We are more than halfway to the final learning session for the initiative to significantly reduce CABSI. The majority of the teams have made improvements to the processes that impact the CABSI rate and improvements in these intermediate measures are a good proxy for the outcome measure. The PQCNC staff will meet with the NCHA Quality Center regarding ongoing support for the data repository. 10 teams responded to the survey about the possibility of continuing data collection to support your work, and all were interested in working with the Quality Center to monitor your data to reduce or eliminate these infections. Teams continue to meet monthly to share strategies that works as well as helping each other strategize about perceived roadblocks or hurdles.
