The aim is to ensure access to effective, quality care and improved patient health outcomes. It is not provided as a definitive MCS text or to argue the aetiology of the condition.ACT Health recognises the significant distress and impairment that is caused by MCS and is committed to providing an environment that reduces exposure to incitants (common triggers that produce clinical symptoms) and improving the health outcomes of people who require treatment in a CHHS facility. Meeting the environmental needs of people with MCS who require medical or surgical treatment in hospital is likely to reduce length of hospital stay.ScopeThis document pertains to all patients who require precautions for MCS whilst receiving services delivered by staff at Canberra Hospital and Health Services (CHHS). The document is generally applicable to the care of people in both inpatient and ambulatory areas. This document applies to all CHHS staff and students (medical, nursing and allied-health) under direct supervision.Section 1 – Overview including background, triggers and common symptoms for MCSIn the context of this Procedure, MCS describes a complex condition involving a broad array of symptoms attributed to exposure to extremely low levels of a wide variety of environmental chemicals. The symptoms experienced by individuals are diverse and reported symptoms can, in some cases, be debilitating. The pathogenic mechanisms involved in MCS have not been established and diagnostic methods and treatments have yet to be agreed by the medical profession (NICNAS, OCSEH 2010).Mistrust can be experienced by MCS patients based on prior experience, and frustration for both patients and the staff caring for them, due to the lack of confirmed diagnostic methods and treatments; mutual respect and compassion can enhance the relationship.Background Each person affected by MCS may be sensitive to different substances and hypersensitivity may be brought on by a wide array of incitant chemicals and substances found in the broader environment and hospitals. The types of incitants to which people with MCS are sensitive vary considerably and may be found in for example but not limited to: external air sources such as vehicle exhaust, food and drink often provided to patients, cleaning and disinfectant products, moulds, personal hygiene products, perfumes, aftershaves, and hair care products. Sensitivities are not restricted to perfumed or odorous substances, but sensitivities to these are so widespread and can be potentially severe that wherever possible they should be avoided. MCS affects people in different ways and the symptoms experienced by people vary in severity dependent on the degree of exposure. Patients with MCS may experience a variety of physical symptoms as a result of exposure to incitant chemicals and/or substances. The symptoms experienced by people with MCS to incitants may at times complicate patient treatment whilst in hospital, affecting recovery, health outcomes and wellbeing. In the hospital situation it may not always be possible to remove every substance to which a particular patient is sensitive and the best that may be achieved is to remove/avoid as many of those substances as possible. The hospital stay of patients with MCS is ideally planned with hospital administration prior to admission and managed by health professional staff on an individual, case-by-case basisCommon Triggers (incitants)Some chemical agents that trigger MCS symptoms are known to be irritants or be potentially toxic to the nervous system. The products and other chemicals that cause problems vary among affected individuals and may include but are not limited to:anaesthesiacolours, flavours and preservatives (natural and artificial) in food, drinks, and medicationsperfumes and fragrancesdetergents and other cleanersprescribed medicationssmoke from tobacco productssolvents from felt pens etc.pesticidesvehicle exhaustsnew building and renovation materials including fresh paint and new carpet, andother volatile agent such as chlorine, formaldehyde, adhesives, glues and mon symptoms of exposure to incitantsrespiratory symptomsdizziness and faintnessnausearashesheadachefatigueflu-like symptomsmental confusionshort term memory lossgastro-intestinal tract symptomscardiovascular irregularitiesgenito-urinary symptomsmuscle and joint painirritability and depression, andear, nose and throat complaints.Severity of symptoms may range from mild to severe.Reducing symptom severitygoing into fresh air (if clinically appropriate)washing exposed skin and hair to remove incitants, andremoving identified incitant/s.Back to Table of Contents Section 2 – Preparation for Planned Hospital AdmissionPre-admission considerations The admitting team is responsible for meeting with the MCS patient wherever possible well before the admission date to document all sensitivities and requirements as part of the Request for Admission (RFA). If a meeting is not possible a phone call wherever possible should be