GOLD: BD (Becton Dickinson), NHS Supply Chain & University Hospitals North Midlands Trust: Value Based Procurement Pilot To Improve Clinical Practice And Patient Experience

The aim of this value based procurement pilot was to improve the process delivery for catheterising patients by:

  • Reducing time to undertake the procedure
  • Reducing variations in clinical practice
  • Consistent use of equipment to reduce risk and improve patient experience.

The BARD foley catheterisation tray was used to successfully deliver improved clinical practice and patient experience. Catheter related infection rates fell by 100 per cent and clinical compliance to best practice improved.

Patient experience improvements included a reduction in complaints, reduced length of stay, reduction in catheter-associated urinary tract infections, and a reduced likelihood of patient urethral meatus trauma.
