| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Systemic Evaluation of Accuracy of Two-dimensional Carrier Mapping System.
Accuracy of computerized infection control system which visualize intra-hospital bacterial dissemination was investigated using molecular epidemiological methods as the gold standard. 423 bacterial strains from 21 cases including two outbreak cases were analyzed. The computer system based results of analysis were compared with the molecular epidemiological results. An overall strain distinction failure rate was about 30% and evaluated as fair concerning the strains are mainly form sporadic cases and containing fully susceptible strains which the system cannot distinguish. The bacterial resistant rate alone was identified as an influential factor over the failure rate. The results provide scientific foundation for the computerized visualization of intra-hospital bacterial dissemination.
