Objectives: To address the importation of multi-drug-resistant organisms (MDROs) when a colonized or infected patient is transferred from another VA facility, the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) launched the Inpatient Pathogen Tracker (IPT) in 2020. IPT tracks MDRO-infected/colonized patients and alerts MDRO Program Coordinators (MPCs) and Infection Preventionists (IPs) when such patients are admitted to their facility to facilitate rapid identification and isolation of infected/colonized patients. IPT usage has been low during initial rollout (32.5%). The VHA and the CARRIAGE QUERI Program developed targeted implementation strategies to increase utilization of IPT’s second iteration, VA Bug Alert (VABA). Methods: Familiarity with IPT was assessed via pre-education survey (3/2022). All sites received standard VABA implementation including: 1) adaptation of VABA features based on end-user feedback (completed 4/2022), 2) development and delivery of an educational module regarding the revised tool (completed 4/2022), and 3) internal facilitation from the VHA MDRO Program Office (ongoing) (see Figure for all key timepoints). Intent to register for VABA was assessed via post-education survey (4-5/2022). Sites (125 eligible) not registered for VABA by 6/1/2022 were randomly assigned to receive one of two conditions from 6/2022–8/2022: continued standard implementation alone or enhanced implementation. Enhanced implementation added the following to standard implementation: 1) audit and feedback reports and 2) external facilitation, including interviews and education about VABA. We compared the number of sites with ≥1 MPC/IP registered for VABA to-date between implementation conditions. Results: Pre-education survey. 168 MPC/IPs across 117 sites responded (94% of eligible sites). Among respondents, 25% had used IPT, 35.1% were familiar with but had not used IPT, and 39.9% were unfamiliar with IPT. Post-education survey. 93 MPC/IPs across 80 sites responded (59% of eligible sites). Of these, 81.7% said they planned to register for VABA, 4.3% said they would not register, and 14.0% said they were unsure. Post-6/1/2022 Registrations. By 6/1/2022, 71% of sites had ≥1 registered VABA user. Of the 28 unregistered sites eligible for enhanced implementation, thirteen were assigned to receive enhanced implementation, and fifteen were assigned to receive continued standard implementation. Eight sites in the enhanced implementation condition (61.5%) registered for VABA. Seven standard-implementation-only sites (46.7%) registered. The number of registered sites did not significantly differ by implementation condition (Fisher’s exact p=0.476). Conclusions: Standard and enhanced implementation were equally effective at encouraging VABA registration, suggesting that allocating resources to enhanced implementation may not be necessary.

Introduction:
Traumatic injury from road traffic accidents is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Rwanda. Basic first aid training can help bystanders to provide prehospital care. The objective of this study was to determine the impact of Stop the Bleed (STB) hemorrhage control training on participant knowledge, attitudes, and practices regarding bleeding control.
Method:A total of 64 participants from two community organizations (Healthy People Rwanda and the Rwandan Emergency Care Association) were provided with training in STB. The course included a didactic presentation and skills session where participants could practice skills. A KAP (Knowledge, Attitudes, Practices) survey was provided to participants before training, immediately after training, three months, and six months post-training.
Results:Immediately after training, participant knowledge of bleeding control techniques improved across 5 of 7 questions, including correct tourniquet placement (98% vs 85%) and the correct order of steps to take when treating bleeding (63% vs 9%). There was also a significant increase in confidence across six measures: identifying life-threatening bleeding, applying a tourniquet, applying direct pressure, wound packing, treating severe active bleeding, and teaching bleeding control techniques to others (p<0.001). After three months, 100% (n = 21) of participants reported using at least one skill from the course, and 95.24% (n = 20) reported using at least one piece of equipment provided during the course. After six months, 93.33% (28 of 30) of participants reported using at least one skill from the course, and 86.67% (26 of 30) reported using at least one piece of equipment provided during the course. Notably, 17 participants reported using the tourniquet they had received by six months post-training.
Conclusion:This study found that STB training increased participant knowledge of bleeding control techniques and confidence in performing techniques for bleeding control. All participants reported using skills learned from the course.

