Indicadores de calidad en una Unidad de Cuidados Intensivos: dos años de un sistema de vigilancia de la infección asociada a los cuidados sanitarios

Our results are similar to those of other studies using the same methodology. An HAI surveillance system is a key factor for implementing a healthcare quality improvement system. The obtained indicators allow intra-comparison over time and with other similar hospitals, the monitoring of infection control measures, and thus an effective improvement in healthcare quality and patient safety.