made to document their sensitivities and the severity of their symptoms.A care-planning partnership will be created with MCS patients. The admitting team will facilitate this prior by coordinating relevant referrals, and creating a personal care plan. Information should be obtained noting particular incitants that affect the patient, typical symptoms and signs that manifest on exposure to incitants and the methods and remedies the patient uses to minimise the effects of such exposures, including access to ‘specialist’ equipment e.g. portable air filtration machine. If the patient is intending to bring personal electrical equipment in to the hospital it needs to have been tagged and tested in the last 12 months by an electrician.The Nutrition Department, Special Diet Service should be contacted by phone x42567 and appropriate dietary arrangements made if required.Once completed the RFA is sent to the Patient Flow Unit (PFU), this assists staff in planning for the most appropriate physical location and clinical specialty area for care.Consideration should also be given to identifying strategies for patient transport to hospital.All members of the treating team have responsibility for meeting the MCS patient’s needs. Alert for MCS to be added to the patients ACTPAS record. See Attachment 1 for Care Pathway for Elective presentation/admissionNote: Offering the patient/family a copy of the personal care plan as part of the pre-admission planning process is recommended. Back to Table of Contents Section 3 – Emergency PresentationOn presentation to the Emergency Department (ED) staff will identify the patient alerts and/or allergies in accordance with the CHHS Admission/Discharge-Adults, Pregnant Women and Neonates Clinical procedure. A patient with MCS will often carry a medical alert and should be consulted as soon as possible regarding their condition to identify further steps that could be taken for their ongoing care. If the patient is conscious and able to communicate, they are a valuable resource for temporary care instructions. In addition the following should be done:wherever possible, liaise early with the patient’s general practitioner wherever possible upon arrival, the MCS patient should be isolated in a clean room.Subject to the clinical requirements of managing the condition necessitating admission, MCS patients should be treated wherever possible, in an area that is not close to: doorways exposed to vehicle (ambulance) activity and exhaust fumesareas being remodelled or renovatedhigh traffic areas chemical storage and supply areaschemotherapy treatment areas, orcomputers, photocopy, fax machines.All staff and visitors entering patient’s area must:attend to hand hygiene (see section 2.2 in the Healthcare Associated Infections Procedure) with fragrance-free hand wash, anddon gown, surgical cap and latex free gloves.Following the decision to admit, ED staff are to advise the Patient Flow Unit of the patient with MCS requiring admission to hospital, including their specific requirements for their ongoing care.See Attachment 2 for Care Pathway for Emergency Presentations Note: The need for isolation in a positive pressure room will depend on the MCS severity.The Access Unit will facilitate allocation to a single room with ensuite, where possible.Back to Table of ContentsSection 4 – On AdmissionThe Patient Experience In coordinating care, MCS patients often will be able to suggest individual treatments that they have found reduce the severity of their symptoms if they worsen. The care team is to discuss these treatments as suggested by the patient and family and accommodate them as an essential part of the care plan and treatment regime’ if it is not contra-indicated (refer to Section 1 for further information).Medical Officer/s are to ensure all special orders and allergen/incitants including reactions, are clearly documented in the patient’s clinical record for planned and emergency admissions and communicated to all members of the health care team who will be involved with the patient (refer to Section 1 for triggers and symptoms associated with MCS).Risk AssessmentStaff are to confirm with the patient their specific chemical sensitivities and to mark them clearly on the alerts and allergy sheet of the medical chart. Notify the ward clerk to ensure the alertis entered into ACTPAS.When confirming sensitivities staff are to:ask the patient to identify any reactions they have experienced identify exposures that have caused such reactions in the pastask the patient to detail what can be done to reduce the severity and list the information in the patients clinical record and medication chart, andIf the patient has been admitted before, check the patient’s previous clinical record/s for documentation in relation to MCS. Where possible print the Patient care and accountability plan from the most recent admission checking the accuracy of the information with the patient.If the patients reaction is to cleaning products, environmental