CDAD
• HPS mandatory surveillance outputs indicate
around 6000 cases per annum
• No trends can be assessed as yet
– there appears to be more in the winter-
probably because more antibiotics are
prescribed in winter - and
– there is variation in numbers of cases
between the NHS boards- although this is
less obvious when standardised for the
population aged 65 years and over by
Health Board
• There have been continuing clusters of cases
and reported outbreaks in NHS boards
2. Contribution of the National
Prevalence survey of HAI in
Scotland for future
developments
National prevalence survey of HAI
– baseline information on the total prevalence of
HAI in Scottish hospitals
– its burden in terms of health service utilisation
and costs
– a consistent methodology which will allow the
evaluation of measures taken to reduce the
burden of HAI
Design of the Survey
• Based on best methodologies from international
epidemiological studies
• Unique because:
– Dedicated team of data collectors
• Independent of hospitals being surveyed
• Highly trained in diagnosing HAI
• Validated diagnoses throughout study
– Investigated the time of year survey undertaken as a factor
affecting HAI prevalence
– Looked at all specialties and all infection types
– Sample of non-acute care (first national level survey in UK)
– Collected information on economic burden of HAI
What was the overall prevalence of
HAI?
• Acute hospitals 9.5% (8.8, 10.2)
• Non-acute hospitals 7.3% (6.0, 8.6)
What type of HAI were found in acute
hospitals?

Prevalence of HAI by ward type
Which organisms were most prevalent?
• CDC definition organism requirement
• Acute hospitals
– 540 microbiology reports for 1243 HAI
– Most common types: Staph. Aureus, C.diff
Antibiotics
• In acute hospitals 32.1% of inpatients
were prescribed one or more
antimicrobials
• In ICU patients 69.8% were prescribed
an antimicrobial and 70% of those on
more than one

Using prevalence results for
infection control planning
• The prevalence of HAI in a population of male patients aged
81+ years in a care of the elderly specialty during November
to January is:
• Hence α = -2.771+0.156+0.847+0.131+0
= -1.637
• Prevalence of HAI = exp (-1.637)/[1+exp (-1.637)]
= 0.195/1.195
=0.163
• Thus the prevalence in this group is estimated to be 16.3%
What is the impact of HAI in terms
of length of stay on NHS activity?
• Those patients with HAI stay in hospital 70%
longer than those without
• Normal LOS varies by specialty:
– 3.2 additional days in obstetrics
– 13.7 days in care of the elderly
What are the costs associated
with HAI in Scotland?
• £183 million per year in Scotland in
acute hospitals in Scotland
• Costs by specialty ranged from:
– £2 million per year in Obstetrics
– £49 million per year in Medicine
How much cost saving might be
anticipated as a result of HAI control?

3. HAI surveillance in ICU
HAI surveillance: elements of a successful system
• Defining what outcomes to measure
• Reliably collecting data in a standardised
manner
• Analysing data for intra/ inter-hospital
comparisons
• Using the data in a timely manner to
improve quality of care

Role of incidence surveillance in US in Monitoring and
Preventing Healthcare-Associated Infections
During 1990-2004, rates of infections from medical devices decreased
Bloodstream infections from central lines decreased by:
54% in medical ICUs
43% in coronary ICUs
43% in surgical ICUs
27% in paediatric ICUs
Trends of ventilator-associated pneumonia rates were assessed and
substantially decreased from 31% to 58% among these same ICU types.
*These data are derived from CDC′s NNIS and NHSN systems
Objectives of national surveillance of ICUAI
Surveillance of :
Ventilator Associated Pneumonia
CVC Related Infections
» Blood stream infections
» Local CVC Infections
» General CVC RI (Clinical sepsis)
Blood Stream Infections (non CVC Related)
At Scottish Level
• Establish a national database of ICUAI surveillance data for Scotland
• To provide a nationally agreed methodology for the collection of ICUAI data
in Scotland
• To provide training, protocols and support for data collection in participating
units
At the EU Level- To contribute Scottish data to the European ICUAI dataset
Timescales
• Data collection for the National surveillance programme
will begin in January 2009
• HPS will receive data for reporting in January/February
2010
• The first annual report of Scottish data will be produced
in Spring 2010
Summary of the Epidemiology
of HAI in Scotland
– HAI affects 1 in 10 in acute care at any one time
– SSI, GI and UTI are most common in acute care
– S. aureus and C. difficile are the most common organisms
– VAP, LRTI and bacteraemia are prevalent in ICU
– 30% of acute care patients and 70% of ICU patients are
prescribed one or more antimicrobials at any one time
– Device, intervention and antimicrobial associated HAI are
where there is the most potential for prevention
– Prevalence survey results have informed future SGHD policy
for tackling HAI and underpin the new HAI task force
delivery plan
• Targeted incidence of HAI surveillance in ICU
– Aligned to Scottish Patient Safety Programme work
