Population of interest
- Identify patients with IFI
- Patients with 3 or more risk factors for invasive fungal infection (dismounted blast, above knee amputation, perineal genitourinary or rectal injury, MT> 20 units RBC + WB within 24h of injury.)
Intent (Expected Outcomes)
- Patients with ≥3 IFI risk factors undergo surgical debridement undergo surgical debridement in the OR within 6-12 hours of arrival at Role 3 or 4 MTFs.
- Patients with ≥3 IFI risk factors and wounds concerning for IFI are:
taken to the OR at least every 24 hours
are started on IV or PO antifungals.
- An operative note for wound debridement includes the extent of necrosis quantified as a percentage of each wound.
Performance/Adherence Metrics
- Number and percentage of patients in the population of interest who undergo surgical debridement in the OR within 6-12 hours of arrival at Role 3 or 4 MTFs.
- Number and percentage of patients in the population of interest who have an operative note that quantifies the extent of wound necrosis as a percentage of each wound.
Data Sources
- Patient Record
- Department of Defense Trauma Registry (DoDTR)
