Problem Postoperative/postdischarge nausea & vomiting (PONV/PDNV) impacts 1/3 of surgical patients annually –Approximately 75 million patients Strongest predictor of prolonged hospital stay and unanticipated hospital admission Is the most commonly reported patient fear prior to elective surgery –Viewed as more debilitating than postoperative pain –Feared more than death Patients are willing to pay $80 to $100 out of pocket to prevent Apfel et al (2004, 2012), Crichton & Edmunds (2006), Diez (1998), Gan et al (2001), Macario et al (1999), Odom-Forren & Moser (2005)

Problem Evidence-based clinical practice guidelines (CPG) are recognized by the AHRQ & the IOM as a key component in the provision of safe, quality patient care CPG have been developed to guide the prevention/management of PONV/PDNV –Degree of adoption of these guidelines in not known 4 AHRQ (2005, 2008), ASPAN (2006), Gan et al (2007), IOM (2001)

Purpose The purpose of this secondary data analysis was to determine the degree of self-reported adoption of the PONV/PDNV guidelines by perianesthesia nurses and anesthesia providers Research questions: –What is the overall self-reported awareness of the PONV/PDNV guideline? –What is the self-reported adoption of Phase specific recommendations of the PONV/PDNV guideline? –What demographic factors are most highly correlated to self-reported CPG adoption?

Research Design: Primary Study Cross-sectional, descriptive, exploratory design using a web-based survey –Administered using Dillman (2007) methodology over an 8 week period Sample –Stratified random sample of 3200 members of the American Society of PeriAnesthesia Nurses (ASPAN) (RN sample), American Association of Nurse Anesthetists (AANA) (CRNA sample), and the Society for Ambulatory Anesthesia (SAMBA) (MD sample) 6

Conclusion Overall guideline awareness & self-reported adoption of phase-specific recommendations was higher than expected –No factors significantly correlated to adoption Limitations –Small sample size –Self-report may not be reflective of actual practice Recommendations –Point-of-care studies examining actual adoption in practice and impact on patient outcome
