Abstract:
Infusion supplies are an important thing that must be considered by the hospital in meeting the needs of patients. This study aims to predict the need for infusion of 0.9% 500 ml of NaCl and 5% 500 ml glucose infusion at Sanglah General Hospital (RSUP) Sanglah so that the hospital can estimate the many infusions needed for the next six months. The forecasting method used in this research is the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) time series method. The results of this study indicate the need for infusion at Sanglah Hospital as many as 154,831 units for infusion of 0.9% NaCl 500 ml and 8,249 units for 5% 500 ml Glucose infusion.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Infusion start time, completion time, and interruptions are the key data points needed in both area under the concentration–time curve (AUC)- and trough-based vancomycin therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM). However, little is known about the accuracy of documented times of drug infusions compared with automated recorded events in the infusion pump system. A traditional approach of direct observations of infusion practice is resource intensive and impractical to scale. We need a new methodology to leverage the infusion pump event logs to understand the prevalence of timestamp discrepancies as documented in the electronic health records (EHRs). Objectives We aimed to analyze timestamp discrepancies between EHR documentation (the information used for clinical decision making) and pump event logs (actual administration process) for vancomycin treatment as it may lead to suboptimal data used for therapeutic decisions. Methods We used process mining to study the conformance between pump event logs and EHR data for a single hospital in the United States from July to December 2016. An algorithm was developed to link records belonging to the same infusions. We analyzed discrepancies in infusion start time, completion time, and interruptions. Results Of the 1,858 infusions, 19.1% had infusion start time discrepancy more than ± 10 minutes. Of the 487 infusion interruptions, 2.5% lasted for more than 20 minutes before the infusion resumed. 24.2% (312 of 1,287) of 1-hour infusions and 32% (114 of 359) of 2-hour infusions had over 10-minute completion time discrepancy. We believe those discrepancies are inherent part of the current EHR documentation process commonly found in hospitals, not unique to the care facility under study. Conclusion We demonstrated pump event logs and EHR data can be utilized to study time discrepancies in infusion administration at scale. Such discrepancy should be further investigated at different hospitals to address the prevalence of the problem and improvement effort.

Abstract:
Abstract Background Smart infusion pumps affect workflows as they add alerts and alarms in an information-rich clinical environment where alarm fatigue is already a major concern. An analytic approach is needed to quantify the impact of these alerts and alarms on nursing workflows and patient safety. Objectives To analyze a detailed infusion dataset from a smart infusion pump system and identify contributing factors for infusion programming alerts, operational alarms, and alarm resolution times. Methods We analyzed detailed infusion pump data across four hospitals in a health system for up to 1 year. The prevalence of alerts and alarms was grouped by infusion type and a selected list of 32 high-alert medications (HAMs). Logistic regression was used to explore the relationship between a set of risk factors and the occurrence of alerts and alarms. We used nonparametric tests to explore the relationship between alarm resolution times and a subset of predictor variables. Results The study dataset included 745,641 unique infusions with a total of 3,231,300 infusion events. Overall, 28.7% of all unique infusions had at least one operational alarm, and 2.1% of all unique infusions had at least one programming alert. Alarms averaged two per infusion, whereas at least one alert happened in every 48 unique infusions. Eight percent of alarms took over 4 minutes to resolve. Intravenous fluid infusions had the highest rate of error-state occurrence. HAMs had 1.64 more odds for alerts than the rest of the infusions. On average, HAMs had a higher alert rate than maintenance fluids. Conclusion Infusion pump alerts and alarms impact clinical care, as alerts and alarms by design interrupt clinical workflow. Our study showcases how hospital system leadership teams can leverage infusion pump informatics to prioritize quality improvement and patient safety initiatives pertaining to infusion practices.

Abstract:
Inventory planning is important to avoid the advantages or lack of goods. Hospitals as health care providers also have a share in the stock of goods, one of which is infusion. This study aims to optimize infusion supply at Sanglah Central General Hospital using Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) method with (q, r) model. The forecasting method used in forecasting infusion requirements at Sanglah Hospital is an Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) method. The results of this study indicate the amount of infusion of NaCl 0.9% 500 ml and 5% 500 ml glucose infusion which is expected to be ordered by Sanglah Hospital at the beginning of the booking period is 11,921 and 560 units. Sanglah Hospital need to re-order when the stock of infusion of NaCl 0.9% 500 ml touched the number 3,593 and 5% 500 ml glucose infusion stock touched 202 units. To anticipate the spike of demand, Sanglah Hospital is expected to provide infusion as a safety reserve of 190 units for infusion of NaCl type 0.9% 500 ml and 21 units for glucose type 5% 500 ml. The total inventory cost of the infusion to be issued by Sanglah Hospital in the planning of the infusion needs for 6 months is also obtained.

