SUMMARY:IPRO HQIC Sepsis Affinity Group: Mid-to-large sized Hospitals
DESCRIPTION:  \nSepsis remains a national priority and is a complex and challenging condition to manage. Despite substantial attention to improvement\, an opportunity still exists to decrease sepsis-related morbidity and mortality. More than 1.7 million adults in the U.S develop sepsis every year\, leading to over 270\,000 deaths (CDC\, 2020). \nHospitals are committed to improving care\, outcomes\, and costs; however\, many have expressed they wrestle with where and how to start their quality improvement efforts. \nIPRO is launching a 6-month Sepsis Affinity Group to help support and provide a networking forum specifically for mid-to-large sized hospitals as they work to reduce sepsis-related harm. With the shared goal of accelerating learning and improvement\, participants will have access to content experts and a platform to share experiences\, evidence-based practices\, and tools\, as well as explore successes\, challenges and lessons learned to drive progress on sepsis-related harm. Some topics to be included are sepsis screening\, SEP-1 bundle compliance and reporting\, and more. \n  \nOn behalf of the IPRO HQIC team\, we look forward to your joining and working together with the Sepsis Affinity Group!

SUMMARY:Smoking Cessation- Care Teams Play a Key Role in Helping Patients Quit
DESCRIPTION:  \nSmoking leads to disease\, disability\, and harm in nearly every organ system. As with many chronic conditions\, reducing the impact of tobacco use can benefit from a team-based approach to care. \nPrevalence of tobacco use has increased during the pandemic in some areas\, while referral to evidence-based cessation programs has declined. Smoking cessation is helpful at any age\, and quitting improves health status\, and quality of life. \nIPRO QIN-QIO is hosting a discussion on Wednesday\, February 15\, at 1pm to explore how organizations can increase their referrals to evidence-based cessation programs and effectively engage community partners across the spectrum. \nAfter attending the session\, participants will be able to\, \n1. Recognize the impact of the pandemic on tobacco use\,\n2. Describe evidence-based strategies to assess tobacco use\, to provide cessation counseling\, and to refer for additional support\, and\n3. Establish a referral and feedback loop to track patients’ progress.

SUMMARY:Clostridioides difficile: Hospital Best Practices Shared and Outcomes Achieved
DESCRIPTION:In the US an estimated 12\,800 people died from Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) in 2017\, and the CDC Threat Report lists the infection as an urgent health issue. Unfortunately\, C. difficile is more common and severe in older people. Inappropriate antibiotic prescribing puts patients at risk for C. diff infections. More than half of all hospitalized patients get antibiotics during their hospital stays\, yet studies show that 30-50% of antibiotics are prescribed incorrectly in hospitals. \nIn this program you’ll hear from two hospital programs that have improved their C difficile rates with multidisciplinary best practice team interventions to increase patient safety. \nWho Should Attend: Nurses\, Physicians\, Infection Preventionists\, Pharmacists\, Quality and Patient Safety Professionals\, Clinical and Hospital Leaders
