The Critical Care QI Team is monitoring VAPs in the ICUs. This project is in collaboration with CCVMS which is a cross Canada ICU collaborative project.

Data Collection Instructions

For all ICU patients except STB_CICU & STB_ACCU:

If a patient

• meet all criteria of a Acquired Diagnosis / Complication of VAP while in your unit

then

• Contact QI Officer & Local Manager. Use the "generate email" button include date of VAP
• make the following entry in tmp:

• Project: QAInf
• Item: VAP
• date_var: date (no time) positive sputum culture was sent to micro lab.

If a sputum culture is no longer a defining feature of VAP, do we need to change this to something else? We would definitely need to allow for not having a sputum culture date.

• When you have a VAP, enter DX and in TMP, and email the local manager and Effi Shams who is the Quality Officer for Cardiac Sciences.

The list of people to mail here is different than the one in STB CICU Collection Guide, so I brought that one over here and linked from there to make sure we can get it consistent.