Abstract:
The phase specificity and short half-life of bleomycin make it likely that it would be more effective when administered by continuous infusion. This is supported by studies using cell lines, as well as by animal studies and clinical experience in humans. This study was conducted to compare the pharmacokinetics of intravenous (IV) and subcutaneous infusions of bleomycin. The serum concentrations of bleomycin were measured using a sensitive and specific radioimmunoassay. The results demonstrate similar plasma concentrations and area under the curve for both routes. The subcutaneous infusions were well tolerated, without local discomfort or excoriation. Subcutaneous infusion of bleomycin may thus offer a practical alternative to IV infusions and can be administered to patients who are ambulatory and out of hospital.

Abstract:
Background: Intravenous infusions (IV) are a rapid mean of administering drugs. Hospitals are commonplace for their use, but at the same time they have many serious potential complications. This study aims to know the justified use of intravenous infusion among patients of a tertiary care hospital and awareness about its use.Methods: It was a cross-sectional study in which 249 subjects were conveniently studied. Nil per oral, severity of dehydration, vomiting, and diarrhoea was used as confirmatory criteria for using IV Infusions. Questionnaire with verbal consent was used to collect the data. Descriptive statistical analysis was applied to analyse the data and presented as means, frequencies and percentages in the form of tables and figure.Results: Total n249 (100%) subjects, n68 (27.3%) males and n181 (72.7%) females with average age was 24.05±14.21 years participated. Among n116 (46.6%) irrational users, females n76 (30.5%) were more then males n40 (16.1) with significant difference, p= 0.018. However, no significant difference was found among other variables (age groups, profession, education, awareness and rational or irrational use of IV infusion). Majority n249, n204 (81.9%) were not aware of the IV infusion medication error and doctors were most common unjustified prescribers of IV infusion, n105 (90.5%).Conclusions: The study concluded with the more prevalent irrational IV infusion use in our setup. Doctors appeared the dominant prescriber of irrational IV infusion. This statement is astonishing and must not be overlooked. Female gender, adult age, under-grade patients and students are more exposed to irrational IV infusion.

Abstract:
IntroductionIntravenous medication administration has traditionally been regarded as error prone, with high potential for harm. A recent US multisite study revealed few potentially harmful errors despite a high overall error rate. However, there is limited evidence about infusion practices in England and how they relate to prevalence and types of error.ObjectivesTo determine the prevalence, types and severity of errors and discrepancies in infusion administration in English hospitals, and to explore sources of variation, including the contribution of smart pumps.MethodsWe conducted an observational point prevalence study of intravenous infusions in 16 National Health Service hospital trusts. Observers compared each infusion against the medication order and local policy. Deviations were classified as errors or discrepancies based on their potential for patient harm. Contextual issues and reasons for deviations were explored qualitatively during observer debriefs.ResultsData were collected from 1326 patients and 2008 infusions. Errors were observed in 231 infusions (11.5%, 95% CI 10.2% to 13.0%). Discrepancies were observed in 1065 infusions (53.0%, 95% CI 50.8% to 55.2%). Twenty-three errors (1.1% of all infusions) were considered potentially harmful; none were judged likely to prolong hospital stay or result in long-term harm. Types and prevalence of errors and discrepancies varied widely among trusts, as did local policies. Deviations from medication orders and local policies were sometimes made for efficiency or patient need. Smart pumps, as currently implemented, had little effect, with similar error rates observed in infusions delivered with and without a smart pump (10.3% vs 10.8%, p=0.8).ConclusionErrors and discrepancies are relatively common in everyday infusion administrations but most have low potential for patient harm. Better understanding of performance variability to strategically manage risk may be a more helpful tactic than striving to eliminate all deviations.

