At our institu tion we recently completed a survey of nursing homes and hospitals in Florida to evaluate the available infection control resources and the infection control practices. We saw a definite difference in the level of practice between hospitals and extended care facilities. The hospitals had more available resources as indicated by the number of epidemiologists, computer access, infection control meet ings per month, and practitioners. We also found in our survey that the responding extended care facilities were more likely to have practices that increase cost without increasing the infection control within the institution. They were more likely to change IV tubings every 24 hours instead of every 48 hours, to perform routine blad der catheter care, to use disposable dishes, to do environ mental culturing, and to do employee physicals. The nursing homes also responded that they were more inter ested in obtaining help, education, and basic infection control information than hospitals. Florida develop guidelines for review of infection control prac tices states and the methodologies discussed today could certainly be used to assess the occurrence of infection and control methods infor Control","PeriodicalId":77726,"journal":{"name":"Infection control : IC","volume":"8 1","pages":"480 - 483"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1017/S0195941700069812","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"57196954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Any comparison between hospital populations will usually contain additional, unintended contrasts among patients with varying degrees of health. Adult patients, for example, may have vastly different underlying diseases, and infants may be of substantially different birth weights. We used both underlying disease and birth weight as indices of the basic severity of illness in order to adjust for confounding by differences in underlying disease in reanalyses of several published studies. We give an example in which differing birth weights among groups of infants compared artifactually double the apparent effect of nosocomial infections as a cause of mortality, and another example in which differing degrees of severity of underlying illness artifactually halve the apparent effect of appropriate antibiotics in preventing death from bacteremia with gram-negative bacilli. We describe simple intuitive methods based on stratification, adapted from chronic disease epidemiology, to remove confounding effects during analyses.","PeriodicalId":77726,"journal":{"name":"Infection control : IC","volume":"8 11","pages":"465-73"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1017/s0195941700069794","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"14554673","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Infection control programs have been established in hospitals throughout the country. Techniques for surveillance of nosocomial infections have been developed and utilized extensively. Results of the Study on the Efficacy of Nosocomial Infection Control (SENIC Project) and the experience with surveillance of surgical wound infections have documented the fact that surveillance is an integral component of an effective nosocomial infection control program. In recent years, a number of approaches to nosocomial infection surveillance have been proposed as alternatives to comprehensive or hospital-wide surveillance. In 1986, four surveillance components were introduced in the National Nosocomial Infections Surveillance (NNIS) system to provide participating institutions the option to tailor their surveillance program to their local needs and priorities while continuing to provide information to the national database on nosocomial infections. Infection control practitioners currently face a challenge to develop more meaningful nosocomial infection rates to permit identification of new infection control priorities for their institution and to assess progress toward specific prevention objectives.","PeriodicalId":77726,"journal":{"name":"Infection control : IC","volume":"8 11","pages":"450-3"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1987-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1017/s0195941700069769","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"13966055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
