Tests of Change • Test 1: Post CAUTI Deep Dive • Test 2: Appropriate use of Critical Output Monitoring • Test 3: Intubated patients admitted from ED with Foleys appropriately • Test 4: Urinary Retention Monitoring and Post Removal Protocol

Test 1: Post CAUTI Deep Dive • • Aim: To implement formal Root Cause Analysis review with care team (who provided care within 48 hours of the CAUTI) for identified CAUTI cases within 1 week unit notified of the case. • • Prediction: Increase collaboration amongst care team members for learning and prevention Identify trends Decrease in CAUTI number • Test: • Implement a timely (within 1 week), formal review of CAUTI cases for root cause(s). Infection Preventionist will send CAUTI information template with their portions completed and rest of the template is completed by unit designee (within 2 calendar days) as determined by the NM. Unit designee sends completed form to Infection Preventionist and shares with care team members and as a team is prepared to discuss missed opportunities and any trends. • Test Units: Any unit CAUTI identified

CAUTI Data • 2018: 43 CAUTI with 25 UA with reflex ordered • • Q 1: 11 CAUTI, 8 UA with reflex Q 2: 6 CAUTI, 5 UA with reflex Q 3: 14 CAUTI, 9 UA with reflex Q 4: 12 CAUTI, 3 reflex • 2019: 5 CAUTI with only one UA with reflex ordered.
