Clinical protocols may decrease unnecessary variation in care and improve compliance with desirable therapies. We evaluated whether highly protocolized ICUs have superior patient outcomes compared with less highly protocolized ICUs.
Observational study in which participating ICUs completed a general assessment and enrolled new patients 1 day each week.
A total of 6,179 critically ill patients.
Fifty-nine ICUs in the United States Critical Illness and Injury Trials Group Critical Illness Outcomes Study.
None.
The primary exposure was the number of ICU protocols; the primary outcome was hospital mortality. A total of 5,809 participants were followed prospectively, and 5,454 patients in 57 ICUs had complete outcome data. The median number of protocols per ICU was 19 (interquartile range, 15-21.5). In single-variable analyses, there were no differences in ICU and hospital mortality, length of stay, use of mechanical ventilation, vasopressors, or continuous sedation among individuals in ICUs with a high versus low number of protocols. The lack of association was confirmed in adjusted multivariable analysis (p = 0.70). Protocol compliance with two ventilator management protocols was moderate and did not differ between ICUs with high versus low numbers of protocols for lung protective ventilation in acute respiratory distress syndrome (47% vs 52%; p = 0.28) and for spontaneous breathing trials (55% vs 51%; p = 0.27).
Clinical protocols are highly prevalent in U.S. ICUs. The presence of a greater number of protocols was not associated with protocol compliance or patient mortality.
临床方案可减少护理中不必要的差异,并提高对理想治疗方法的依从性。我们评估了高度规范化的重症监护病房(ICU)与规范化程度较低的ICU相比,患者结局是否更优。
一项观察性研究,参与研究的ICU完成一次综合评估,并每周有一天纳入新患者。
共有6179例危重症患者。
美国危重症与损伤试验组危重症结局研究中的59个ICU。
无。
主要暴露因素是ICU方案的数量;主要结局是医院死亡率。共有5809名参与者被前瞻性随访,57个ICU中的5454例患者有完整的结局数据。每个ICU方案的中位数为19个(四分位间距为15 - 21.5)。在单变量分析中,方案数量多与少的ICU患者在ICU死亡率、医院死亡率、住院时间、机械通气使用、血管升压药使用或持续镇静使用方面均无差异。在调整后的多变量分析中证实了这种缺乏关联的情况(p = 0.70)。对于两项呼吸机管理方案的方案依从性为中等,在急性呼吸窘迫综合征中,肺保护性通气的方案数量多与少的ICU之间(47%对52%;p = 0.28)以及自主呼吸试验方面(55%对51%;p = 0.27)并无差异。
临床方案在美国ICU中非常普遍。方案数量较多与方案依从性或患者死亡率无关。
