我们描述了疾病控制和预防中心的国家医院感染监测系统。该系统对于成功降低医院感染率至关重要的要素包括自愿参与和保密；标准定义和协议；识别高危人群；各机构之间特定地点、经过风险调整的感染率具有可比性；足够数量的训练有素的感染控制专业人员；向卫生保健提供者传播数据；以及监测率和预防工作之间的联系。
We describe the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance system. Elements of the system critical for successful reduction of nosocomial infection rates include voluntary participation and confidentiality; standard definitions and protocols; identification of populations at high risk; site-specific, risk-adjusted infection rates comparable across institutions; adequate numbers of trained infection control professionals; dissemination of data to health-care providers; and a link between monitored rates and prevention efforts.
