ICU and overall hospital Length of Stay. Compliance with EBP guidelines, as indicated by consistent use of order sets and protocols. VAP rates (risk stratification for Trauma & Neurosurgery patients) Implementation plan: The vent bundle orderset and protocol is for adult ICU patients and ED patients awaiting transfer.

Rello, et al. (2002) found that VAP increases a patient’s length of stay in the ICU by 6.1 days and hospitalization by 10.5 days. This study also found length of stay and the additional need for antibiotics significantly impact health care expenditures by adding an estimated $16,050 to $41,294 to the cost of a hospital admission.

Since this is happening in multiple ICU’s simultaneously, the cost avoidance is multiplied. We also decreased the amount of drugs delivered and decreased the daily cost of drugs in the ICU but we did not put a dollar amount on this since the sedation holiday portion of the project is still evolving and will be reported separately

Ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP) is the most widespread infection encountered in the intensive care unit and is associated with significant morbidity, mortality and cost (1). Ten to 20 percent of patients mechanically ventilated for greater than 48 hours will develop VAP, increasing mortality two-fold (1).

The quality improvement intervention was implemented with hopes to lower the incidence of VAP in the institution’s ICU and coronary care unit (CCU). There were no direct protocols for VAP prevention, and ICU procedures stated to provide oral care every 4 hours as needed. All patients admitted to ICU and CCU were included in this project.

Two of the six shared that since implementing the VAP bundle, the incidence of VAP in their ICUs has reduced to one case in the past 6 months. Their prior occurrence was 15 cases per quarter for one hospital and 13 for the other. Benefits: Implementing the VAP bundle protocol has many positive implications.
