Study Summary

The investigators previously successfully implemented a central venous catheter (CVC) simulation-based mastery learning (SBML) curriculum at Northwestern University. As a result, trainee skill improved, complications, including central line associated bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) decreased and the curriculum was proven cost-effective. Therefore the Veterans Administration Medical Centers (VAMC) decided to implement this training at some of their sites as a quality improvement project. The investigators will train faculty at these locations to implement the same curriculum at their individual sites. Outcome data will be collected to evaluate the outcomes of the quality improvement (QI) project (complications, infections, skills).

Primary Outcome

Data from infection control on central line associated bloodstream infections will be reported for all sites each month. The investigators plan to compare the trained ICU's infection rates with other ICUs at other sites in addition to comparing the trained period versus the untrained period while trainees were rotating through the MICU.
