This dramatically improved patient concordance and engagement in care. Despite incomplete healing at 36 weeks, the wound-healing journey over the 36 weeks indicated wound closure was close.

Non-clinically indicated ABGs increased costs of care, lengths of stay, ventilator days, and line days, increasing the risk of adverse outcomes in already vulnerable critically ill patients. A cardiac surgery intensive care unit (CSICU) within a large urban mid-Atlantic academic medical center accounted for 31% of the entire institution's ABG analyses between 2018-2019, was identified as a top utilizer due to inappropriate ordering practices compared to current guidelines.</p></div><div><h3>Purpose</h3><p>The purpose of this quality improvement project was to implement an algorithm using evidence-based guidelines that identified appropriate standardized clinical indications for ABGs, with the intention of reducing non-clinically indicated blood gas analyses orders within the CSICU.
