CONTEXT
• This intervention took place at Netcare CBMH in a 16
bedded Neonatal Unit.
• Has support of Nursing Staff
• Neonatologist
• Management
• Maternity M & M committee
PROBLEM
• Central lines are an essential part of neonatal care
• Neonatal CLABSI is a significant cause of morbidity and
mortality, increased treatment costs, prolonged
hospitalisation, anxiety for both parents and staff
• Despite the introduction of a central line insertion bundle in
June 2012, CLABSI continued to be a challenge
AIM
To elevate the level of care and
reduce the infection rate to zero
(from one every other month)
as soon as possible
for as long as possible
How was it implemented?
1. Learn from best practices 1. Staff and IPP
engagement
2. Reading from best practices in literature
2. Tools Generated
1. Blue central line insertion checklist
2. Yellow neonatal specific BCA campaign daily
monitoring form
3. Strategy
1. Daily audits
2. Feedback sessions at the PAB, ABS and maternity M&M
meetings
3. Staff awareness charts
4. Checking
1. Welsh Cross chart
2. Development of run charts
5. In order to Sustain
1. Collaboration with nursing and Dr’s
2. Continuous monitoring of days
between
INTERVENTION
• Central line infection rate assessed – previous record was 131
days between infections
• Jan 2014 – introduced a neonatal specific daily monitoring form
• A stringent hand hygiene campaign was commenced
• Central line assessed daily – dressing to remain clean, dry and
intact, the necessity for line & length of time in situ reviewed.
• Strategies: vigilant checking and measuring by means of a run
chart depicting days between infections & Welsh Crosses to
assess compliance with processes
INTERVENTION
Placement of lines:
• Use umbilical lines in exceptional circumstances only
• PICC lines - TPN and maintenance fluids
• Peripheral lines – used for antibiotics, blood products
• Avoid femoral lines altogether
Aseptic technique for all interventions
CENTRAL LINE INSERTION CHECKLIST
• Insertion site risk-assessed
• Practitioner gowned and gloved
• Patient covered with sterile drape
• Skin cleaned with 0.5% chlorhexidine in 70% isopropyl
alcohol
• Sterility maintained
• Sterile dressing applied
BCA CAMPAIGN DAILY MONITORING FORM
• Babies’ risk factors – (prematurity / immuno-compromised /
ruptured membranes, etc)
• The day the device was inserted
• The day the device was removed
• Type of device used – UVC , PICC
• Daily review of necessity of the line
• Reason for the device remaining in situ is documented
AUDITS
• 845 audits were done – became part of daily routine
• Unit manager and clinical nurse specialist did the initial
audits
• Central line insertion checklist is now performed by the
staff member allocated to the baby
• BCA daily monitoring form audit done by the shift leader
• Hand hygiene weekly audits performed by the hand
hygiene champion and students

WHAT DID WE LEARN?
Lessons learned
• Collaboration with colleagues is essential
• New processes need to be monitored and
measured daily – vigilance!
• Scepticism can be converted to success if you
have resolve and the results to prove it
Message to others
• Displaying, sharing and discussing information is
vital in order to keep everyone motivated to
improve patient care
