| الوصف: | Background An estimated 70% of hospital-associated infections (HAIs) could be prevented if evidenced-based practices were consistently implemented. However, a recent study found that only 15% of health facilities globally met WHO infection prevention and control (IPC) minimum requirements. Strategies are needed to close this “Know-Do-Gap”, particularly in low-middle income countries. A community of practice (CoP) is a collaborative forum for sharing knowledge and approaches to improve care delivery. We established a CoP quality improvement initiative in Vietnam to spread IPC best practices in Vietnamese hospitals. We developed a risk assessment tool to assess current practices and capacity in the surveillance and prevention of HAIs and to inform planning for quality improvement efforts. Methods A cross-sectional study was implemented in 4/2023 among 20 sub-national level hospitals in Vietnam prior to participation in the CoP. A facility assessment tool was developed with 3 domains: hospital characteristics, IPC capacity, and HAI prevention practices. Data was collected through self-reported questionnaires with data quality verification via online interviews with key staff from each facility. A scoring index was developed to stratify hospitals based on risk (Table 1 and 2), and a descriptive analysis was performed.Table 1:Hospital Infection Prevention and Control Capacity Scoring index. Abbreviations: IPC, infection prevention and control; HAI, hospital associated infections; SOP, standard operating procedures; CLABSI, central line associated blood stream infections; VAE, ventilator associated events; SSI, surgical site infections; ICU, intensive care unit. This table shows the weighed scoring index for assessing hospital infection control capacity. Each indicator was assigned a score from a range of options and a multiplier (1-3) was assigned based on the relative importance of the indicator.Table 2:Hospital Infection Control Prevention Practices Scoring Index. Abbreviations: SOP, standard operating ... |
