Would any of you be willing to share with me how you are measuring your central line days? How do you collect the data? Are you measuring in the Critical Care area or throughout the entire hospital? Thanks! Melanie
You can find lots of information on this at http://www.cdc.gov/ncidod/dhqp/nhsn_CLIP_training_text.html. This is the process and form and definitions, etc that are currently being used by the National Healthcare Safety Network, which is the program that replaced the old National Nosocomial Infection Surveillance System at the CDC.
