The wound bed is viable, pink or red, moist, and may also present as an intact or ruptured serum-filled blister. Adipose (fat) is not visible and deeper tissues are not visible. - Stage 3: full-thickness loss of skin, in which adipose is visible in the ulcer and granulation tissue and epibole (rolled wound edges) are often present. Slough and/or eschar (dead tissue) may be visible. - Deep Tissue Injury (DTI): intact or non-intact skin with localized area of persistent nonblanchable deep red, maroon, purple discoloration or epidermal separation revealing a dark wound bed or blood filled blister. This injury results from intense and/or prolonged pressure and shear forces at the bone-muscle interface. 1. Medical record review for Resident 21 was initiated on 9/3/19. Resident 21 was admitted to the facility on 3/19/13, and readmitted on 8/10/19, without a pressure ulcer.

The DCS stated there were three residents (Residents 9, 16, and 281) who currently had PICC lines. Review of the facility's P&P titled Measuring External Catheter Length with Central Vascular Access Devices dated 11/2018 showed when measuring external catheter length, measure from the hub (point where the catheter width increases) of the catheter to the insertion site of the catheter. Measuring the external catheter length and comparing to the external catheter length at insertion will confirm the catheter's tip has remained in the SVC (superior vena cava, large vein that carries blood into the heart). If the baseline was documented at 1 cm upon insertion, and the measurement just taken was 4 cm, do not use the catheter until an x-ray confirms the tip placement is located in the SVC. According to Taylor's Clinical Nursing Skills, third edition, if a patient has a PICC in place, measure the length of the catheter that extends from the insertion site. Measurement of the extending catheter can be compared with the documented length at the time of insertion to assess if the catheter has migrated inward or moved outward. On 9/9/19 at 0704 hours, the DCS provided copies of her assessments of the PICC line access sites for Residents 9, 16, 281, and 332). The DCS stated Resident 332 also had a PICC line.

This expectation included the use of a sterile drape to set up the sterile field, two masks, (one for the nurse and the other for the resident) a sterile, transparent dressing, a sterile measuring tape and sterile gloves. On 9/9/19 at 0811 hours, an observation of Resident 281's external catheter PICC line measurement was conducted with the DCS. The DCS was observed with a measuring tape and donning sterile gloves. The DCS was observed measuring the external catheter length of Resident 281's PICC line without removing the dressing. The puncture site was not visible to the eyes. The DCS was asked how to visualize and measure the correct length for the external catheter when the clean bandage obscured the puncture site and part of the PICC line. The DCS was observed changing her gloves and donning clean, nonsterile gloves. The DCS was observed opening the PICC line dressing. No sterile field was established. No drape was applied to Resident 281. The DSC did not don a mask or ask the resident to turn their head away from the dressing.

This had the potential for the spread of infections in the facility. Findings: According to the CDC, repeated and/or improper use of antibiotics was the primary cause of the proliferation of drug-resistant bacteria. Each time a person uses antibiotics, the sensitive bacteria are killed; however, resistant bacteria may result. These resistant bacteria may then grow and multiply. When the antibiotics fail to work, the consequences include longer lasting illnesses, extended hospital stays, and the need for more expensive and toxic medications. Some resistant infections can even cause death. On 9/10/19 at 0744 hours, an interview and concurrent review of the facility's antibiotic stewardship program was conducted with the ADCS who was also the facility's designated Infection Control Nurse. The ADCS stated she was responsible for the facility's infection control and antibiotic stewardship program. The ADCS stated the facility utilized the McGeer's Criteria to define infection surveillance activities. 1. Review of the facility's infection surveillance and logs from March to June 2019 showed there were no incidence of antibiotic use not meeting the McGeer's criteria in the facility. The ADCS stated if the onset of symptoms of infection occurred 48 hours after admission, the infection was considered as HAI. The ADCS stated these included antibiotics prescribed for prophylaxis use.
