F 0758 Level of Harm - Minimal harm or potential for actual harm Residents Affected - Few Implement gradual dose reductions(GDR) and non-pharmacological interventions, unless contraindicated, prior to initiating or instead of continuing psychotropic medication; and PRN orders for psychotropic medications are only used when the medication is necessary and PRN use is limited. **NOTE- TERMS IN BRACKETS HAVE BEEN EDITED TO PROTECT CONFIDENTIALITY** Based on interview and medical record review the facility failed to ensure one of 14 final sampled residents (Resident 12) was free from the unnecessary medications (Resident 12). * The facility failed to monitor orthostatic hypotension for Resident 12 who was on quetiapine, an antipsychotic (reduce or relieve symptoms such as delusions (false beliefs) and hallucinations (seeing or hearing something that is not there) medication. This posed the risk of not identifying the potential harmful side effects associated with the medication and a delay in necessary medical interventions for this resident. Findings: According to Lexicomp, quetiapine may cause orthostatic hypotension and accompanying tachycardia and syncope in adults, particularly with rapid titration. Orthostatic hypotension may result in subsequent falling and fracture. Mechanism: Orthostatic hypotension is attributed to alpha-1 adrenergic receptor antagonism. Risk factors: Known cardiovascular disease (history of myocardial infarction or ischemic heart disease, heart failure, or conduction abnormalities) or cerebrovascular disease, known predisposing conditions (such as, hypovolemia or dehydration) and use of other medications that also cause or exacerbate orthostatic hypotension (such as tricyclic antidepressants and antihypertensive medications). Review of Resident 12's medical record was initiated on 10/27/23. Resident 12 was admitted to the facility on [DATE]. Review of Resident 12's previous acute care hospitalization progress note dated 9/16/22, showed a diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder (a mental health condition that causes extreme mood swings that include emotional highs [mania or hypomania] and lows [depression]). Review of Resident 12's current medications dated 10/26/23, showed quetiapine (antipsychotic) 25 mg via GT twice a day. Review of Resident 12's routine psychotropic medication for October 2023, showed to monitor adverse reaction every shift; however, the document failed to show the monitoring of Resident 12's blood pressure while lying, sitting, and standing. On 10/27/23 at 0843 hours, an interview with LVN 1 was conducted. LVN 1 stated Resident 12 used quetiapine for the behavior of pulling out the GT tubing. The LVN was asked how Resident 12 was being monitored for orthostatic hypotension, LVN 1 stated Resident12's BP was monitored everyday but not for orthostatic hypotension.

Residents Affected - Few * The facility failed to ensure Resident 2 was assessed for entrapment on admission and failed to ensure Resident 2's (low air loss) LAL mattress and bed were assessed to be safe and compatible together. * The facility failed to ensure Resident 30's LAL mattress and bed were assessed to be safe and compatible together. * The facility failed to document Resident 23's annual Bed Entrapment Check List completed on 12/5/22, identified the resident and specific bed assessed. * The facility failed to ensure bed inspection gap measurement for bed entrapment assessment were completed and documented for Resident 32. These failures had the potential to negatively impact the residents resulting in possible entrapment, serious injury, and death. Findings: According to the Hospital Bed System Dimensional and Assessment Guidance to Reduce Entrapment, the term entrapment describes an event in which a patient/resident is caught, trapped, or entangled in the space in or about the bed rail, mattress, or hospital bed frame. Patient entrapments may result in deaths and serious injuries. These entrapment events have occurred in openings within the bed rails, between the bed rails and mattresses, under bed rails, between split rails, and between the bed rails and head or foot boards. The population most vulnerable to entrapment are elderly patients and residents, especially those who are frail, confused, restless, or who have uncontrolled body movement. The seven areas in the bed system where there is a potential for entrapment are: - Zone 1: within the rail; - Zone 2: under the rail, between the rail supports or next to a single rail support; - Zone 3: between the rail and the mattress; - Zone 4: under the rail, at the ends of the rail; - Zone 5: between split bed rails; - Zone 6: between the end of the rail and the side edge of the head or foot board; and - Zone 7: between the head or foot board and the mattress end.
