RESUMO

OBJECTIVES: The goal of this project was to evaluate and improve the ordering, administration, documentation, and monitoring of enteral nutrition therapies within the inpatient setting in a Veteran's Health Administration system. METHODS: An interdisciplinary team of clinicians reviewed the literature for best practices and revised the process for enteral nutrition support for hospitalized veterans. Interventions included training staff, revising workflows to include scanning patients and products, including enteral nutrition orders within the medication administration record (MAR), and using the existing bar code medication administration system for administration, documentation, and monitoring. Baseline and postprocess improvement outcomes over a year period were collected and analyzed for quality improvement opportunities. RESULTS: Before process change, only 60% (33/55) of reviewed enteral nutrition orders were documented and 40% (22/55) were not documented in the intake flowsheet of the electronic health record. In the year after adding enteral nutrition therapies to the MAR and using bar code scanning, a total of 3807 enteral nutrition products were evaluated. One hundred percent of patients were bar code scanned, 3106/3807 (82%) products were documented as given, 447/3807 (12%) were documented as held (with comments), 12/3807 (<1%) were documented as missing/unavailable, and 242/3807 (6%) were documented as refused. CONCLUSIONS: Inclusion of enteral nutrition order sets on the MAR and using bar code scanning technology resulted in sustained improvements in safety, administration, and documentation of enteral therapies for hospitalized veterans.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Safe Patient Handling and Mobility (SPHM) programs reduce staff injuries from lifting and repositioning patients. Early Mobility programs improve many patient-centered outcomes. Reframing SPHM equipment as mobilization tools can help safely mobilize hospitalized patients to their highest abilities. PROBLEM: Combining SPHM and Early Mobility programs is logical, but to date, no one has articulated the process of integration. INTERVENTION: A quality improvement process was developed at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care System to integrate an Early Exercise and Progressive Mobility initiative in the intensive care unit into an ongoing SPHM program using the Iowa Model for Evidence-Based Implementation. RESULTS: Integration of these programs was possible through extensive collaboration between stakeholders throughout planning, implementation, and refinement phases. Interdisciplinary Early Exercise and Progressive Mobility simulation training, standardized assessment, communication of patient status, and appropriate equipment use facilitated staff confidence to safely mobilize patients. CONCLUSIONS: Successful integration of Early Exercise and Progressive Mobility and SPHM was achieved at the Phoenix Veterans Affairs Health Care System.
