I am working on Evidence-based practice and processes with Fred. There are 7 specific questions that we are looking. I was working on the first question-How do leaders ensure policies and procedures and protocols used in the unit are based on nationally recognized evidence,standards and best practices? I think VAP and a lot of the SCIP stuff is working toward this.. Catheter assoc infection and how we prevent control it, wounds and foleys and prophylactic abx. There is a lot of info out there I am still going thru. The 2nd question re culture we have poster inservices, P&I studies twice a year with the SWATT team. I have some info for each question but will need further confirming input from the office.Like sources of evidence used based on pt population per question 1. Do we have data collection specific to sicu? At the face to face meeting next month I will be quicker at explaining than typing-not my strong point.