Abstract:
128 Background: EPOCH-based chemotherapy regimens are traditionally administered inpatient because they include a continuous 96-hour infusion. These admissions are costly, and disruptive to patients’ lives. We transitioned EPOCH-based chemotherapy regimens to an ambulatory infusion model at our safety-net hospital (Parkland Health and Hospital System, Dallas, TX), where patients visit the infusion center daily for 5 days. Methods: Guidelines for chemotherapy administration and educational materials were developed through a multidisciplinary collaboration with physicians, nursing, and pharmacy. Data were collected through chart review and the finance department. Project costs included purchase of portable infusion pumps and increasing outpatient infusion clinic capacity. Patient satisfaction with home infusions compared to hospitalization was measured on a Likert-type scale via direct-to-patient survey. Results: From 1/30/2017 through 1/30/2018, a total of 87 cycles of EPOCH-based chemotherapy were administered to 23 unique patients. 61 (70%) of these cycles were administered in the outpatient setting to 18 unique patients. There was a 58% reduction in drug costs in the outpatient setting due to lower drug acquisition cost. An estimated 336 days of hospital stay were avoided. There were no inappropriate prophylactic antimicrobial prescriptions and daily blood draws in the outpatient setting. 88% of survey responders reported > 3 (scale, 1 to 5) on a Likert-type scale for both overall experience with home infusions, and likelihood they would use home infusions again. No chemotherapy spills or extravasation occurred; 1 cycle was complicated by pump failure where chemotherapy was given at a slower rate than intended. Conclusions: Multiday EPOCH-based regimens were successfully and safely administered in an ambulatory setting at our safety net urban hospital. Patients reported satisfaction with the experience, and received less unnecessary interventions in the outpatient setting. Significant cost savings from avoided hospitalization and decreased drug acquisition cost were demonstrated.

Abstract:
e18648 Background: Computerized ambulatory drug delivery (CADD) pumps introduced in the 1980s made it possible to move infusion delivery from the hospital to the home. At Harbor-UCLA Medical Center, hundreds of scheduled chemotherapy admissions occur annually. The procurement and implementation of CADD pumps was a collaborative effort with members of pharmacy, nursing, physicians and administration. The implementation of CADD pumps for home chemotherapy demonstrated a cost-savings by decreasing the number of inpatient hospital days required for scheduled chemotherapy admissions. Methods: The first outpatient chemotherapy infusion by CADD pump began on 12/5/2017. Records from 12/5/2017 through 12/4/2018 (365 days) were reviewed to assess the benefit of CADD pumps, defined by inpatient hospital days avoided. Eight chemotherapy regimens were administered through outpatient CADD pumps; the equivalent number of inpatient hospital days were estimated based on inpatient hospital records between 2015 and 2017. The average number of hospital days that would have occurred inpatient per chemotherapy regimen was multiplied by the number of outpatient CADD pump chemotherapy infusions to estimate the number of inpatient hospital days avoided. Based on information provided by our hospital’s finance department, including reimbursement for inpatient and similar outpatient care, each hospital day avoided was estimated to provide $1,695 in cost-savings. On average, a typical hospitalization for infusional 5-FU chemotherapy was three days in length. Results: Over one year, 35 patients received a total of 178 outpatient CADD infusions. The average number of CADD infusions per patient was five. We estimated that 642 hospital bed days were saved over a 1-year period following the implementation of outpatient CADD pumps. With the estimate that each hospital bed day saved was valued at $1,695, we concluded a savings of $1.1 million dollars at our hospital through the implementation of CADD pumps within the first year. Conclusions: The implementation of CADD pumps for home chemotherapy demonstrated cost-savings by decreasing the number of inpatient hospital days required for scheduled chemotherapy admissions. This shift provides a superior value for the patient with equivalent treatment outpatient, spending less time in the healthcare setting, and reduced health care costs. [Table: see text]

