| Research Abstract |
1. This study developed a new methodology to integrate Japan Nosocomial Infections Surveillance (JANIS) data, in which patients can be surveyed for occurrence of hospital-acquired infection, and Diagnosis Procedure Combination (DPC) data with detailed description of claims information. We constructed the foundation for improvement of infection control.
2. By integrating the nationwide multi-institutional JANIS/DPC database, this study quantified the impact of hospital-acquired infection on resource consumption and confirmed risk factors of infection. Also, we conducted face-to-face interviews for participant hospitals and calculated the prevention cost of infection control.
