H.A.C.ING VAE’S
FHA 5.3.18
Medical Center Navicent Health Macon, GA
- 637 beds, 5 adult ICUs (86 beds)
- 2015- 94 VAE, 2016- 74 VAE
- 2015- 10 VAP, 2016- 8 VAP
Aim and Background
Ai Aim How m uch im provem ent? By w hen? For w hom ?
By 9/ 30/ 17, decrease Ventilator Associated Events 30% (from 74 to 52) in the five adult ICUs.
Background Why this project and w hy now ? While VAP rate <10, the five adult ICUs under- performed compared to NDNQI and HRET HIIN benchmarks. Ventilator utilization rates
- n the rise with higher
acuity; need to focus on preventing VAE.
9
“But, our PVAP rate is low!”
10
- Resting on our laurels of low VAP for several years →
complacency in 5 adult ICUs (86 beds)
- In 2013, CDC criteria changed to VAE= VAC+ IVAC+ PVAP
– PVAP no longer the only issue- keeping up with the change
- Impact of bench-marking:
– HRET HIIN: our VAE rates nearly double average of hosp average – NDNQI-4Q under-performance

% out-perform target
Methodology
- VAE task force with MD, executives,
interdisciplinary
- Use of 6 sigma DMAIC and PDSA/ rapid
cycle change
- Deep dive RCA trends
- Data- benchmark HRET HIIN, NDNQI
- Process and outcome measures
- Multi-modal education
- Front line and leader engagement
- Participation in HRET HIIN AI fellowship
- Outcome Measures:
How is the system perform ing? What are the results? – VAE incidence overall and by unit – VAC, IVAC, VAP incidence rates – Benchmark comparisons: GHA HEN, HRET HIIN, NDNQI
- Process Measures:
Are the parts or steps in the process or system perform ing as planned? – CLRT, Turn q 2 hr, HOB ≥30◦, CHG, oral hygiene, hi-lo ETT, separate oral/ ETT suction- observation/ interview/ documentation audit
- Balance Measures:
What happened to the system as w e im prove the outcom e and process m easures? – Ventilator days – LOS for ventilator patients – Mortality rate for ventilator patients

Key Changes Since Fall 2016
- Re-education
- Documentation parameters PEEP FiO2
- Transport protocol
- PAD (Pain Agitation Delirium) protocol
- Focus on basics- hand hygiene, vent bundle,
mobility
- Hardwired accountability
- Adequate material resources

VAE Improvement Timeline
Data driven timeline
16
Communication of “burning platform” of VAE reduction
- Tied to goals in performance review
- Post/ review data, transparency
- Committees, staff meetings, huddles
- Involvement of front line staff in solutions/
engagement
- Education of all levels
- Paying attention to expected behavior
- Administrative, interdisciplinary involvement-
incorporated into rounds- PAD, bundles, mobility, de-escalation, alternatives
- Newsletters, BB, signs, “Potty Training”

ICU mobility: with a smile on his face!
Cost savings
- Reduced VAE by 60% (2016-78, 2017-31)
- Met GHA HRET HIIN two year 20% target
reduction in year one (our baseline was 84)
- HRET HIIN cost calculator= $ 21,000 / ”VAC”
- Total estimated savings due to ↓VAE:
$987,000
Benchmarking
- HRET HIIN benchmarks both IVAC and
“VAC” (=CDC VAE definition which includes VAC, IVAC, VAP)
– VAC- ↑ FiO2 and/or PEEP for ≥ 2 days – IVAC- ↑ FiO2 and/or PEEP for ≥ 2 days, infection S/S (T >38, wbc>12,000), antibiotics started in infection window/ continued for 4 days

- Lessons Learned
Reflections/ Lessons Learned
- Lessons Learned
Overcom ing key barriers
- build in EMR- refocus IT and engage Executive Sponsors
- cultural change to embrace need to reduce VAE- leadership change, benchmark
comparison, reporting through HARM Committee structure
- prior unsuccessful attempt to implement mobility and PAD- nurse-driven mobility
protocol, PAD in EMR
Surprises
- Key clinical leaders reluctant to adopt changes
- Failure of timely documentation triggered VAEs
- Insufficient working suction regulators, bedside patient chairs, among others
- LOS and vent days did NOT drop as VAE rate decreased. We did see a 12%↓in vent≥3d mortality
Advice
- Complete RCAs and establish trends, use national benchmarks to drive
initiatives
- Evaluate documentation to assure not causative of VAE
- Develop transport protocol to eliminate procedure related breaks in circuit
- Keep an eye on all KPIs
37
- Firm up PAD utilization via
intensivists, Pharmacy, Nursing staff
- Implement mobility protocol
- Build EMR reports for PAD/ mobility
- Expand usage of hi-lo ETT.
- Regular status check with front line
staff re barriers and needed resources.
38
2018 action items:
2018 continued
- Real time hip phone for alerts for vent
setting changes in PEEP and FiO2
- Expand electronic hand hygiene
monitoring system from CVICU to all ICUs
- Ongoing education and monitoring
- Intensivist model, including NP, expanded
to 3 of 5 ICU’s
- Dedicated ICU PT’s to support mobility