Abstract:
Introdução: flebite é um dos eventos adversos presente em grande parte das instituições de saúde podendo comprometer a assistência ao paciente. A compreensão do tema faz-se importante para que melhor possam ser trabalhadas estratégias de prevenção e para tanto, é imprescindível conhecer suas características e eventuais associações relacionadas ao seu aparecimento. O estudo teve como objetivo geral avaliar as características dos pacientes com flebites notificadas e características desses eventos adversos em um hospital de médio porte em Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo. Material e Método: trata-se de um estudo quantitativo, descritivo, exploratório, retrospectivo e transversal, aprovado pelo Comitê de Ética em Pesquisa da Escola de Enfermagem de Ribeirão Preto/USP com coleta de dados das notificações realizadas entre 2012 a 2014. Na instituição hospitalar em que o estudo foi desenvolvido, 373 pacientes apresentaram 436 episódios de flebites. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um instrumento tendo como fonte de consulta as fichas de notificação e prontuários eletrônicos dos pacientes. Resultados: a média de flebite em 2012 foi de 2,13%(±0,009), em 2013 de 2,91%(±0,010) e em 2014 de 1,84%(±0,008), inferiores a 5%, que é o aceitável; a idade média dos pacientes foi de 59,3 anos sendo 50,7% do sexo feminino e 82,8% de cor branca. A Pneumonia foi o diagnóstico que mais levou à internação e 49,6% dos pacientes tinham hipertensão. Ocorreram 436 flebites com destaque a um paciente em que ocorreram cinco flebites no período de 30 dias; a classificação da flebite com maior ocorrência foi a de grau 2 (45,4%), o calibre do cateter mais utilizado foi o 22 G (29,7%); o local mais utilizado para punção dos acessos venosos foi o membro superior esquerdo (53,4%); os profissionais que mais realizaram as punções foram auxiliares/técnicos de enfermagem (62,6%). Quanto aos medicamentos utilizados na vigência das flebites, 96,2% eram antibióticos; o tempo de permanência do cateter desde sua inserção até o momento em a flebite apareceu foi de 48 horas (31,1); 20,9% das flebites notificadas eram de punções realizadas em outros serviços, que não a instituição onde o estudo foi realizado. Ocorreu variação nos resultados de exames coletados anterior e posteriormente à ocorrência da flebite como Hemoglobina, Glóbulos Brancos, Proteína C Reativa e Plaquetas; no entanto, apenas os dois últimos apresentaram resultados estatisticamente significantes (p=0,0095 e p=0,0001 respectivamente). Observa-se resultado estatisticamente significante (p=0,0172) na associação da flebite de grau 2 com o cateter de calibre n°22 G. Conclusão: o estudo agrega conhecimentos à área da enfermagem e é o primeiro abordando este tema realizado na instituição hospitalar. Apesar de o numero de flebite ser menor que o aceitável pela literatura, é preciso empenho e dedicação para que esse índice diminua ainda mais, pois isso influencia diretamente na qualidade da assistência e na segurança do paciente
Introduction: phlebitis is one of the adverse events presented in most part of health institutions that can put assistance to patients in danger. The comprehension of this theme made of great importance for a better worked prevention strategy and therefore, it is vital to know its characteristics and casual associations related to its appearance. The study has as general objective evaluate the phlebitis patients´characteristics notified and these adverse events characteristics in a medium-sized hospital in Ribeirão Preto, São Paulo. Material and Method: it is about a quantitative, descriptive, exploratory, retrospective and transversal study, approved by the Ethical Committee in Research from Nursing School in Ribeirão Preto/USP with the notification data collection applied out between 2012 to 2014. At the hospital institution which the study was developed, 373 patients presented 436 phlebitis episodes. The data were collected through an instrument having as source the notification records and patients electronical handbooks. Results: the phlebitis average in 2012 was 2,13%(±0,009), in 2013 2,91%(±0,010) and in 2014 1,84%(±0,008), inferior to 5%, which is acceptable; the mean age patients was 59,3 years old being 50,7 female and 82,8% white skin. Pneumonia was the diagnosis that took patients to hospital admission and 49,6% of the patients had hypertension. 436 phlebitis occurred with emphasis to one patient that had five phlebitis within 30 days; the phlebitis classification with higher occurrence was of degree 2 (45,4%), the most used caliber catheter was 22 G (29,7%); the most used for vein puncture access was the left upper limb (53,4%); the professional who most performed vein puncture were assistants/technical nursing (32,6%). According to the medications used during phlebitis moments, 96,2% were antibiotics; the time spent for the catheter since its insertion until the moment that the phlebitis appeared was 48 hours (31,1); 20,9% of notified phlebitis were from other punctures applied in other services, which were not in the institution that the study was conducted. It occurred variation in the collected exam results before and after the phlebitis occurrence like hemoglobin, white blood cells, Reactive Protein C; therefore, only the two last ones presented significant statistically results (p=0,0095 and p=0,0001 respectively). It is observed significant statistically results (p= 0,0172) in association with phlebitis of degree 2 with the catheter of caliber number 22 G. Conclusion: the study adds knowledge to the area of nursing and it is the first approaching theme that has happened in the hospital institution. Despite the number of phlebitis being smaller than the acceptable by the literature, it is necessary effort and dedication to this index diminish even more, because of that it directly influences in the patient´s assistance quality and the patient´s security

