We are doing all this to prevent infections during C/S's (1-5).
1. Betadine scrub with the hand brush. 2. Continue doing the betadine prep with Duraprep. 3. Continue to use silver dressing but as provider preference, continue to change the top glove at the subq, continue to close the subq, and continue abx prep with Azithro. 4. We will start the Ancef study soon: randomized prospective look at 2000 v 3000 mg Ancef pre-op for obese pts. 5. We will change nothing for at least the next 6 months unless our infection rate requires a change

Tenncare Sterilization and Hysterectomy Consent Forms are/are not needed if the pt had a BSO already.
ARE! Hysterectomy consent forms should be signed prior to surgery, but can be signed the day of surgery. Prior sterilization does not negate the need for an ASH Consent form for hysterectomy, and failure to obtain prior to or at the time of surgery delays the submission of the claim for payment for VMG as well as VUMC.

Format and Timing of Daily Rounds is changing a little
The MFM chief will give sign out to the MFM attending at some point between 6:45-6:50. MFM rounds will not involve the entire team. The chief will give the MFM attending a brief update on all of the MFM patients and a photocopy of the written signout before leaving. The MFM attending update can occur outside of the rounding room if necessary so as to not disrupt patient handover.

4E nurses are doing a wonderful job of documenting the EPDS tool on our pp pts, but __% of our pts with >=13 are not recieving a consult __% of our pts with "thoughts of harming self" are not receiving a consult.
29% of our pts with >=13 are not recieving a consult. 37% of our pts with "thoughts of harming self" are not receiving a consult. Not necessarily bad, but documentation needs to be improved. There seems to be more of a comfort level with certain providers actually talking over this subject with their patients, but there is no documentation saying the patient declined to be seen by SW. There appears to be some comfort after talking with them, educating them on increasing signs to watch for, without initiating a consult.

The Handover tool has changed.
If the pt is a MFM/transport pt, resident practice pt, or private faculty pt being seen by the residents, then the resident writes the usual Peripartum Note and DOES NOT complete the faculty the Handover check boxes at the bottom of the Peripartum Note…those are now completed by the attending in the attestation. The resident sends the Peripartum Note to the attending who attests it using the new L&D Handover tool in the yellow drop down.
