To replicate the success of the Michigan Keystone/John Hopkins project to reduce the mean CLABSI rate in 10 states to less than 1 per 1,000 catheter days by implementing CUSP in care hospital ICUs, non-ICU units, and pediatric units To improve safety culture in participating hospitals To disseminate CUSP educational modules to improve patient safety To partner with the CDC to support the measurement and timely feedback of CLABSI and other health care-acquired infection (HAI) data, and for SHAs to partner with based organizations to address the elimination of HAIs in a coordinated fashion NATIONAL PROJECT TEAM CONTRIBUTIONS Technical program and content support Tools for measuring and monitoring CLASBI and safety culture in ICUs and other units Faculty for all conference calls and face-to-face meetings Assigned advisors from Johns Hopkins and Michigan Keystone All conference call expenses Dedicated Web site and continually updated resources (manuals and tools) BENEFITS TO PARTICIPATING HOSPITALS We believe that all hospitals will benefit from participating in the CUSP and CLABSI reduction program. Each participating hospital ICU and non-ICU unit will learn how to apply the CUSP program and CLABSI-reduction tools. Participation will include access to expert faculty and data collection and monitoring support throughout the state’s two-year participation. This program is a quality improvement, in-service education program not subject to IRB requirements. Specifically, each participating hospital ICU and non-ICU unit will receive: Detailed manuals on CUSP and CLABSI prevention Dedicated and continually updated Web site, CUSP and CLABSI reduction tools and training, including tools for multidisciplinary rounding, and use of daily goal sheets Ongoing support through two calls each month: one call devoted to educational content and one focused on Q&A and team coaching A total of 3 face-to-face educational conferences for measuring and monitoring CLABSI and safety culture in units Expert faculty for conference calls and educational conferences Even hospitals that have achieved goals in CLABSI reduction will benefit from learning and applying CUSP. Successful teams have experienced marked improvement in effective teamwork and patient safety culture. An additional benefit has been substantial reduction in average length of stay and improvements in patient management.
