Infection surveillance and hospital-acquired infection (HAI) reporting
Healthcare-associated infections (HAI) are infections that patients acquire during the course of receiving treatment for other conditions within a healthcare setting. According to the CDC, HAIs are one of the top ten leading causes of death in the United States with 99,000 associated deaths each year.
Surveillance is necessary in preventing HAI. Because of the extensive amount of hospital data and analysis required for surveillance, most Infection Preventionists (IPs) do not have the resources to accomplish this effectively.
Orsini is a natural fit for electronic HAI surveillance. Orsini interfaces with your electronic health records to analyze data such as admissions, lab results and procedures to find device and procedure-associated infections as well as infectious diseases listed by the CDC. As an IP, you simply ask Orsini with English-like queries, and Orsini talks to your electronic health record system on your behalf.
