Automated surveillance of hospital-onset bacteremia and fungemia: feasibility and epidemiological results from a Dutch multicenter study
Applying a fully automated definition for HOB surveillance was feasible in multiple centers with different data infrastructures, and enabled detection of differences over time at ward and micro-organism-level. HOB surveillance may lead to prevention initiatives in the future.