Introduction:
Reusing PPE is not recommended but was common during COVID-19 pandemic. Limited guidance on proper PPE use and its reuse heightened the hazards to health care worker (HCW) safety. Emerging data on PPE use suggests that most HCWs were contaminated by donning and doffing of PPE while adhering to standards of care.
Method:A prospective observational study was conducted to understand HCW behaviors in donning, doffing, and reusing PPE. Emergency Department physicians and nurses were video-recorded donning, doffing, and reusing PPE within a simulated acute care environment. Participants performed five donning and doffing PPE procedures. PPE kit included gown, face shields, and N95 respirator masks. Participants had access to disposable gloves and hand sanitizer. Recordings were reviewed and coded independently by two trained coders based on checklist of key behaviors. Agreement between coders was high (81.9%). All participants reported completing PPE training.
Results:28 videos of participants capturing 278 procedures were reviewed. None of the participants followed the CDC’s order for donning across five scenarios. Majority of participants failed to perform hand hygiene before donning or re-donning PPE or when doffing PPE. For contaminant spread risk, 92.85% (n=26) touched patient-facing side of PPE during re-donning and/or doffing PPE (M= 3.75, SD= 2.37, Median = 4; 0-9 times). The most common area of self-contamination was hands (n= 111 across all participants in 5 donning/doffing sequences). Touching patient-facing side of PPE was more likely to occur during donning than doffing (70.5% vs. 20.1% of sequences).
Conclusion:The study found wide variation in PPE donning/doffing practices among HCW in violation of CDC guidance. This first study to review PPE reuse through a human factors lens, identifyied deviant behaviors that contribute to HCW self-contamination. Efforts are needed to redesign PPE and develop effective ways to train staff using PPE equipment safely.

Objective:
The main objective of this study was to examine the association between COVID-19 information search activities and vaccination intention.
Methods:Cross-sectional data were collected using online surveys. Independent variables included COVID-19 information search on the (1) science of viral effects of COVID-19 on the body, (2) origin of COVID-19, (3) symptoms and outcomes, (4) transmission and prevention, (5) future outbreak, and (6) policies/procedures to follow. The outcome variable was vaccination intention. A multivariable regression analysis was conducted.
Results:Participants (N = 501) had a mean age of 32.44 ± 11.94 years, were 55.3% female, and 67.9% were white. Most COVID-19 information searches were on symptoms and outcomes (77.7%) and policies/procedures to follow (69.9%). Intention to vaccinate against COVID-19 was higher among participants who searched for information on the science of viral effects of COVID-19 on the body (β = 0.23, 95% CI: 0.03-0.43; P = 0.03) and policies/procedures to follow (β = 0.24, 95% CI: 0.03-0.41; P = 0.02).
Conclusions:People who searched for information about (1) the science of viral effects of COVID-19 and (2) policies/procedures recommendations also reported higher vaccination intention. Risk communication seeking to increase vaccination should meet the consumers’ information demand by prioritizing the scientific rationale for COVID-19 vaccination and by clarifying what policies/procedures are recommended.

Objective:
The aim of this study was to examine safety-related contamination threats and risks to health-care workers (HCWs) due to the reuse of personal protective equipment (PPE) among emergency department (ED) personnel.
Methods:We used a Participatory Design (PD) approach to conduct task analysis (TA) of PPE use and reuse. TA identified the steps, risks, and protective behaviors involved in PPE reuse. We used the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) guidance for PPE donning and doffing specifying the recommended task order. Then, we convened subject matter experts (SMEs) with relevant backgrounds in Patient Safety, Human Factors and Emergency Medicine to iteratively identify and map the tasks, risks, and protective behaviors involved in the PPE use and reuse.
Results:Two emerging threats were associated with behaviors in donning, doffing, and re-using PPE: (i) direct exposure to contaminant, and (ii) transmission/spread of contaminant. Protective behaviors included: hand hygiene, not touching the patient-facing surface of PPE, and ensuring a proper fit and closure of all PPE ties and materials.
Conclusions:TA was helpful revealed that the procedure for donning and doffing of re-used PPE does not protect ED personnel from contaminant spread and risk of exposure, even with protective behaviors present (e.g., hand hygiene, respirator use, etc.). Future work should make more apparent the underlying risks associated with PPE use and reuse.

