2010 National Healthcare Safety Network Standardized Infection Ratios for Cauti–Michigan Vs. Non-MichiganA
Number of Infections | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Location | Number of Facilities | Observed | Expected* | SIR | 95% CI |
National | 1062 | 9,845 | 10,456 | 0.94 | 0.92 – 0.96 |
Michigan | 24 | 150 | 201 | 0.75 | 0.63 – 0.87 |
Data obtained through cooperation with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) and the Michigan Department of Community Health. Data presented are derived from facilities reporting to NHSN during 2010 and include data from all ICUs and wards; excludes NICUs.
Expected values are based on indirect standardization to 2009 NHSN catheter-associated urinary tract infection rates.
Abbreviations: CAUTI–catheter-associated urinary tract infection; SIR: standardized infection ratio = Observed/Expected; CI=confidence interval.