Abstract:
Medical devices are used to diagnose, treat, or prevent a disease or abnormal physical condition without any chemical action in the body. They can also result in unintended incidents and other errors. This thesis was divided into three chapters: i) a systematic review on the recognition, reporting and resolution of incidents related to medical devices and other health technologies; ii) telephone interviews with physicians and registered nurses (RNs) to solicit information on the resolution, reporting and resolution of medical device-related incidents based on their professional experience; and iii) a case study to review the continuous quality improvement (CQI) data retrieved from the wireless smart infusion pump system at The Ottawa Hospital (TOH) and to propose a CQI data analysis process. The systematic review included 30 studies on factors that influence the recognition, reporting and resolution of incidents in hospitals and interventions to improve patient safety. Central themes that emerged for incident reporting were personal attitudes, awareness and perception of incident reporting systems, organizational culture, and feedback to healthcare professionals. In our telephone interviews, physicians and RNs attributed incident recognition to devices not operating based on the manufacturer’s instructions, and to the hospital staff’s knowledge of and professional experience with the use of the medical device, and clinical manifestations of patients. Suggestions to improve medical device safety surveillance centered on education and training to ensure that the staff is able to use the medical device properly and know what would be considered an error, and how to report these errors. The results of the systematic review and interviews helped to inform the design of a medical device surveillance framework in a hospital setting. Our case study assessed the Dose Error Reduction Software compliance and frequency of soft and hard limit alerts with wireless smart infusion pump systems over a one year period. A CQI data analysis process to monitor the performance of wireless smart infusion pumps is proposed. The findings of this doctoral thesis can contribute to the development of a medical device surveillance system that would help to improve health care delivery and patient safety in a health care institution.

Full text
Abstract:
Clostridium difficile is one of the UK’s most common hospital acquired infections and there is anecdotal evidence to suggest that the bacteria are sensitive to the antibacterial properties of tea. Surprisingly, little research has been undertaken to characterise the inhibitory activity of aqueous tea infusions that are representative of traditional drinking habits. The antibacterial properties of tea are thought to be due to a group of polyphenols called catechins. However, their contribution to the inhibitory activity of tea infusions and their mechanism of action is still subject to debate. An antimicrobial assay, developed using Staphylococcus aureus as a model organism, was used to determine the antibacterial activity of a range of tea infusions against 75 clinical isolates of C. difficile that represented all the major strain ribotypes over 11 years. Green teas demonstrated more potent antibacterial activity than black teas and their activity was positively correlated with antioxidant power, hydrogen peroxide production, and catechin content. Furthermore, the country of origin of the tea affected the catechin content and subsequent antimicrobial activity of the infusion. Detailed chemical analysis using high performance liquid chromatography and counter current chromatography suggests that the antibacterial activity of tea is probably the result of synergistic interactions between a number of catechins rather than the activity of an individual compound. With regards to the mode of action by which tea inhibits C. difficile, electron microscopy studies of the bacterium treated with green tea revealed distinct changes to the outer cell structures of the bacteria. These changes were indicative of cell membrane blebbing, thus supporting the theory that tea compounds interact with the bacterial membrane and/or cell wall. Overall, this investigation concluded that tea infusions have inhibitory activity against C. difficile in vitro and may be useful in the treatment or prevention of C. difficile infections in vivo.

