Designing Surveillance for Noninfectious Outcomes of Medical Care
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 January 2015
Abstract
We present basic information that a hospital epidemiologist needs when designing a surveillance system for noninfectious adverse outcomes of care. Specific topics reflect key characteristics of such a surveillance system: the purpose, rationale, priorities, definitions, data collection tools, data collection, analysis and reporting, and validation.
