OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effects of a quality improvement initiative regarding the administration of antibiotics at the time of obstetric anal sphincter injury (OASIS) repair.
METHODS: At University of Michigan-a tertiary care center in Ann Arbor, MI, USA, we implemented a quality improvement intervention aimed at administering a single dose of broad-spectrum antibiotics at the time of OASIS repair. Best practice recommendations and reminders were presented to the department. Cefazolin plus metronidazole or clindamycin plus gentamycin were the recommended antibiotics. The effects of this intervention were assessed based on a chart review of deliveries between January 4, 2014 and February 13, 2019, which included patient data both pre-initiative and post-initiative to compare the prevalence of antibiotic use at the time of OASIS repair.
RESULTS: Recommended antibiotic use increased from 0.3% (1/372) pre-initiative to 75.7% (106/140) post-initiative (P < 0.001), and any antibiotic use increased from 6.5% (24/372) to 82.9% (116/140, P < 0.001). The proportion of cases complicated by wound infection/breakdown decreased by 55% after the quality improvement intervention (3.2% pre-intervention vs 1.4% post-intervention, P = 0.22).
CONCLUSION: Following a departmental quality improvement intervention aimed at increasing antibiotic administration at the time of OASIS repair, antibiotic use increased 13-fold. Although underpowered to detect a significant difference in wound complications, our study showed a clinically meaningful decrease in wound infection/breakdown with antibiotic administration.
