1.7 million patients

are infected with healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) every year¹

HAIs cost $30B

to the healthcare system annually¹

30% of all HAIs

are surgical site infections²

Did you know…

1.5 hour

increase in general surgery duration³

= 2X

increase in the probability of infectious complications³

Placeholder

Improve workflow and inventory

Reduce procedural variability through proper product selection and utilization
Improve productivity through streamlined and scalable instrument management and inventory distribution
Reduce supply costs through a perpetual inventory system and process standardization
Minimize errors and improve charge capture through supply automation

Placeholder

Reduce the risk for infection

Improve preoperative cleansing compliance though a patient reminder system
Limit immediate-use steam sterilization (IUSS) through proper resource and instrument management
Support infection control guidelines through skin prep protocol and proper instrument sterilization
Identify HAIs and streamline antimicrobial stewardship efforts through surveillance and process improvement

Goals Approach

IMPROVE WORKFLOW AND INVENTORY WHILE REDUCING THE RISK FOR INFECTION

Minimize the risk for infections
Optimize the OR and sterile processing department workflow and procedure costs
Streamline HAI identification for early intervention

ACTIONABLE INSIGHTS FROM AN INDUSTRY LEADER

Review and assess current practices and protocols for OR safety and efficiency
Provide recommendations based on baseline assessments of how BD solutions can address identified gaps and improve performance in people, processes and technologies

Integrating preoperative patient cleansing as a best practice helps to minimize the bacterial load on skin that can cause infection.

Integrating preoperative patient cleansing as a best practice helps to minimize the bacterial load on skin that can cause infection.

Selecting appropriate infection prevention products, such as surgical clippers, surgical skin prep and surgical hand scrubs—and using them according to their Instructions for Use—can help reduce the risk of bacterial contamination in the OR.

Having the correct, properly cleaned instruments available when needed and utilizing appropriate products during each procedure may reduce unnecessary costs in the OR, improve safety and outcomes, and reduce unnecessary surgical delays.

Facilitating timely patient intervention by identifying, monitoring and reporting healthcare-associated infections (HAIs) can help optimize house-wide surveillance and antimicrobial stewardship efforts.