services are to be contacted to ensure that the room is prepared with neutral (see definition Section) detergent, prior to the patients admission. Back to Table of ContentsSection 5 – Care during AdmissionEquipment that may be required when caring for a patient with MCSWhether all or some of the equipment listed below is required will become apparent after further discussion with the patient around their sensitivities.a red identification band (Refer to Patient Identification and Procedure Matching Procedure on the Policy Register)100% cotton gownscapsclean, sterile or disposable linen fragrance-free hand washbottled drinking waterstop/caution signs fragrance-free cleaning productsfragrance free wipe down clothslatex-free products including clinical consumables such as oxygen tubing and face-masksChlorhexidine free box, available from afterhours Clinical Nurse Consultant/Clinical Midwife consultant (CNC/CMC) or Infection Prevention and Control during working hours. The box contains:Angel alcohol based hand rub, replaces pink Chlorhexidine alcohol based hand rub70% isopropryl alcohol sterile skin swabs, replaces 2% Chlorhexidine skin prep wipes Betadine alcoholic skin preparation, replaces Chlorhexidine skin prep solutionBedbath wipes replaces Chlorhexidine bed bath wipesIf the patient is admitted unexpectedly and their specialised electrical equipment has not been tagged and tested in the previous 12 months contact the maintenance department. In exceptional cases they may be able to tag and test the equipment.Patient AccommodationThe ward/unit /CNC/CMC or Team leader will identify and prepare a room and a bed for the patient consistent with the following principles.The MCS patient should not be accommodated near an area that:is a high traffic areais used for chemical storage or supply, or for chemotherapy treatmentcontains computers, photocopiers or fax machinesis being remodelled, renovated or repaired, orhas had a pesticide application in the previous twelve months. This information will be documented on the ward Data Safety Mangement Sheet (DSMS) kept in the folder on the ward.The MCS patient should not be allocated a room that is:carpeteddoes not have an ensuite or access to a private bathroom, if possiblehas been remodelled, renovated or repaired (i.e. repainting, new floor coverings etc.) in the previous six months.The room/area allocated to the MCS patient should be prepared so that:non-fixed perfumed or fragranced items and/or other items that may emit volatile odours and potentially cause symptoms (i.e. plastic or vinyl furnishings, soft-furnishings, curtains, fluorescent lights etc) that are not essential for the care of the patient are removed, andfixed items containing components which may be possible triggers and not required for care of the patient should be covered with materials that are tolerated as much as possible by the patient with MCS. Wherever possible confirm these details with patient prior to arrival in the room/area.Many MCS sufferers are sensitive to non-perfumed substances making them far more difficult to identify and manage. Sensitivities to perfumed substances (i.e. perfume, scented hygiene products etc.) are well understood because these are the sensitivities that people with MCS can readily identify. On the other hand, some components of laundry detergents are not perfumed and yet have been associated with severe hypersensitivity.”Notification of Support ServicesThe ward/unit CNC/CMC or Team leader will notify:the cleaning supervisor of the patient’s admission to facilitate room cleaning with the relevant cleaning staff to ensure that exposure to incitants is minimised. The care environment is cleaned in accordance with relevant Standards/requirements, andmembers of the health care team, including the Medical Officer, Pharmacist, Dietician, Nurse Manager and food, cleaning and laundry and social services (if supported by the patient) of the patient’s admission and requirements. Provision of EquipmentThe ward/unit Clinical Nurse Consultant (CNC/CMC) or Team leader will ensure all appropriate equipment is sourced and supplied to the patient’s room as equipment list above.Environmental AlertsThe ward/unit CNC/CMC or Team leader will attach an alert sign on the outer door with instructions to contact the nurse prior to entering room. Allocation of StaffThe CNC/CMC or Team leader will, wherever possible, ensure that the MCS patient is cared for by one designated staff member each shift. This does not imply 1:1 ‘specialling’ of the MCS patient, unless specifically required due to issues of acuity, complexity etc.Where possible, prior to the nursing staff member arriving at the hospital for their allocated ‘shift,’ the CNC/CMC or Team Leader will discuss with the attending staff member allocated to care for the MCS patient the need to not wear, have used, or have been exposed to: perfume or scented hygiene products prior to shiftaerosol products such as hairspray laundry soaps, fabric softeners, deodorants, shampoo, hair