A pessoa idosa quando tem sua condição de saúde agudizada recorre aos serviços mais complexos de atenção, para amenizar o agravamento e risco de falência do organismo. Quando hospitalizado, o idoso, geralmente necessita de terapia endovenosa por acesso periférico, o que demanda cuidados específicos para prevenir complicações decorrentes. Esta pesquisa objetivou identificar complicações locais da terapia infusional por cateteres venosos periféricos e dispositivos de infusão em um período de cinco dias de permanência das punções venosas periféricas em idosos hospitalizados. O estudo caracterizou-se como quantitativo, prospectivo, descritivo e correlacional. Participaram da amostra 90 idosos hospitalizados em uma unidade de emergência adultos e duas unidades de tratamento clínico. As punções venosas periféricas foram observadas diariamente e as informações anotadas em instrumento de dados e aplicação de escala de dor e escala de flebites. Aspectos sociodemográficos, clínicos e prescrição de fármacos foram coletados dos prontuários. Os dados foram tabulados e armazenados no programa Microsoft Office Excel® e analisados no pacote estatístico Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, versão 20.0. Na análise descritiva foi utilizada frequência absoluta, relativa e medidas de dispersão. Entre os idosos participantes do estudo, 52,2% eram do sexo masculino, média de idade de 72 anos, 72,2% da unidade de emergência e 27,8% das clínicas médicas. Com relação aos diagnósticos, 21% possuíam doenças do aparelho digestivo e 27,8% diabetes mellitus. Em 82,2% houve algum tipo de evento relacionado às condições da pele: seca, com equimoses e presença de lesões. A punção no membro superior esquerdo ocorreu do primeiro ao terceiro dia em 49,2%, no quarto em 53,3% e no quinto dia em 58%. A taxa máxima de cateteres inseridos no antebraço foi de 55,3% no quarto dia e de 30% na mão no segundo dia. Em relação à punção com cateter, foi usado o calibre 20G: 49,2%, (n=90), 48,0% (n=77) e 49,3% (n=69). A cobertura com filme transparente foi utilizada em 50% das punções. Não foram estabilizados 81% dos cateteres quando aplicada cobertura transparente. Quanto às trocas das punções: 41,7% foram por perda acidental no quarto dia e68% por flebite no quinto dia. A taxa geral de flebites foi 21,7%, grau um em 58,8% e grau dois em 42,2%. Relação flebites e local da punção 41,2% no antebraço e 64,7% com cateteres 20G. Ocorrência de sangramento no sítio de inserção foi de 82%. Na análise inferencial, em cateteres 18G e 20G, 76,5% desenvolveram flebites, 64,7% estavam no membro superior esquerdo, com IC=95%, os quais apresentaram razão de chances de 2,09 para desenvolver essa infecção. Concluiu-se que o índice de flebites no quinto dia foi preocupante, assim como a relação com os cateteres mais calibrosos, falta de estabilização e sangramento local. É urgente e necessário um plano de educação continuada com os profissionais de enfermagem para ampliar seus olhares sobre as carências das pessoas idosas hospitalizadas, para que percebam a necessidade de uma avaliação clínica mais acurada durante a realização e manutenção das punções venosas periféricas, de maneira a garantir um cuidado eficiente.

Abstract : Elderly people when its health condition is exacerbated, appeals for more complex attention services, to ease the aggravation and risk of failure of the organism. When hospitalized, the elderly usually need intravenous access therapy, which requires specific care to prevent complications. This study aimed to identify local complications of infusion therapy by peripheral venous catheters and infusion devices over a five-day period of peripheral venous puncture in hospitalized elderly. The study was quantitative, prospective, descriptive and correlational. 90 elderly hospitalized in an adult emergency unit and two clinical treatment units participated in the study. Peripheral venous punctures were observed daily and the information noted in instrument data and application of pain scale and phlebitis scale. Socio-demographic, clinical and prescription of drugs aspects were collected from medical records. The data were tabulated and stored in the Microsoft Office Excel® program and analyzed in the statistical package Statistical Package for the Social Sciences, version 20.0. In the descriptive analysis were used absolute and relative frequencies and dispersion measurements. Among the elderly participants of the study, 52.2% were males, an average age of 72 years, 72.2% of the emergency unit and 27.8% of the medical clinics. Regarding to the diagnoses, 21% had diseases of the digestive system and 27.8% had diabetes mellitus. In 82.2% there was some type of event related to the skin conditions: dry, with ecchymosis and presence of lesions. Puncture in the left upper limb occurred from the first to the third day in 49.2%, in the fourth in 53.3% and in the fifth day in 58%. The maximum rate of catheters inserted in the forearm was 55.3% on the fourth day and 30% on the hand in the second day. Regarding catheter puncture, the 20G caliber was used: 49.2%, (n = 90), 48.0% (n = 77) and 49.3% (n = 69). The transparent film coating was used in 50% of the punctures. 81% of catheters were not stabilized when the transparent film coating was applied. Regarding to the puncture changes: 41.7% were by accidental loss on the fourth day and 68% by phlebitis on the fifth day. The global phlebitis rate was 21.7%, grade one at 58.8% and grade two at 42.2%. the Relationship between phlebitis and the puncture site was 41.2% in the forearm and64.7% with catheters 20G. Occurrence of bleeding at the insertion site was 82%. In the inferential analysis, in catheters 18G and 20G, 76.5% developed phlebitis, 64.7% were in the left upper limb, with IC = 95%, which presented 2.09 chances to develop this infection. It was concluded that the index of phlebitis on the fifth day was worrisome, as well as the relation with the catheters with higher caliber, lack of stabilization and local bleeding. A continuing education plan with nursing professionals is urgently needed to broaden their views on the needs of the hospitalized elderly, so that they can perceive the need for a more accurate clinical evaluation during the performance and maintenance of the peripheral venous punctures, in order to ensure efficient care.

