INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: In a Danish Hospital, 70% of all activations of the rapid response team (RRT) in 2016 were related to adult patients with respiratory insufficiency. The most frequent RRT intervention was continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP). However, there was no systematic follow-up and patients could not receive CPAP outside of daytime hours. The aim of the study was to implement and evaluate a CPAP intervention to improve healthcare.
PATIENTS AND METHODS: A quality inter-professional intervention project was conducted. The interventions consisted of: theoretical and practical education in respiratory insufficiency (including use of CPAP) of nurses and physicians from the general wards, physiotherapists and staff from the RRT; development of an instruction leaflet and video; an update of the existing guidelines. The interventions entailed patients being able to receive CPAP a minimum of 3 times for 5-10min within a 24-h period. All RRT activations were registered and compared in a before-after evaluation of the intervention. Additionally, all staff groups received an electronic questionnaire after implementation.
RESULTS: After implementation, respiratory insufficiency was still the highest primary course for RRT activation. The use of CPAP increased, and the number of patients needing a transfer to the intensive care unit decreased. The response rate for the questionnaire was 44% (203 out of 465), and staff experienced new competences, improved inter-professional cooperation and improved healthcare. However, a substantial number of staff did not feel sufficiently trained or that the intervention was well-implemented.
CONCLUSION: The intervention entailed new competences for the staff, as well as improved system performance, inter-professional cooperation and healthcare. However, there is a need for continuous focus on the intervention.
