1 Diana L Mark, RRT Pediatric Clinical Specialist Respiratory Care Wesley Medical Center Discuss the benefits for developing an outpatient bronchiolitis clinic. 1
2 Definition Inflammation of the bronchioles usually caused by a viral infection Etiology RSV Respiratory Syncytial Virus Other viruses parainfluenza, adenovirus, and metapneumovirus 2
3 Incidence Seasonal: November April Occurrence Rate Children under the age of 2; peak age of 2 8 months Older children/adults upper respiratory infection. Higher risk for immunocompromised or elderly Morbidity / Mortality Clinical Course: 5 7 days, coughing persists up to 2 3 weeks Increased Risk factors: Age, Prematurely, Congenital Heart Disease, Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia, other chronic conditions 3
4 Morbidity / Mortality Hospitalizations 1 3%; 17% of all infant hospitalizations Mechanical Ventilation 3 7% of admitted patients Mortality rate: 1 2% of all hospitalized patients; 3 4% for infants with underlying cardiac/pulmonary disease Transmission / Communicability Highly Communicable Direct contact with secretions, contact precautions (gloves, gowns, hand washing) Incubation period 2 5 days Viral shedding for 6 21 days after symptoms develop No immunity, 2 nd infection possible 4
5 Clinical Presentation History of URI, runny nose, cough, low grade fever Progresses to lower respiratory tract with paroxysmal cough and dyspnea within 1 2 hours Clinical Signs / Symptoms Low grade fever, tachypnea, tachycardia Increased work of breathing, retractions, nasal flaring Wheezing / crackles. Nasal secretions Irritability, Poor feeding Apnea (especially under 6 weeks) 5
6 CPG recommendations for Management Respiratory Therapy procedures Bronchodilator aerosols only if documented clinical improvement Albuterol vs. Racemic Epinephrine CPT not recommended Cool mist therapy Not recommended Aerosol therapy w/normal Saline Not recommended CPG recommendations for Management Other medications Antibiotics not recommended Inhaled steriods not recommended Antihistamines, Decongestants, Nasal vasoconstrictors not recommended Ribavirin not recommended 6
7 CPG Criteria for Hospital Admission Respiratory rate greater than 70 Inadequate PO intake O2 sats less than 91% on RA National Guideline Clearinghouse Cincinnati Children s Hospital Perlstein,et.al; Pediatrics, Vol. 104 No. 6 Dec. 99 Cochrane Library, Issue 4, 2001 Bronchodilators for bronchiolitis 7
8 Increased patient volumes Decreased bed availability Impact on staffing patterns Exhaust hospital resources 2007, Dixie Regional Medical Center, sister facility of Primary Children s Medical Center, Salt Lake City, Utah, began offering outpatient suctioning. 8
9 Most Bronchiolitis patients can be cared for in outpatient setting if oxygenation, respiratory secretions, and nutrition are managed. Families and Physicians were very interested in receiving outpatient treatment for Bronchiolitis. Decrease in the number and severity of patients admitted with Bronchilitis. Respiratory Care ED Physicians, Pediatricians, Family Practice Nursing Housekeeping Admitting Central Supply (materials management) Infection Control Engineering 9
10 Decrease number of patients admitted to the ED and inpatient for Bronchiolitis Determine type of treatment offered Assessment criteria Location Staffing Supplies / Equipment Budget 10
11 Barriers Obstacles Concerns Educational information, handouts, brochures Marketing Clinical workflow Go Live date Go Live checklist Development of clinic area Evaluation of parent and physician satisfaction Financial impact 11
12 Started as pilot project in Oct Part of ED Growth Initiative Care for infants 1yr or younger on an out pt basis Modeled after program at Primary Children's, Salt Lake City Anticipated 100 pts / 200 visits Service provided: Assessment by Respiratory therapist Nasal suctioning Parental education BRONCHIOLITIS: HOW TO SUCTION AND CARE FOR MY BABY AT HOME 12
13 Referrals: ED, physicians office, and post hospitalization Frequency : Up to 4 times a day Duration: Up to 7 days 13
14 General Patient Assessment Appetite Wet diapers Appearance Weight Temperature 14
15 Respiratory Assessment Score (RAS) Respiratory Rate Less than 50 or >or equal to 50 Accessory Muscle Use None / Retractions / Head or Abdominals Air Exchange Normal / Localized or Decreased / Multiple Areas Decreased Wheezes None or End Expiratory/ Entire Expiratory/ Entire Insp. & Exp. Disease Severity RAS 0 2 Normal, Mild RAS 3 Mild RAS 4 Moderate RAS 5 Mod Severe RAS 6 7 Severe 15
16 Deep nasal suctioning Nasal pharyngeal suctioning Reassess (RAS) post suction 16
17 Have patient evaluated emergently by ED physician if: * Patient is lethargic * Patient is pre-op or post-intervention RAS is 6 or greater * Patient has lost more than 10% of body wt. from previous wt. taken with past week * SpO2 < 88% Contact pt s primary care physician if you have concerns OR if: * Pt. has lost 5% body wt. from previous wt. taken within the past week * Pt eating much less than usual * Pt making urine much less than usual * Pt appears very tired 17
18 Contact pt. s primary care physician you have concerns OR if: * Pt. pre-intervention RAS is 5 or > * Pt. post-intervention RAS is 4 or > * Pt is < 2mos. and temp. is > * Pt. is 2 mos. or > and temp. is > * SpO2 is < 90% Information on Bronchiolitis Home Suctioning Information Instructions for Returning to the Clinic 18
