需要及时识别医院相关感染的爆发，以实施控制措施并尽量减少影响。来自33家医院的调查结果表明，大多数医院缺乏正式的聚类定义，所有医院都针对非常有限的一组预先指定的病原体。标准化的、基于统计的爆发检测可以极大地改进目前的做法。
Timely identification of outbreaks of hospital-associated infections is needed to implement control measures and minimize impact. Survey results from 33 hospitals indicated that most hospitals lacked a formal cluster definition and all targeted a very limited group of prespecified pathogens. Standardized, statistically based outbreak detection could greatly improve current practice.