lotions, make-up, hair mousse, gels and bath soaps (which can all contain perfume or masking fragrances and deodorisers, and should be avoided by staff whilst caring for a patient with MCS)new clothing which has not been laundered to remove chemical residueclothing which has been freshly dry-cleaned, orcigarette smoke.It may be easier for the staff member to wear theatre scrubs. Out of hours these are available from the Operating Theatres, however for ongoing use the ward manager will need to arrange for them to be delivered to the ward. Showering facilities are available for staff if required.General Care ConsiderationsStaff member/s caring for the patient with MCS will: be familiar with the patient’s condition and what incitants or allergens the patient is affected by. Different patients may react to different ranges of incitantswhen the MCS patient is allocated a single room ensure that the door of the room is kept closed at all timesnot permit any flowers, plants, newspapers, or chemically treated or perfumed paper in the patient’s room unless the patient advises that this is acceptableensure room cleaning requirements are adhered to ensure bed linen requirements are adhered to remove all wet laundry and towels immediately after the patient has finished personal hygiene whenever possible remove patient’s meal tray/s from the room immediately after meals consider any possible environmental triggers for the patient with MCS and eliminate or manage the risk of exposure.The patient’s medical and nursing team will: consider scheduling procedures to minimise chemical exposures (usually first in the day)consider the patient’s sensitivities when choosing anaesthetics and medicationsensure only essential staff enter the patient’s room/areaensure all hospital staff perform hand hygiene using fragrance-free hand wash, and don gown, cap and latex-free gloves prior to entering the room. Staff should confirm whether hand-wash chemicals are an incitant for the patient and if so, avoid using hand-wash products within the room, andcoordinate the plan of care with all other hospital departments the patient may be transferred to for treatment and, whenever possible, arrange to have the patient to be treated in his/her roomwhere transport is required outside of the patient’s room, ensure that all efforts are made to shield the MCS patient from identified incitants.Ongoing Care Requirements CleaningThe CNC/CMC or Team leader will contact the cleaning supervisor to inform them of the MCS patient’s admission to initiate the appropriate cleaning processes. Initial Cleaningcontact cleaning of the patient’s environment is to be conducted prior to admissionit is essential that all cleaning products are to be fragrance free consideration needs to be given to patient-specific requests around matters of cleaning and the need to create and maintain an incitant-free environmentafter cleaning, the room should be wiped down with plain water and clean clothaerosol cleaners, disinfectants, insecticides and/or room deodorisers, wherever possible, should not be used, andthe room is to be free of dampness and mould.Daily Cleaning of an MCS patients’ room should be minimal but include:dust with a clean cloth moistened neutral detergentremove rubbish at least twice dailywet laundry should be removed from the room immediately after useavoid use of toxic chemicals and highly fragrant cleaning products in the general area during the MCS patients stay, andLinen/Laundry Services It cannot be guaranteed that linen provided to CHHS will be free of chemical residue and subsequently may be an incitant for some MCS patients. Discuss this matter with the patient.Use of sterile or disposable linen may be required in cases where laundry chemicals are reported to be incitant agents. This needs to be ordered through stores by the CNC/Manager of the ward. The patient may request to use their own linen (sheets and pillow cases). If this is requested ensure the linen is clear of dirt and foreign bodies before using on bed.All bed linen is to be changed as per standard protocols, patient/family request and/or as required.Dietary Requirements Patients with MCS may have different food sensitivities and allergies. If the patient is aware of specific food sensitivities and/or allergies and requires a special diet in hospital, the Nutrition Department, Special Diet Service should be contacted x42567 and appropriate dietary arrangements made. This should occur as soon as admission occurs and may require the provision of: Suitable food and beveragesBottled waterThe Special Diet service will input diet codes into the meal order system (MyMeal) and nursing staff are then able to view these via the diet order system (DIETpas). As is ususal practice all food items delivered to patients will be accompanied by documentation identifying the patient, food/beverages provided and food allergens/intolerances as per diet order communications with the Special Diet Service phone-x42567. Where