Publishes HAI rate data Intended for benchmarking and can be used by institutions in performance-improvement activities
The Study on the Efficacy of Nosocomial Infection Control (SENIC)
Project Defined an infection surveillance and control program to contain three elements: Epidemiological surveillance for the occurrence of infections in patients within the hospital Formulation of policies and procedures to control infections based on data generated by surveillance and other sources Personnel specially trained in hospital epidemiology to collect the surveillance data and coordinate intervention activities Discovered that compared with hospitals that had no program activities, hospitals that established infection surveillance and control programs with a full-time equivalent infection prevention professional per 250 occupied beds, an effectual infection prevention physical, and a program for reporting wound infection rates to surgeons reduced their infections rates by 32%.
The Healthcare Infection Control Practices Advisory Committee
(HICPAC) Provides advice and guidance to the CDC and others regarding the practice of healthcare infection prevention and control and strategies for surveillance, prevention, and control of HAIs
