    Abstract Background and purpose: Tonsillectomy procedures are commonly performed worldwide. At our academic tertiary care facility, we perform approximately 1000 tonsillectomy procedures annually. We have found inconsistent pain management strategies in pediatric tonsillectomy patients have contributed to variability in postoperative complications and the number and types of postoperative pain medications required in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU). This project aimed to assess the impact of implementing a standardized perioperative pain management protocol on reducing postoperative complications in pediatric patients who underwent a tonsillectomy procedure.
    Methods: A pre-post-intervention design was utilized, comparing characteristics and outcomes of pediatric patients for whom a standardized perioperative pain management protocol was implemented over a 12-week period compared to those who did not. The standardized perioperative pain management protocol was utilized intraoperatively by the anesthesiologists, nurse anesthetists, and residents. A Qualtrics survey was used by the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) nurses to gather data as they cared for patients who underwent tonsillectomy. Four outcomes were measured: (1) postoperative pain medication administration, (2) rate of postoperative respiratory complications, (3) rate of adherence, and (4) usability of a standardized pain management protocol. Data were compared between pre and post-implementation groups.
    Results: During the quality improvement project, 180 children underwent tonsillectomy, with 81 in the control group and 99 in the intervention group. The median age did not differ between groups. The control group had higher postoperative opioid medication usage (93.8% vs. 54.5%) and a higher number of opioids administered in the recovery room. Postoperative IV fentanyl was reduced in the intervention group (49.4% vs. 28.3% in the intervention, p = .004). Respiratory interventions were more frequent in the control group (24.7% vs. 7.1%), with increased respiratory team activation. Respiratory team activation in the Post Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) includes a 511 page for anesthesia provider assistance. Respiratory interventions included bag-mask ventilation, lidocaine, propofol or succinylcholine administration, and reintubation. The intervention group had 100% adherence to the pain management protocol, and providers found it easy to use.
    Conclusion: The quality improvement project highlighted notable improvements in the intervention group for whom a standardized perioperative pain management protocol was used, including reduced opioid medication administration, lower incidence of respiratory interventions, and high adherence to the pain management protocol. These findings underscore the effectiveness and feasibility of standardized protocols in enhancing patient outcomes.

    Abstract Background: Early detection of sepsis decreases mortality in hospitals, but recognition of sepsis is often delayed in skilled nursing facilities (SNFs).
    Local problem: A local SNF in the northeastern United States sought to use a standardized sepsis pathway to prevent hospital readmissions due to sepsis.
    Methods: A pre-/postimplementation design was used for this project. Outcome measures included sepsis detection and treatment, length of stay in the SNF, sepsis-related hospital transfer rate, mortality rate, and predictors of clinical outcomes.
    Interventions: A SNF sepsis pathway was developed based on current sepsis detection tools. The pathway incorporated a sepsis screening tool and a sepsis bundle. Implementation of the pathway involved education of nurses and certified nursing assistants on the pathway.
    Results: A total of 178 patients were included in data analysis (81 preimplementation and 97 implementation). Sepsis recognition increased from 56% to 86% ( P < .001), and sepsis-related hospital transfers decreased from 68% to 44% ( P = .07). Laboratory testing for lactate, white blood cell count, and blood cultures increased, and sepsis intervention rates significantly improved ( P < .001).
    Conclusions: Implementing a modified SNF sepsis pathway accelerated identification of sepsis and improved clinical outcomes.
