Disclosed is a method and system for analyzing patient hospitalization data to determine a Nosocomial Infection Marker (NIM), the method comprising receiving from a database hospitalization data associated with at least one patient, calculating from the hospitalization data the number of specimens with non-duplicate hospital isolates (SNDHI) markers, calculating from the hospitalization data antibiotic utilization criteria (AUC) markers, and determining the nosocomial infection marker (NIM) for each patient, based upon the calculated SNDHI and AUC markers.
Description
[0001] Cross-references to related patent applications [0002] This application claims priority on the basis of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 591,561, filed July 27, 2004, and U.S. Provisional Application No. 60 / 678,899, filed May 6, 2005, the aforementioned applications It is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. Background technique [0003] A "hospital-acquired infection" is a localized or systemic disease caused by an adverse reaction to an existing pathogen or its toxin and not present or latent on admission. In the United States, hospital-acquired infections infect approximately 2,000,000 patients and cause approximately 90,000 deaths each year. Hospital-acquired infections are the fourth leading cause of death in the United States, after cancer, stroke, and heart disease. In addition to killing people, hospital-acquired infections cost nearly $14,000 to treat each time, and a total of $28 billion is spent each year on hospital-acquired infections in...