Objective:
To understand barriers and facilitators to evidence-based prescribing of antibiotics in the outpatient dental setting.
Design:Semistructured interviews.
Setting:Outpatient dental setting.
Participants:Dentists from 40 Veterans’ Health Administration (VA) facilities across the United States.
Methods:Dentists were identified based on their prescribing patterns and were recruited to participate in a semistructured interview on perceptions toward prescribing. All interviews were recorded, transcribed, and double-coded for analysis, with high reliability between coders. We identified general trends using the theoretical domains framework and mapped overarching themes onto the behavior change wheel to identify prospective interventions that improve evidence-based prescribing.
Results:In total, 90 dentists participated in our study. The following barriers and facilitators to evidence-based prescribing emerged as impacts on a dentist’s decision making on prescribing an antibiotic: access to resources, social influence of peers and other care providers, clinical judgment, beliefs about consequences, local features of the clinic setting, and beliefs about capabilities.
Conclusions:Findings from this work reveal the need to increase awareness of up-to-date antibiotic prescribing behaviors in dentistry and may inform the best antimicrobial stewardship interventions to support dentists’ ongoing professional development and improve evidence-based prescribing.

Objectives:
The goal of this study is to test an implementation and examine users’ perceptions about the usefulness of telemedicine in mass casualty and disaster settings and to provide recommendations for using telemedicine in these settings.
Methods:Ninety-two US Army Forward Surgical Team (FST) members participated in a high-fidelity mass casualty simulation at the Army Trauma Training Center (ATTC). Telemedicine was implemented into this simulation.
Results:Only 10.9% of participants chose to use telemedicine. The most common users were surgeons and nurses. Participants believed it somewhat improved patient care, attainment of expert resources, decision-making, and adaptation, but not the timeliness of patient care. Participants reported several barriers to using telemedicine in the mass casualty setting, including (1) confusion around team roles, (2) time constraints, and (3) difficultly using in the mass casualty setting (eg, due to noise and other conditions).
Conclusions:There appear to be barriers to the use and usefulness of telemedicine in mass casualty and disaster contexts. Recommendations include designating a member to lead the use of telemedicine, providing telemedical resources whose benefits outweigh the perceived cost in lost time, and ensuring telemedicine systems are designed for the conditions inherent to mass casualty and disaster settings.

Objective
The current pilot study aimed to assess whether reporting quality would decline materially in adolescents completing weekly web-based Automated Self-Administered 24-Hour dietary recalls (ASA24-Kids-2014) and interviewer-administered 24 h dietary recalls for six weeks. We also aimed to assess method preference.
DesignWe conducted two studies. Study 1 (n 20) randomized participants to complete either one ASA24-Kids-2014 or one interviewer-administered recall weekly, for six weeks. Energy intake and number of foods reported were described for each method over time. Differences between recall methods for each measure were tested using mixed-effects regression. Study 2 (n 10) employed a randomized crossover design to describe method preference.
SettingDietary intake was collected either by telephone (interviewer-administered dietary recalls) or via the Internet (ASA24-Kids-2014 dietary recalls).
SubjectsAdolescents aged 12–17 years with no prior diet recording experience were enrolled.
ResultsIn Study 1, mean (sd) total energy and number of foods reported decreased by 50 (222) kJ (12 (53) kcal) and 0·05 (0·31) items v. 38 (138) kJ (9 (33) kcal) and 0·17 (0·14) items per recall for participants randomized to the ASA24-Kids-2014 v. interviewer-administered recalls, respectively. There was no difference between groups for either measure (P > 0·57). In Study 2, eight of ten participants preferred the interviewer-administered recall over the ASA24-Kids-2014. Overall, seven of twenty participants experienced technical difficulties with the ASA24-Kids-2014.
ConclusionsNo appreciable decay in reporting quality was seen for either method. However, participants reported a preference for the interviewer-administered recall. Our findings can help inform and support larger studies to further characterize the performance of the ASA24 in adolescents.
