Abstract
“The majority of ACHs reporting 2019 HAI surveillance data continued to report data throughout 2020 (Table 1). Between 86 – 88% of hospitals that conducted surveillance for CLABSI, CAUTI, MRSA bacteremia, or CDI during 2019Q1 or 2019Q2 also reported surveillance data for 2020Q1 or 2020Q2. Larger declines in the number of reporting hospitals were seen for VAE (22 – 25% drop) and SSI (15 – 22% drop) surveillance”.
