Ground Rules13
We learn from one another – “All teach, all learn”
Why reinvent the wheel? – Steal shamelessly
This is a transparent learning environment – Share Openly
All ideas/feedback are welcome and encouraged!
Overall Program Aim
The Expedition will provide insights from the hospitalist-led antibiotic stewardship initiative in partnership with the
Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that incorporated specific interventions to improve antibiotic use
into the process of patient care, such as an "antibiotic timeout" to facilitate/prompt de-escalation or
discontinuation of antibiotics through review of AB, dose, indication and expected duration.

Expedition Objectives
At the end of this Expedition, participants will be able to:
Describe the impact of overuse and misuse of antibiotics on costs of care, antimicrobial resistance and patient complications, including Clostridium difficile.
Establish a multidisciplinary focus to embed antibiotic stewardship into the process of care.
Identify and begin improving at least one key process to optimize antibiotic selection, dose, and duration of antibiotics in the patient care setting.

Lack of a Physician Champion
C suite not recognizing the impact of ASP, MDRO’s CDI
Lack of ID physicians; lack of expertise on site
Limited access to pharmacy in some clinical areas
Limited forum to communicate useful data to physicians
Staffing: Cuts, shortages, perceived time constraints
IT support; Ability to access/report useful data

Antimicrobial Stewardship-Why We MustHow We Can
CAPT Arjun Srinivasan, MD
Associate Director for Healthcare Associated
Infection Prevention Programs
Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion
Why the Imperative for Stewardship?
� Antibiotic overuse and misuse is fueling major threats to patient safety:
� Antibiotic resistance
� Clostridium difficile
� Adverse drug reactions
� When patients get antibiotics they don’t need they are exposed to totally preventable risks for bad outcomes.
3/19/2014
15
Why the Imperative for Stewardship?
� There is huge room for improvement in the way we use antibiotics.
� Recent CDC Vital Signs report showed that nearly 40% of hospital prescriptions for UTI and vancomycin were potentially inappropriate (no cultures done, given too long).
� That number is very consistent with many other studies over many years.
Why the Imperative for Stewardship?
� There is huge room for improvement in the way we use antibiotics.
� Vital Signs report also found that overall antibiotic use on medical-surgical wards at different hospitals varied by 300%.
� Even more variation in the use of some agents.
3/19/2014
16
Why the Imperative for Stewardship?
It Works!
� Published data demonstrate that improving antibiotic use can:
� Improve infection cure rates
� Reduce C. difficile rates
� Reduce antibiotic resistance
� Improve antibiotic dosing
� Save money
Recommendations for Antibiotic Stewardship Programs
� “CDC recommends that all hospitals implement an antibiotic stewardship program.”
� American Hospital Association also recommends antibiotic stewardship programs as a “Top 5” intervention for hospitals.
3/19/2014
17
How Do We Make It Happen?
� Hospitals don’t all look the same, and neither do stewardship programs.
� There must be flexibility in how programs are implemented.
� But, there are certain key elements that have been strongly associated with success.
Core Elements for Antibiotic Stewardship Programs
� Leadership commitment from administration
� Single leader responsible for outcomes
� Single pharmacy leader
� Specific improvement interventions
� Antibiotic use tracking
� Regular reporting on antibiotic use and resistance
� Educating providers on use and resistance
3/19/2014
18
Core Elements for Antibiotic Stewardship Programs
� CDC has posted details on these core elements, including some specific tips on how to implement them in:
� “Core Elements of Hospital Antibiotic Stewardship Programs”
� http://www.cdc.gov/getsmart/healthcare/implementation/core-elements.html
“Checklist”
� CDC has also developed an assessment tool or “checklist” that facilities can use to assess implementation of the core elements.
� Assessment tool can help identify areas for potential improvement.
3/19/2014
19
Some is not a number.Soon is not a time.
� We need to get specific with stewardship.
� We need all hospitals to implement antibiotic stewardship programs that incorporate the core elements that have proven to be key to success.
� We know a lot about what needs to be done and how to do it.
� We need to do it, now.