Abstract:
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD
The emergence of virulent and drug-resistant bacterial strains such as methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a global public health burden. The World Health Organization (WHO) has placed MRSA and vancomycin-intermediate-sensitive S. aureus (VISA) and vancomycin-resistant S. aureus (VRSA) on a high global priority pathogens list of antibiotic-resistant bacteria to promote the research and development of novel and effective antibiotic therapeutic rationales. Uncomplicated S. aureus bacteraemia (e.g., mild skin infections) may be treatable with the conventional regimens of antibiotics, but resistance strains of the bacteria (e.g., invasive infections), often persist as a high load of bacterial DNA in blood, and has been linked to increased mortality in world populations, irrespective of country or location. Several lines of evidence imply that combinations of vancomycin (a glycopeptide antibiotic that targets cell wall synthesis) and ß-lactam antibiotics that target the penicillin-binding proteins (PBPs) improve clearance of MRSA bloodstream infections (BSIs).

Propósito: el paciente en estado crítico presenta con frecuencia hiperglicemia, de origen multifactorial. Este estado puede empeorar la evolución del paciente crítico, para ello existen muchas estrategias para mantener niveles de normoglicemia y/o glicemia en rangos no muy elevados; Estando en debate, cual es el nivel óptimo de glicemia. Para ello cada Unidad de Cuidados Críticos adopta un protocolo de Infusión de Insulina, para manejar estas hiperglicemias, en nuestra la de Cuidados Intensivos del Hospital Alberto Sabogal S., se adopto el protocolo de Krisnley, no existiendo un trabajo que evalúe la eficacia y seguridad del mismo, en nuestra población. El objetivo del presente estudio fue de evaluar la seguridad y eficacia del protocolo de administración de insulina en infusión continua, en enfermos críticos en la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos del Hospital Alberto Sabogal Sologuren - Callao. Método: Estudio Descriptico. Observacional. Retrospectivo. Se tomo una muestra de 50 pacientes, entre los meses de Diciembre 2007 a Agosto 2008; que ingresaron a la Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos, que tuvieran glicemias por encima de 200 mg/dL, a quienes se les inicio insulina en infusión para manejar glicemias entre 100 a 140 mg/dL. Se evaluo la eficacia, y seguridad de dicho protocolo. Resultados: el presente estudio de tipo retrospectivo recolecto información del Uso del Protocolo de Infusión de Insulina, que incluyo un total de 50 pacientes, 32 varones (64 %) y 18 mujeres (36 %). En relación a la Eficacia del protocolo, se hallo que el tiempo necesario para llegar a la glicemia deseada (101 – 140 mg/dL) fue de 8.6 ± 3.95 horas, cifras que se hallan por debajo de muchos otros estudios, que demuestra Alta Eficacia, para llegar a la glicemia deseada. En relación al mantenimiento de las glicemias en cifras óptimas, esta se logro en un 45.41 %, es decir del total de horas con infusión de insulina el 45 % se hallo en cifras de 101 – 140 mg/dL. En cuanto a la cantidad de horas por día, en las que el paciente se hallo con glicemias óptimas fue de 8.74 ± 2.5 horas/ día. Conclusión: el presente estudio muestra una eficacia aceptable del Protocolo de Infusión de Insulina en pacientes crítico, pero con una baja seguridad.

Abstract:
Metabolic alkalosis occurs in up 51% of abnormal acid-base samples in the hospital. It is characterized by a primary increase in bicarbonate concentration and is always associated with chloride depletion. In critically-ill patients, it is most often generated by diuretic administration, digestive losses, alkali administration, or rapid correction of hypercapnia. Even after all causal factor are removed, it can be maintained by blood volume depletion and potassium depletion. Metabolic alkalosis results in hypercapnia, hypoxaemia, cardiac arrhythmias, altered consciousness, and neuromuscular hyperexcitability. It is first treated by removing the causal factors, whenever possible. Maintaining factors must be reversed by sodium chloride and/or potassium chloride administration. Acetazolamide and renal replacement therapy, when given for specific indications, can also correct the alkalosis. Lysine and arginine chloride are no longer used. If metabolic alkalosis is severe or when other treatments are contraindicated or ineffective, hydrochloric acid infusion is useful. Dilute hydrochloric acid can be infused safely, provided adequate precautions are taken to prevent extravascular leakage, vessel damage, and tissue necrosis.

