RECRUITING

CIED Infection Quality Initiative Demonstration Project

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The aim of this Quality Initiative (QI) demonstration project is to develop a model to increase guideline-driven care for patients with cardiovascular implantable electronic devices (CIED) infection. Multidisciplinary teams will be established to carry out the multifaceted intervention. This program seeks to improve early identification and diagnosis, appropriate treatment, and faster time to treatment of CIED infection.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:ALL
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT, OLDER_ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Age ≥18 years
  2. * Cardiovascular Implantable Electronic Device (CIED) in place
  3. * Presumed CIED infection, as defined by:
  4. 1. Positive blood culture (two or more positive blood cultures for typical skin organisms (coagulase-negative staphylococci, Corynebacterium species, Propionobacterium species), or one positive blood culture for all other microorganisms), with no other source identified to explain the bacteremia
  5. 2. Cases with definite evidence of pocket infection (defined as localized erythema, swelling, pain, tenderness, warmth, erosion, or drainage), if treated with antibiotics before culture, even with negative culture, will be considered device infection
  1. * Patients who are inappropriate for device extraction, for example those who are DNAR and not using therapy to prolong survival because any procedure is considered inappropriate and/or it is unlikely that extraction would change overall prognosis
  2. * Death within one week of definitive CIED systemic infection diagnosis or positive blood culture. Cases of bacteremia originating from a source other than the CIED that resolve without any evidence of CIED involvement should not be considered as CIED infection
  3. * Patients with left ventricular assist devices (LVADs)