food preparation practices need to be adapted beyond usual cross contamination practices and food hygiene practices, the nutrition department will liase with the food service department to implement appropriate strategies.Where ever possible meal trays should be removed from the room immediately on completion of the meal.Note: Patients should be allowed to bring in their own food if necessary or preferred and if consistent with clinical management (Refer to the Bringing Food into Canberra Hospital and Health Service Procedure (Adults and Children). If required, discuss food storage arrangements with patient.MedicationsPatients with MCS may have significant reactions to medications. Referral should be made to the pharmacist as soon as admission is arranged ensuring that pre-admission care arrangements are implemented. Standard ingredients of medications should be known as MCS patients may react to both naturally occurring and artificial substances including but not limited to: colouring agents, preservatives, sweeteners, flavourings etc.Note: Drug reactions should be reported to the medical officer immediately and recorded via the Adverse Drug Reaction Reporting Form accessed via the HealthHUB at should observe patients for symptoms including (but not limited to):muscle spasmlocal swelling, hivessyncopehyperventilationseizuresasthma, andsevere anaphylaxis.Where possible avoid use of medication vials that have a rubberised seal as some vials may contain latex. Check with the patient and Pharmacy Department before the administration of medications that are dispensed from vials with these seals.VisitorsAll visitors should check-in at the nurses’ station for instructions prior to entering the patient’s room. All visitors should be as free as possible of: perfume or scented hygiene products aerosol products such as hairspray laundry soaps, fabric softeners, deodorants, shampoo, hair lotions, make-up, hair mousse, gels and bath soaps (which can all contain perfume or masking fragrances and deodorisers, and should be avoided by visitors to patients with MCS)new clothing which has not been laundered to remove chemical residueclothing which has been freshly dry-cleanedhaving smoked cigarettes prior to visiting or wear clothing impregnated with smoke.Visitors should also be advised to:not bring flowers or other items emitting volatile substances into the patient’s room.wash their hands with the non fragrance soap provided prior to entering roomkeep the door of the room closed at all times, if the patient is located in a single room.See Attachment 3 - Care Pathway for Care of the MCS Patient on the Ward.Back to Table of ContentsSection 6 –Community Health and Outpatient ClinicsStaff working in Community Health Centres and outpatients at Canberra Hospital should check the ACTPAS Alerts on all patients who are attending for outpatient appointments. If a multiple chemical sensitivity is identified appropriate action as mentioned in previous Sections should be taken to reduce the chance of exposure to commen triggers.Patients with known sensitivities should be encouraged to notify Health Centres and Clinics prior to their visit where possible so appropriate measures can be taken in anticipation of the patients appointment.Back to Table of ContentsSection 7 – Discharge Evaluation of careFor each episode of care an evaluation of the care and outcomes should be reviewed by the treating team in consultation with the patient (and/or their family/carers). For example, for inpatient admissions the review may be appropriate as part of discharge planning (if required, notify a social worker to participate, if requested by the patient), and for outpatients receiving ongoing care, review is to be undertaken at each visit.Discharge PlanningDischarge planning is an essential component in the overall care planning for people with MCS, as early discharge as soon as clinically appropriate and practical, reduces incitants exposure during the recovery and rehabilitation period post hospital treatment.Back to Table of Contents Implementation To be included in the Deputy Director General Alert notifying staff of the policy, highlighting the main practice rmation will be tabled at relevant Executive meetings, with information to be tabled at respective Divisional staff meetings to discuss the day to day impact of the procedure.Email sent to all CNCs notifying them of all new or reviewed Policy documents that have been uploaded to the Policy register in the previous month.Back to Table of ContentsRelated Policies, Procedures, Guidelines and LegislationProceduresCHHS Bringing Food into CHHS (Adults and Children) Clinical Procedure CHHS Healthcare Associated Infections Clinical Procedure CHHS Patient Identification and Procedure Matching Procedure CHHS Admission/Discharge-Adults, Pregnant Women and Neonates Clinical Procedure LegislationHuman Rights Act 2004Back to Table of ContentsReferencesAllergy and Environmental Sensitivity Support and Research Association Inc.