Abstract:
This book shows how the burgeoning commercial economy of western Europe in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries, alongside an emerging culture of Christian charity, led to the establishment of hundreds of hospitals and leper houses. Focusing on the county of Champagne, the book looks at the ways in which charitable organizations and individuals saw in these new institutions a means of infusing charitable giving and service with new social significance and heightened expectations of spiritual rewards. Hospitals served as visible symbols of piety and, as a result, were popular objects of benefaction. They also presented lay women and men with new penitential opportunities to personally perform the works of mercy, which many embraced as a way to earn salvation. At the same time, these establishments served a variety of functions beyond caring for the sick and the poor; as benefactors donated lands and money to them, hospitals became increasingly central to local economies, supplying loans, distributing food, and acting as landlords. In tracing the rise of the medieval hospital during a period of intense urbanization and the transition from a gift economy to a commercial one, the book makes clear how embedded this charitable institution was in the wider social, cultural, religious, and economic fabric of medieval life.

Abstract:
AbstractAvailability of more effective supportive therapies coupled with emergence of novel antineoplastic agents has facilitated administration of cancer treatments outside the hospital setting. Cancer treatments typically require multiple visits. Accordingly, it can be exhausting for patients and their caregivers who are already under a lot of stress including physical, emotional and financial strain, among others. Infusion centers allow providers to help patients better manage and control their disease and associated symptoms by providing a continuity of care throughout their medical need, enhancing continuity of care and improving compliance. Here, we described the major components required for successful operation of a cancer infusion center. The ultimate goal is to offer a patient-centered experience that improves the overall quality of delivered care at a sustainable cost.

Abstract:
SOAP II, a multi-center, randomized trial comparing dopamine to norepinephrine in treatment of shock, followed 1679 patients for 12 months. Patients with hypotension persisting despite fluid administration were randomized either to norepinephrine infusion or to dopamine infusion to restore normal blood pressure. The chapter discusses primary and secondary outcomes, including mortality rates in the ICU and hospital at 6 and 12 months. A predefined subgroup analysis was performed according to type of underlying shock (septic, cardiogenic, or hypovolemic). There was no significant difference between the dopamine group and the norepinephrine group in mortality rate or in ICU length of stay or need for organ support. The rate of arrhythmias was significantly higher in the dopamine group (24%) than in the norepinephrine group (12%). Among patients whose shock was cardiogenic in nature, the 28-day mortality was significantly higher in the dopamine group than in the norepinephrine group (p = 0.03).

Abstract:
Thirty-four patients with acute myocardial infarction were treated prospectively using a new strategy of pre-hospital intravenous streptokinase given by a physician-operated mobile intensive care unit. Prehospital treated patients who had experienced no previous myocardial infarction were compared to a similar group treated with streptokinase in-hospital. All patients underwent cardiac catheterization on day 6.Patients receiving streptokinase in the pre-hospital phase of acute myocardial infarction had smaller infarcts and better residual myocardial function than the group given streptokinase in-hospital in terms of peak creatine phosphokinase (900 v.1298 IU, p=0.023), ejection fraction (62 v. 55%, p=0,004), computer-derived dysfunction index (427 v. 727, p=0.003), and electrocardiographic QRS score (4.1 v. 6.4, p=0.001). The only difference between these groups at baseline was the duration of pain prior to initiation of streptokinase therapy (1.0 ± 0.4 hours vs. 1.9 ± 0.9 hours). There were no major complications related to pre-hospital administration of streptokinase.Pre-hospital stretokinase infusion is feasible, safe and practical. It reduces ischemia time because treatment is not delayed until hospital arrival and therapy limits infarct size. Thrombolytic therapy for acute myocardial infarction can be initiated at home and should not be limited to hospitalized patients.

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: Our goal was to assess the effect of primary treatment outcome (overall survival rate at hospital discharge, rate of sustained ROSC) and secondary outcomes (favorable neurological outcomes at hospital discharge and adverse events including hyperglycemia, insulin infusion, hypernatremia, infection, gastrointestinal bleeding, new or changing antibiotics, paresis, renal failure). Information sources: Two researchers (Zhou FW and Liu C) independently searched the PubMed, Embase, The Cochrane Library, Web of Science and China National Knowledge Internet (CNKI) databases from inception to 11 October, 2022 by using medical subject headings (MeSH), Emtree, and text word with no language limitations.
