hospitals to report to the <strong>SC</strong> <strong>DHEC</strong> selected hospital<br />
acquired infections and selected infection prevention<br />

• Since 2007, inpatient rehabilitation and long‐term<br />
acute care (LTAC) facilities have been added.<br />
• Currently, 79 facilities report on central line associated<br />
bloodstream infections (CLABSIs) and certain surgical<br />
site infections (SSIs)

What is a Standardized <strong>Infection</strong><br />
Ratio (SIR)?<br />
• The SIR is a summary measure used to track HAIs at a<br />
national, state, and local level over time.<br />
• Method of calculating is similar to the Standardized<br />
Mortality Ratio<br />
• The SIR compares the actual number of HAIs reported to<br />
the baseline experience<br />
• Adjusted for several risk factors that have been found to be<br />
significantly associated with differences in infection<br />
incidence.<br />
• An SIR greater than 1.0 indicates that more HAIs were<br />
observed than predicted; an SIR less than 1.0 means fewer<br />
HAIs were observed than predicted

<strong>SC</strong> CLABSI DATA<br />
• **Although not from 2010 data, it should be noted<br />
that in March 2011, the CDC released data showing<br />
that, of 17 states with a mandate for reporting<br />
CLABSIs to NHSN, South Carolina was the only<br />
state to demonstrate a significant decrease in<br />
CLABSI SIRs. South Carolina’s CLABSI rate<br />
dropped 30% July to December 2009 when<br />
compared to January to June 2009, in continuously<br />
reporting facilities. (www.cdc.gov/vital signs)

Surgical Site <strong>Infection</strong>s<br />
• In <strong>SC</strong>, we monitor SSIs from:<br />
• Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG)<br />
• Hip Replacements<br />
• Knee Replacements<br />
• Abdominal Hysterectomies<br />
• Colectomies (in facilities with
SIR<br />
• SIR= observed<br />
expected<br />
• For SSIs, calculated using logistical regression<br />
model<br />
• Risk factors vary <strong>by</strong> procedure, but include patient<br />
age, ASA score, surgery duration, medical school<br />
affiliation, gender, type of anesthesia used,<br />
hospital bed size, wound class, trauma and others

Validation<br />
• <strong>SC</strong> is one of few states that validates data entered into<br />
NHSN <strong>by</strong> facilities<br />
• One of only five states that perform actual chart reviews<br />
• Especially important to identify “system” errors<br />
• Also helps <strong>DHEC</strong> to establish and maintain good<br />
relationships with IPs<br />
• In 2009 CDC report on infection rates from 10 states<br />
with “mature” reporting, CDC concluded that the states<br />
doing validation had significantly better reporting<br />
completeness(including <strong>SC</strong> and NY).
• Provides framework to ensure progress towards<br />
five‐year national prevention targets as described<br />
in the HHS Action Plan in the following areas:<br />
• Develop or Enhance Public Health HAI Program<br />
Infrastructure<br />
• Surveillance, Detection, Reporting, and Response<br />
• Prevention<br />
• Evaluation, Oversight, and Communication
