The 100,000 Lives Campaign* is a nationwide
initiative launched by the Institute
for Healthcare Improvement (IHI)* to significantly reduce
morbidity and mortality in American health
care. Building on
the successful work of health care providers all over the
world, they are introducing proven best practices across the
country to help participating hospitals extend or save as many
as 100,000 lives annually. UPDATE:
The 100k Lives Campaign is now the 5 Million Lives Campaign.
One of the 100k campaign's six steps to
reduce harm and deaths is preventing Central Line Infections by
implementing a series of interdependent, scientifically
grounded steps called the "Central
Line Bundle". Medical Concepts Development, in conjunction with a
100k mentor facility, has produced a new Central Line Sheet designed
specifically to meet maximal barrier criteria of the Central
Line Bundle.
