Healthcare Patient Quality Improvement: Pre-procedure Antibiotic Administration Improvement with Compliance Training and Tools Workshops

The President of a hospital called LifeWings to get help improving teamwork and processes with the goal of improving the rate of administration of pre-procedure antibiotics.
Although the evidence is clear that the delivery of pre-procedure antibiotics has a dramatic effect on post-surgical infection rates, the hospital was having difficulty in getting compliance with the protocol. Post surgical infection rates were increasing.
The leadership wanted a way to create specific tools and better communication patterns in the pre-procedure brief to improve the culture of safety among their clinicians and increase the compliance rate of antibiotic administration.
Our compliance training and tools workshops delivered the results they sought. The hospital has achieved an increase in compliance, from 68% to 96%, and reduced post-surgical infections.
