The Critical Care QI Team is monitoring Central Line Infections 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_CCU:

If a patient
  • develops a Complication of Central Line Infection while in your unit
  • the CLR-BSI is newly acquired on your unit and not already reported at different unit
  • there is a positive culture (no positive culture, don't code)
then
  • Project: QAInf
  • Item: CLI
  • date_var: date (no time) positive blood culture was sent to micro lab.

Don't use TMP as notes

Please do not enter this TMP until you have actually confirmed a DX of CLI exists. Use the Notes field on you laptop as a reminder if needed.

Patient from other ICU with Central Line and possibly CLI

If Patient already has a CLR-BSI present on admission to your unit:

  • in the admitting diagnosis field, enter Central Line Infection.
  • do not enter into Tmp project.
  • if the patient is from another ICU in the city, email the collector at that site to check if CLR_BSI was captured as a complication at that site.

Reporting

Sampling /Denominator

Template:Discussion presumably this uses Central Venous Catheter at 2300 (TISS Item)? Is this documented in a different article?

for which ICU do we report the CLI?

If a CLI develops within 48 hours of arriving at a second (or more) ICU, it is reported for the previous ICU

  1. How do you determine which unit to "credit with a bloodstream infection? E.G., on May 2nd the patient is in the medical ICU; on May 3 the patient is transferred to the coronary care unit; symptoms develop on May 4th. Which unit is "credited"?
    • The patient is followed for 48 hours AFTER TRANSFER to another ICU. If a BSI develops within that 48 hour period, the original ICU is "credited" with the infection.
