OBJECTIVES: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a major global health problem. Efforts to mitigate AMR prioritise antimicrobial stewardship (AMS) interventions. These interventions typically focus on deficiencies in practice and providing negative or normative feedback. This approach may miss opportunities to learn from success. We aimed to identify factors that enable success in AMS practices in the paediatric intensive care unit (PICU) by analysing the data obtained from interviews with staff members who had achieved success in AMS.
DESIGN: Qualitative study design using thematic analysis of appreciative inquiry interviews with healthcare staff.
SETTING: 31-bedded PICU in the UK between January 2017 and January 2018.
PARTICIPANTS: 71 staff who had achieved success in AMS in the PICU.
RESULTS: Six themes were identified: (1) cultural factors including psychological safety, leadership and positive attitude are important enablers for delivering good clinical care; (2) ergonomic design of the physical environment and ready availability of tools and resources are key elements to support good practice and decision-making; (3) expertise and support from members of the multidisciplinary team contribute to good care delivery; (4) clarity of verbal and written communication is important for sharing mental models and aims of care within the clinical team; (5) a range of intrinsic factors influences the performance of individual HCPs, including organisation skill, fear of failure, response to positive reinforcement and empathetic considerations towards peers; (6) good clinical care is underpinned by a sound domain knowledge, which can be acquired through training, mentorship and experience.
CONCLUSION: The insights gained in this study originate from frontline staff who were interviewed about successful work-as-done. This strengths-based approach is an understudied area of healthcare, and therefore offers authentic intelligence which may be leveraged to effect tangible improvement changes. The methodology is not limited to AMS and could be applied to a wide range of healthcare settings.