Engaging Frontline Providers
Scott Flanders, MD
Why Frontline Providers?
Stewardship team often has limited reach
“Top-down” initiatives important, but only step 1
– Formulary restriction
– Data Monitoring
Many practices needing change are hard to spot from “behind the front”
– Treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria
– Prolonged treatment duration
Not everyone has a stewardship program
40
3/19/2014
21
Who to Engage?
Groups where “culture” drives practice
– Surgical ICU
– Urology
– Orthopedic surgery, etc.
Non-physician team members
– PAs, NPs, nursing, clerical assistants
Patients
– Infection prevention (hand hygiene, device use)
– Indication, duration
HOSPITALISTS
41
Why Engage Hospitalists?
In the U.S., numbers of hospitalists are growing
– > 35,000
Many hospitals have hospitalist programs
– 2/3 of U.S. hospitals (over 90% if beds > 500)
In 2006 nearly 50% of all U.S. non-surgical Medicare discharges were cared for by hospitalists
Increasingly taking the lead on QI work
– They understand systems redesign
42
3/19/2014
22
Hospitalists and Antimicrobial Stewardship
Antimicrobial resistance and antibiotic complications (C.difficile) hit home
Templates, guidelines and checklists are commonplace in hospital medicine
Hospitalists must tackle issues with signouts, handoffs, and care transitions
– Dr X comfortable stopping the drug Dr Y started
There often isn’t anyone else to do this?!
43
What the #! Are Doctors Doing?
Antibiotic Use in U.S. Hospitals
56% of hospitalized patients received antibiotics
37% of use for urinary tract infection and Vancomycinuse could be improved
Three-fold variability in use between similar hospital wards
High variability in use for broad spectrum antibiotics
44

23
Drivers of Escalating Use
Hospitalized patients are ill
– Co-morbid conditions
– Immunosuppressed
The revolving door of the hospital
– 25% readmitted at 30 days
– Skilled nursing facilities
– Home IV antibiotics
– Healthcare associated infections
45
Drivers of Escalating Use
Discontinuities in care
– Within the hospital (ED-floor, ICU-floor)
– Within physician groups
– “Admitters / Rounders”
– Night coverage
– 5 days on, 5 days off
– Teaching hospitals: 80 hours / week, days off
– “They must have wanted the Meropenem for a good reason”
46
3/19/2014
24
Drivers of Escalating Use
Performance indicators
– CAP
– Antibiotics in 6 hours
– Value based purchasing (it matters!)
Early APPROPRIATE empiric antibiotics
– Improves mortality
– Sepsis, VAP, HCAP, etc.
– “Hit it hard, hit it early!”
47
Current Challenges
What is not happening reliably?
Allergy assessment
Review of prior culture results / antibiograms
Antibiotic restraint
– Double anaerobic coverage
– Treatment of asymptomatic bacteriuria
– Treatment of colonizing organisms
Re-consideration of the diagnosis
Narrowing coverage at 48-72 hours
Treating for an appropriate duration
48
3/19/2014
25
Misperceptions
They don’t care about this stuff
They already know all this stuff and choose not to do the “right” thing
They are too busy
They do not want to be bothered
They have more important problems they are working on
49
The Chagrin Factor50
3/19/2014
26
The Chagrin Factor
A physician is seeing a patient whose clinical picture and culture results could represent infection. Which outcome would a physician most like to avoid?
51
The Chagrin Factor
A) Antibiotics are withheld. The patient develops sepsis, shock, and requires transfer to the ICU
B) Antibiotics are given. The patient does well, but develops a rash, and C. difficile requiring metronidazole
52
3/19/2014
27
Where Do We Start?
Find a frontline provider champion
Try tackling one issue with one provider
Focus on common conditions
– UTI, CAP, Skin / Soft Tissue Infections
– These 3 drive 50% of all antibiotic use
– Start with de-escalation opportunities
Think about how to build changes into processes of care
Then expand
53
Driving Appropriate Use
Barriers identified in CDC/IHI Pilot Testing
Real-world issues
– Large / multiple groups make communication difficult
– Poor continuity / hand-offs
– Nurses are overwhelmed
– High patient loads
“Another !#$#% QI project?”
IT / CPOE
Time / ability to collect data
54
3/19/2014
28
Driving Appropriate Use
Navigating Barriers
Demonstrate the need to improve
– Even a sample of 10 charts can tell a story
Many providers like the help
Order sets / protocols help
Start small (sometimes very small)
Ask for feedback, de-brief after interventions
Share / celebrate successes
55
Bottom Line
We have big problems with antibiotic use in U.S. hospitals
Drivers of use are complex
Stewardship programs are critical…..
But frontline providers are key to widespread success
Barriers to engagement are surmountable
We need to act now
