ~ leading cause of death / non-coronary ICU
• Effects 10% of all ICU patients
• Substantial burden on hospital resources and represents a significant portion of our increased mortality, high ventilator usage, and long LOS
MANAGEMENT OF SEPSISWHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT ?

● Limited Resources■ Where could we reap the most benefit from a
EVIDENCE BASE PRACTICE / BEST PRACTICE initiative
■ What is reported to the public ~ insurance companies ?
♦ Hospital and ICU Mortality Rates ● 2007 ~ 25% = Diagnosis of Severe Sepsis
■ Case Mix Index 4.6 ■ Ave ICU LOS 9.86■ Total Hospital Ave. LOS 20.0

BUILDING A BUSINESS PLAN• VISION
– Provide cost effective, quality care
– Recognized as “Center for Excellence”
• CURRENT STATE – Critical Care ~ 20%
increase in vol. – ALOS in I.C.U. 4.6 days – ICU patients frequently
held in E.D.
• CHALLENGES – Address bed
availability– Reduce ALOS – Improve ability to meet
increased census demands
– Recruitment and retention of BEST nurses and physicians
![Page 10: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
BUSINESS STRATEGIES• INITATIVE
– Sepsis program• OPPORTUNITY
– Strengthen ED & ICU bond/teamwork
– Build a stronger relationship among our physicians
• RISK– Loss of support by
the team members • SUMMARY
– Improve patient care / outcomes
– Maintain profit margin
– Manage overcapacity issues
– Standardize care for severe sepsis patients

DEVELOPMENT• Heightened focus in 2007 at POMONA VALLEY
HOSPITAL MEDICAL CENTER to reduce mortality rate of 32.6% and ICU length of stay of 9.86 days
• ICU Physician champion and ICU nurse practitioner appointed to spearhead the project
• Formed a project leadership team – ED and ICU staff nurses, physician champion, ICU NP and ED CNS, added an ED physician champion

IMPLEMENTATION
• Standardized treatment of sepsis based on evidence-based guidelines: a) to include 6 – hour resuscitation bundle and 24 - hour management bundle, b) bed side tools: sepsis screening tools, checklists, pocket guides, remindersc) new central line cart placed in ED

IMPLEMENTATION …….
• ED RN to initiate the screening tool for sepsis • Identification of severe sepsis in the ED, begin
the implementation of the 6-hour bundle, ED physician to insert the central line and initiate the first set of severe sepsis orders
• ED checklist consists of the 6 hour bundle components to be initiated by ED RN

“GOLD ALERT”…ED BARRIERS
■ LACK OF NURSING STAFFProbability of an immediately available team to assume the care of the patient requiring Early Goal Directed Therapy (EGDT)
▪ Time & resource intensive protocol▪ Effect on ED throughput, which was
already overwhelmed▪ Development of the “Gold Alert”
![Page 25: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
“GOLD ALERT”…ED BARRIERS
EQUIPMENT ▪ Limited number of monitors with CVP
capability in the ED
▪ Use of the Central Line Cart in the ED,
▪ Need for monitoring CVP in the ED
![Page 26: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
“GOLD ALERT”…ED BARRIERS
■ Awareness that the Sepsis Order Set existed and how its use could help impact care of septic patients
■ Timely Edwards Catheter (PreSep) insertion
![Page 27: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
OTHER BARRIERS
• ED and ICU combined committee was a challenge
• No extra resources for sepsis , like for MI • Sepsis is not seen as an emergency like MI• ED does not see the mortality of sepsis• Physicians take ownership of patients
in the ED for short term
![Page 28: SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY › sites › main › files › file... · 2019-12-19 · SEPSIS - AN INSTITUTIONAL PRIORITY PEGGY CUSACK, RN, BSN DIRECTOR OF NURSING, CRITICAL](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041103/5f02e23e7e708231d4067c89/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
“GOLD ALERT”…STRATEGIES
• SECOND WAVE of EDUCATION- 2 hours didactic
class- Hand-on training on
CVP measurement- Shift to shift
huddles
• GOLD ALERT” ICU clinical support and coaching of bedside ED RN – assist CVP set up and monitoring; available resource 24/7
