1 Collecting and Interpreting Stewardship Data: Breakout Session Michael S. Calderwood, MD, MPH Regional Hospital Epidemiologist, Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center March 20, 2019

2 None Disclosures

3 Outline Minutes: Examples of how to present stewardship data to senior leadership and frontline providers Minutes: Group discussion on what has and has not worked; opportunity share successes and challenges

4 Tracking and Reporting 1. Process Measures: A. Documentation of dose, duration, and indication B. Compliance with local disease treatment guidelines C. Obtaining cultures prior to treatment D. Modifying therapy appropriately based on microbiologic findings E. Acceptance rate for recommendations F. Number of dose and/or route optimizations 2. Outcome Measures: A. Total antibiotic expenditures B. Total days of therapy C. Mortality, Length of Stay, Readmission D. Rates of C. difficile E. Local antibiotic resistance rates

5 Quality Improvement Metrics for Evaluating Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs 10-member expert panel from US & Canada convened to develop standardized quality indicators to evaluate the impact of antimicrobial stewardship programs Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2012;33:500-6

6 Quality Improvement Metrics for Evaluating Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs 1. Days of therapy (DOT) per 1000 patient-days* 2. Number of patients with specific organisms that are drug resistant* 3. Mortality related to antimicrobial-resistant organisms 4. Conservable days of therapy among patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), skin and soft-tissue infections (SSTI), or sepsis and bloodstream infections (BSI) 5. Unplanned hospital readmission within 30 days after discharge from the hospital in which the most responsible diagnosis was one of CAP, SSTI, sepsis or BSI * Recommended for public reporting Infect Control Hosp Epidemiol 2012;33:500-6

7 Quality Improvement Metrics for Evaluating Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs 1. Days of therapy (DOT) per 1000 patient-days* 2. Number of patients with specific organisms that are drug resistant* 3. Mortality related to antimicrobial-resistant organisms 4. Conservable days of therapy among patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), skin and soft-tissue infections (SSTI), or sepsis and bloodstream infections (BSI) 5. Unplanned hospital readmission within 30 days after discharge from the hospital in which the most responsible diagnosis was one of CAP, SSTI, sepsis or BSI * Focus of CDC s Surveillance for Antibiotic Use and Antimicrobial Resistance

8 Quality Improvement Metrics for Evaluating Antimicrobial Stewardship Programs 19 member CDC-sponsored panel used a modified Delphi approach to select relevant metrics Clin Infect Dis 2017;64:377-83

10 1. Use local data as an opportunity to gain support and to drive change 2. Track data over time and provide feedback on performance Clin Infect Dis 2017;64:377-83

11 What you don t see here is cost, although this has historically been the easiest data to pull and can be important when speaking with hospital leadership about ASP funding Clin Infect Dis 2017;64:377-83

12 Data on Cost #1: Percent Change in Antimicrobial Expenditures Compared with Prior Fiscal Year Percent Increase 25.0% 20.0% 15.0% 10.0% 5.0% 0.0% -5.0% -10.0% 16.0% 13.3% 19.5% 2.7% 9.4% Program Launch -2.1% -5.1% 0.8% -0.4% 8.3% 0.3% -3.6% 3.4% -4.4% 6.7% Non-DH Data

20 Moving Beyond Cost: Where We Need to be Heading NQF-endorsed clinical quality measure The SAAR can be calculated for different patient care locations and antibiotics to provide a measure of the reported-to-predicted number of antimicrobialdays, where the predicted number is estimated using predictive models that take into account differences in patient care location and hospital characteristics Hospital bedsize, hospital number of ICU beds, medical school affiliation, location bedsize, and location type (ICU/ward, medical/medical surgical/surgical, adult/pediatric Currently no patient-level factors Clin Infect Dis 2018;67:179-85
