Rationale: A goal of prophylaxis with antibiotics is to use an agent that is safe, cost-effective, and has a spectrum of action that covers most of the probable intraoperative contaminants for the operation. First or second-generation cephalosporins satisfy these criteria for most operations, although anaerobic coverage is needed for colon surgery. Vancomycin is not recommended for routine use because of the potential for development of antibiotic resistance, but is acceptable if a patient is allergic to beta-lactams, as are fluoroquinolones and clindamycin in selected situations. Type of Measure: Process Improvement Noted As: An increase in the rate. Specifications Manual for National Hospital Quality Measures SCIP-Inf 2-1 ischarges (2Q08) through (3Q08)

2 Numerator Statement: Number of surgical patients who received prophylactic antibiotics recommended for their specific surgical procedure. Included populations: Not Applicable xcluded Populations: None ata lements: Administration Route Allergy Oral s Vancomycin The antibiotic regimens described in the table which follows later in this section reflect the combined, published recommendations of the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, the Medical Letter, the Infectious iseases Society of America, the Sanford Guide to Antimicrobial Therapy 2001, and the Surgical Infection Society. enominator Statement: All selected surgical patients with no evidence of prior infection. Included Populations: An IC-9-CM of selected surgeries (refer to Appendix A, Table 5.10 for IC-9-CM codes). AN An IC-9-CM of selected surgeries (refer to Appendix A, Table for IC-9-CM codes). xcluded Populations: Patients who had a principal diagnosis suggestive of preoperative infectious diseases (refer to Appendix A, Table 5.09 for IC-9-CM codes). Patients who were receiving antibiotics within 24 hours prior to arrival (except colon surgery patients taking oral prophylactic antibiotics). Patients who were receiving antibiotics more than 24 hours prior to surgery (except colon surgery patients taking oral prophylactic antibiotics). Patients who did not receive any antibiotics before or during surgery, or within 24 hours after surgery end time (i.e., patient did not receive prophylactic antibiotics). Patients who did not receive any antibiotics during this hospitalization. Patients less than 18 years of age. Patients with physician/advanced practice nurse/physician assistant (physician/apn/pa) documented infection prior to surgical procedure of interest. Patients whose IC-9-CM principal procedure occurred prior to the date of admission. Patients whose IC-9-CM principal procedure was performed entirely by laparoscope. Patients involved in clinical trials. Patients who expired perioperatively. Patients who had a joint revision. Specifications Manual for National Hospital Quality Measures SCIP-Inf 2-2 ischarges (2Q08) through (3Q08)

3 Patients who have a length of Stay >120 days ata lements: Admission ate Administration ate Administration Time Received irthdate Clinical Trial ischarge ate IC-9-CM iagnosis Code IC-9-CM Infection Prior to Anesthesia Joint Revision Laparoscope Perioperative eath Surgery nd ate Surgery nd Time Surgery Start ate Surgical Incision Time Risk Adjustment: No ata Collection Approach: Retrospective data sources for required data elements include administrative data and medical records. ata Accuracy: Abstracted antibiotics are those administered from the time of arrival through the first 48 hours (72 hours for CAG or Other Cardiac Surgery) after the surgery end time. Refer to Appendix C, Table 2.1, which contains a complete listing of antibiotics. Measure Analysis Suggestions: Consideration may be given to relating this measure to SCIP- Inf-1 and 3 in order to evaluate which aspects of antibiotic prophylaxis would most benefit from an improvement effort. The process owners for selection of appropriate antibiotics could include physicians/apns/pas and hospital committees (i.e., QA, Infection Control, Pharmacy and Therapeutics, Surgical Section Subcommittees, etc.) any of which may choose to address this physician/apn/pa practice issue as part of a larger surgical infection prevention initiative. Sampling: Yes, for additional information see the Population and Sampling Specifications Section. ata Reported As: Overall aggregate rate for all surgeries and stratified rates by data element IC-9-CM, generated from count data reported as a proportion.
