abstract: 'Background: Hospital acquired infections occur at higher rates in
low-and middle-income countries, like India, than in high-income
countries. Effective implementation of infection control practices is
crucial to reducing the transmission of hospital acquired infections at
hospitals worldwide. Yet, no comprehensive assessments of the barriers
to sustained, successful implementation of hospital interventions have
been performed in Indian healthcare settings to date. The Systems
Engineering Initiative for Patient Safety (SEIPS) model examines
problems through the lens of interactions between people and systems. It
is a natural fit for investigating the behavioral and systematic
components of infection control practices.
Methods: We conducted a qualitative study to assess the facilitators and
barriers to infection control practices at a 1250 bed tertiary care
hospital in Haryana, northern India. Twenty semi-structured interviews
of nurses and physicians, selected by convenience sampling, were
conducted in English using an interview guide based on the SEIPS model.
All interview data was subsequently transcribed and coded for themes.
Results: Person, task, and organizational level factors were the primary
barriers and facilitators to infection control at this hospital. Major
barriers included a high rate of nursing staff turnover, time spent
training new staff, limitations in language competency, and heavy
clinical workloads. A well developed infection control team and an
institutional climate that prioritizes infection control were major
facilitators.
Conclusions: Institutional support is critical to the effective
implementation of infection control practices. Prioritizing resources to
recruit and retain trained, experienced nursing staff is also essential.'
